Yo My Brother Whoosh!!! I have been eyeballing Stag honers for quite some time. It is nice to see you have made the leap. I wasn't even aware of the model 2 one you picked up. I didn't notice it on stropper.com before either - only the one with the big wheel. So, I have learned about the differing models here tonight - thank you sir!!! I have no experience with them, but they look like a great design really. I think they might well be excellent tools for sharpening wedgies. I suspect you are going to become the resident expert with these!! Congrats on the acquisitions. I must admit I am a little jealous! Looking forward to hearing about you honing up some steel!!! I guess you are holding the 'stag' now!!

So, you're the one who outbid me by 55 cents! Tell me, what was your bid, if that wasn't a secret I don't know why the listed it as "star honing..." Let us know it they work.

aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh! WTH you guys are dropping the ball today! I bid low on everything and usually lose around 95% of the stuff I bid on but for some reason I'm not losing today. You guys better start bidding I can't afford all the stuff I put a bid on .....Well I least now I have some wedge blades to put my new Stags to use with. Now I just need some better hones cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370318784089&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:ITwill post proper pictures in the "wilkinson 7 day set" thread when I get this and let you know what kinda shape it is in.

Very nice catch!!!! I don't feel bad for you getting that one dood! That is a very nice razor. I have been watching for one for a while now but often they are sort of scratched up or there are people all over them with bids. Excellent price. Very nice.

I was following the large single wheeled one actually. I was quite interested in it. But, unlike you folks in the USA, the postage to me was an additional 15.00usd and not free. That makes a heck of a difference when you are bidding on something. That would make that one you picked up over 40us for me just to keep going against you. Dratts!!! Free shipping!!

Thank you I hope it arrives as nice as it was described I e-mailed the seller to verify a few things in writing so we will see when it arrives. It wasn't so much that I won that particular item it was that I won 3 items in less than 24 hours that had me gasping I was following the large single wheeled one actually. I was quite interested in it. But, unlike you folks in the USA, the postage to me was an additional 15.00usd and not free. That makes a heck of a difference when you are bidding on something.

Overseas shipping maybe but it doesn't cost any more money to ship to Canada just a form needs to be filled out big whoop. .......though that does make one less competitor sorry mate maybe next time

I would be happy to have an item you bid on mailed to me.. after a proper test time it could then be forwarded to Canada at a better rate. Fuzzy

I will leave that one alone. Nope can't do it.... I agree with you on Bush Jr. but would say the same is true of the current Prez.
That's why the 2 party system SUCKS!
