Reply to comment by Gauge45 in PsBattle: An old oak tree by fakeaccount572

To me, it looks like someone cut a very valuable burl off the tree, which is a previous heal. They are valuable to woodworkers and are sometimes poached by assholes.

Definitely just storm damage. If someone cut it, you'd see a solid surface that the saw cut through. Idk where reddit gets the idea that people commonly poach burls for woodwork, lol it literally never happens where I live/work

You are 100% correct, this was obviously storm damage and not a cut.
