First of many bad signs is the low pull nail nick on the blade. You won't find a low pull with real tested stamped blade. Down hill from there.
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

If your religion requires that you hate someone, you need a new religion.

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.
