I think I would trade an SM3 for a Torpedo, just to compare. That's what I can't get my hands on here. I'd really like to know where our received understanding of SM numbering originates, particularly with respect to 8's and 9's. tw-db doesn't even address it.
excellent find! Those SM7's are very nice, at least the one I tried out at MTE was. Very comparable in feel to the early SM9's, but they look cooler (:
Yet another! Yes, that's an SM7. Did you buy it?
ReplyDeleteNever EVER seen one of these in the wild. Had to go way out of my way for my Olympias. Nice find!

I've been admiring that as it's slowly come down in price but man that is still way high for me. However, for the SM3? sure! which one?
