0 nakulendu Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 eight if perfectly pointed or absolutely new. Can be no limits when in use (under microscopic examination if required). That is assuming no chips/ dents on the body otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
