    Default Oh My

    I saw that one earlier today. It is higher now than when I saw it.
    What's the deal? The seller even mentions a crack. Is there something special about it?

    That particular type of two sided Norton, with the oval imprint, is considered the bees' knees for some reason for competitive axe-men. Pretty much every one of those Nortons goes for about $600. If you find one, I suggest you sell it before they discover Shaptons or some other next big thing to give them their competitive "edge."

    That explains it. The Taswegians have a few champion axe- men amongst them. Interesting they use a razor hone. Glad they don't use Eschers

    And given what they are willing to pay for Nortons, no one here is going to tell them about Eschers or any of our other favorite toys!
