Would be great if those of us with the older, fidgety honer were
offered some sort of trade-in deal.

Hi -

Believe it or not - we discussed that here, but the only way we could do it,
would be to pad the price so we'd have room to discount it. Then again -
it's not as much of an upgrade, as it is a new tool.

As we've produced the other for more than two decades - it's tough to eat
the loss on a trade in deal...

But we'll re-consider if we change it again 25 years from now....
