Kinked rotor blade

Robinson r22 dash 4 stainless type blades

I have found a very small kink on the trailing edge 5ft from the hub. No idea how this has happened.

Machine six months old, 205 hours TTSN, Never left outside in windy conditions.

No heavy landings

The kink is on the top of the blade and looks like its been hit with a piece of timber on edge.

Any ideas how this has happened?
