A nice grab on eBay.
I won this one on eBay yesterday afternoon. Not bad for $35. I'll give it a good cleaning and send it off for honing.

Nice grab indeed, whatta classic! I'd like to hone that one for sure.

My Keen Kutters are all very nice shavers. They are also easy to hone. Good catch!

Thanks guys. Glad to see I didn't buy junk. I noticed the edge has a bit of a smile to it.

Good one. I like the smiles, though I'm not as much a fan of the type of smile your blade has (the smile from heal to toe with the max width near the toe, as opposed to the center of the blade being the widest and a curve up to both ends). The only real reason is I like more clearance over my thumb; but once blade meets face, all smiles feel wonderful.
That is a great looking blade, and I love the writing on the bit above where the spine meets the hone.

Thanks, everyone. I got it in today (Actually Wednesday, but I'm on nights...). Let me tell you, this thing's big! The blade is 6/8 and it's 9.5" long, overall.
