"Diffused" lighting was used for these photos, to reduce glare and better show color and detail.  The tooth's enamel will appear more glossy in person, than it does in the photos.

Description - I know what you're thinking.  Where's the hook?  It looks more "angled" than "hooked."  If you look at the root though, it looks planus, though it could be some species variation.  More likely it's simply a jaw position that has less hook.  The tip has slight damage/smoothing.  The blade edges are nice, except for some missing enamel on the back, near the root.  The root has some slight surface erosion, especially right root tip, but is otherwise complete and undamaged.
