    Kinda looks like a scratch!!!
    Photos can trick your eyes though.

    It does indeed.

    That said, I can't help but to think the idea of classifying minor breaks as something special (per the CoC website) is a bit much. Cuds or other areas of reasonable significance, of course, but the point will come where this is more of a turn off to the new than a reason to become involved.

    Kudos to those willing to invest their time into categorizing this stuff, though. :)

    Yeah I know it does. I can't quite seem to get a picture showing it raised, but it is indeed a crack.

    Yes everyone has their expertise though. It may be too small to list.

    Of course, and everyone has their own opinions. This is mine, and is neither right nor wrong.

    Realizing my micro lens would not suffice to prove it is a SKH and not a scratch I busted out my old microscope. I am sorry if I have become annoying, just trying to get these varieties recognized so people who want to look for them, like me, can.
