Detlef, this explanation is a very possible one indeed and perhaps more likely than a new blade that has been aged, given what we can see in these photographs. But from the quality of the images to the massive amount of oil on the blade it is not very easy to tell one way or another if this is an altered old blade, but it is certainly one way that this creation may have come into being.
