I've just been thinking about this Cap'n.

Here's my take (and bear with me).....

Whatever happened to make that buck lose his tines is part of his "legend". I've got one at the taxi right now with a missing G2. How'd it happe? Big fight??? Other??? If you repair that tine....you've taken that story away from him. I don't wanna do that. To me he'd be LESS with the repairs. As-is....he's got some "legend" status.

I couldn't repair it if I didn't find it.
