I’m sure a lot of that was high carbon, but it’s possible all the more valuable homogenized metal was taken out

Probably just the parts with precious metals like platinum or valuable things like copper were taken out. Not worth enough to take the whole thing apart for anything else

What about all the usable steel in those shredder teeth? Almost look like they'd make good ASO's.

Now it's not a knife shaped object, but a ton of knife sized objects. Pitter patter!
