    I like the blade profile on the Special very much, and it looks NOS too. Does the other side of the tang have any stamp on it?
    All three are great scores! Thanks for posting and congratulations on your good luck.

    Judging by the box it came in i don't think it was anywhere close to NOS just whoever had it took really good care of it. It only has SPECIAL on the one side nothing on the reverse.

    On another board I frequent, when someone snags something-- (especially when he snags it at an obscenely low price)-- that causes envy in the rest of us we chime in with a hearty "You suck!". It's not meant literally, rather as a good-natured way of acknowledging that we wish it was us.

    In that spirit, and truly,

    You SUCK. Big time.

    If you're finding fillys at a flea market...you could become a wealthy man flipping them on ebay. The prices are ridiculous. Excellent finds you lucky guy.

    The honing is coming along good, have down all the way to a comfortable shave up to 8K. Its when I use either the coti, Thung, or C12 K that's when my edges become harsh and leave lots of weepers. Not sure whats going on maybe to many laps. Funny though when I use spyderco UF I don't have that problem I did that yesterday on the Diamond and it shaved great. Could have been a one off not sure. Big thanks for the in home lessons though, finally bought the Naniwa SS 5, & 8K love them

    Great scores!

    I agree completely with you on the not wanting to part with the really good ones. I love the hunt but, I don't do it to make a profit.
