OK, I watched a rather extended commercial on TV tonight sprooking these knife sharpeners which worked out at, 40 bucks plus 10 bucks delivery or $50.00 all up. I decided to check them out on E-bay. Well I have just ordered one for $14.29 all up including delivery. All right from Hong Kong it will be 3 or 4 weeks but I can ware that for a 35 buck saving. My darling keeps saying, "Can you sharpen this for me please", which means getting the key, opening the work shed, starting the grinder, Etc, Etc, Etc.                     If this makes me ORDINARY, so what.     

Here it is........Simmo.

Happy New Year Young Simmo and all the best for 16. Keep up your posts.

Cheers

Thanks ballast2, I really get a kick out of Grey Nomads and the 1000 other sites I dribble in. We sure are a  lucky generation. What really puzzles me is, what will the world be like in another 50 or 100 years considering what has happened in the last 50 years. It is spooky to think about, so I will stick to today as I reckon I have something like 20 minutes to 20 years, and because life is a lottery I enjoy every day I am lucky enough to JAG.

Cheers mate......Simmo.

Looks good Let us know how it performs when you get it

Be very handy on the road when you don't have the workshop with you IF it works
