    The mammoth molar is really quite striking and the teeth/molars are among the most complex of any mammal. They are composed of plates of dentine surrounded by enamel. A series of these plates (crown) held together by dentine makes up a tooth. The number of plates in each tooth is determined by species and the age of the tooth.

    No, I dont do folders as they require other/more equipment needs than the fixed blades do.
