After scouring the internet and forums for weeks, and sifting through the many rusty, beat up Red Imps out there. I was extremely fortunate enough to find these two beauties! Which finally arrived. One is over at Lynns being honed..I posted pics before in the forums, but those were the sellers pics. These are in my hands...:nj

Above is the Morris Red Imp 133 in NOS condition...
And here is the Case Red Imp 132.........
I think I did pretty good picking up these two siblings.....

Very nice, dare I say they look Imp-eccable?
I know. Its hard to believe they're as old as they are....the 132 seems to be restored, but the 133 is in NOS condition, I almost don't want to use it...here it is with the box. And those aren't scratches on the blade, its vaseline to prevent rust. I have to go buy some oil.....Attachment 91428Quote:

So for a few minutes, out was actually up for grabs..So, place an ad in WTB, and keep checking ebay.. The Case models are hard to come by in NOS, but NOS Morris' have been popping up on ebay, frequently...
Keep checking..
