<p>[QUOTE="alex webb, post: 661803, member: 10737"]i get the impression there have been chisels in costa rica for a few hundred years. i do at times try to figure out the logic of a piece. was it valued by the person who did the crappy job of marking it up? would a faker not use a lighter hand to make it look more real. thats easier. was the person using it as a utilitarian item to mark the days for instance on something he had at hand maybe found by him and little valued. i guess its something you have tested scientifically if you really want to know how old it is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
