Thank you Ark! It has a slight, but unmistakeable, secondary bevel. By the way, in the unlikely event that anyone cares, I'm only selling one of these, whichever goes first.

But its nice to have a choice isn't it?

I certainly didn't mean to set off such a "fire Storm" by my comments. I certainly do believe in free economy where any one is free to obtain what the market is willing to bear. I do not criticise anyone for selling anything at any price. I was simply stating how a limited supply of coveted items coupled with a large demand can cause prices to increase. "My" solution as stated is to buy only from the makers and avoid resellers. I will buy from collectors rarely. A small group of individuals with a limited supply of items can "corner" the market and inflate prices. As an example, Robert Hagg single handidly cornered the market for meteorites by buying everything he could find and prices skyrockted. I did not comment on Emerson's methods of doing business nor condone them. Dealing directly with the makers, avoiding resellers and waiting for the product, has worked for me in 30 years of collecting.
