No, sorry.Any prototype pics?
V7 and R1 will be separate lines in different price segments.Curious to know the differences between this and hapstone V6 and v7. Why now make an r1? Will the r1 continue where the v7 leaves off or will it be a new completely separate version?
I would be happy to comment what exactly you don't like in R1. Target price $499 with 2 primary modules.the R1 from the concept drawing doesn't look as well constructed. Curious at what price range it will be at.
Didn't say I didn't like it. I am just struck by how much your rotating clamp system looks almost identical to the other Russian system.I would be happy to comment what exactly you don't like in R1. Target price $499 with 2 primary modules.
StabilityWasn't it another version of your sharpener, that you added a clamp to... that caused it to tip over in use? Hard to tell from your drawings here, but seems to me that the front legs should be under the clamp area more than they are, to prevent this.
Thank you!I have a Hapstone myself. Good sharpener, like it a lot. But only because it offers better quality for a lower/same price. EP now feels like a plastic toy. But I have a feeling that this model will not sell well. Wicked edge we130 model costs almost the same(525 US) WITH 100,200,400,600 stones and in general, it is more user-friendly than any other system.
