Wild edge stepp defective?

[Jay_Disarray]

Decided to grab a single wild edge step to use as a platform. It came in the mail today but I was looking at it and noticed this is how the bottom point that butts against the tree looks.

Is this defective or how they come?

not in my experience. Some are like that, some are not. That does allow any moisture that may be in there to drain.

I have had my stepps for a couple years now. The majority of mine have the same opening.

Good to know, just wanted to make sure before I put trust in a product. Thank you

Never seem these steps in person but that should be a weep hole

 

[WannaBMonkey]

All of mine are like that.

Be confident. All of mine are like that as well. Like someone said, probably a well thought out weep hole so it does not hold moisture and rust from the inside.

As stated above, they are designed that way to allow water to drain. I also use a compressor and shoot air into that hole to help get the bark plugs out.
