Got this in for a tip and ferrule replacement. Got me to wondering. Has anyone else noticed the the tenon looking like it was put into a pencil sharpener. I think it created the weak spot along with a thin walled ferrule, but my question is to what purpose it serves. Someone must have felt like it was necessary, but why? Don't want to go into who the maker is, just wondering and hoping to learn why.
