Weirdest thing I've seen. None of those are scratches or abrasions. Looks wire brushed , but that's in the metal. Did the best I could with the loop shots. Hand isn't that steady tonight, my apologies.

I believe it would be considered a Woody. The tell-tale sign is the direction that the anomalous lines run in on either side. It is not a dramatic Woody, but I think it is one.

I'll settle for that. Whether it is or not, it's weird. Looks like mokume.

It does, but it is/was not intentional. All the better...

I call them Woodsy Owls. They are woodsy, but they don't see well in bright light (yes, I know that's only a myth).

A weird way to say kinda.

It's a Woody and it's a nice one! Nice find and congratulations! Also known as an Improper Alloy Mix. http://www.error-ref.com/improper-alloy-mix/
