Hi Jim,

I can't believe this one hasn't been solved yet. I still believe it has a utilitarian purpose rather then a gory one. Last time this came up it got me looking at some of my blades, and I found this 'dent' on one of my British 1796. To my eye it may have had a similar purpose?

All the Best
Jeff
