Something I've never understood... why is the HL1 crowbar so SMOOTH???  It would have been less polys to make the handle hexagonal like a real crowbar, right???

Funnily enough, at an earlier point it HAD some actual texture! They probably wanted to get some mileage outta the wacky chrome system in GoldSrc by the time the game shipped though hah

if you see the grey part is kinda hexagonal. I think the whole crowbar is hexagonal like its just a fact of perspective also the brighter lines on the red part are where the edges are
