    I wouldn't get it there if you get it. Current conversion rates have that big king at $26 at tools from japan.

    (so the rutland's price on sale is still three times as much as tools from japan).

    I bought one of those a few years ago from TFJ when the conversion rate wasn't as good, I guess eager to relieve my early days woodworking (I started with kings) and the total take with shipping was about $50 back then.

    I kind of wish I hadn't bought it!! it's messy. Wouldn't be so bad with a razor, but with tool pressure, it's a mess maker.

    The conversion rate for Canadians is even worse.. I wouldn't buy it from either as of now..
