- Abstract
The author discusses a study by C. Crowder and colleagues on microscopic analysis of sharp force trauma in bone and cartilage. He mentions that Crowder and colleagues misrepresented an article by N. Petraco on the use of jeweler's modeling waxes in making known test impressions of exemplar tools. Topics include difficulty in distinguishing the three classes of knife blades, their failure in mentioning the category or brand of wax, and toolmark casework being a complex forensic discipline.
