I agree it's a nice one. I mean, they got the grain and the seams down perfectly. But one that old with that kind of edging on the whole? C'mon...there should be a lot more wear or petina.

I bought one from a sketchy dude a few years ago and I thought I was buying a gx-720 but it just looked like that on the outside. It really had a hk-230 bearing set. I was so pissed. Cost me a fortune too.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

If any of that were true, you'd know it's "geurilla". Gorilla warfare is an entirely different, and usually unnecessary, matter.

I refuse to believe you are this stupid and new. You know exactly what a fingerbox is, you've looked it up.

It may very well be hand made but it ain't vintage. That shit has "distressed to look old" all over it. I bet it came out of a sweatshop in Pakistan.

I'm really not that rich, a couple were gifts and I got one off some newfag who didn't know what it was. I had it appraised for 2000 dollars, not much for a fingerbox I know but it's not bad.

How fitting, found this old mass-production fingerbox at my parent`s. Is it worth the effort to open it up or should i just get a new one from the flea market?

>>687522032
I love seeing the rounded ones, i think they look better. it's a shame the square ones are worth more.
>>
>>687526148
Times are changing, I guess people like you just don't know the joy of full personal calibration, the freedom is gives you, they just want the simplest product to use, like take the tg670! I mean come on! You could operate it in your sleep!
>>
>>687526620
You just can't put a price on a good fingerbox. Each one is unique, and fingerbox making is one of the most high skilled and lucrative crafting jobs. The quality of a solid fingerbox is unparalleled.
>>
>>687526148
The digital fingerboxes weren't All what they were cracked up to be. I still prefer wooden ones.

You have to be putting me on. I've been a carpenter for 15 years and I have never once heard of a fingerbox let alone met anyone who crafts them. I gotta call bs on this

>>
>>687527625
OK man, you keep believing that. Some fingerboxes are worth so much because they're very old. The high quality ones are made to last for decades. I once heard of someone who sold one for 15000 to some museum.
>>
>>687527625
It's a very niche art form, and not very well known in North America or Europe, so that's probably why

the earliest fingerboxes reach back to the yamato period, trough trade the frist replica`s on western continents were the saxon "Finker Kästschen", then only owned by the upper class. Later in the industrial revolution, finger-boxes were made available to the masses, due to various circumstances, they vanished into oblivion until recent ages, where they reached great value on the antique market due to high collector`s interest.

Ok asshole, i was trying to help. Now its your problem. Also this site is rated mature. You have to acknowledge and agree that you're over eighteen the first time you visit. If you are taking this big of an interest and what your son is looking at on the internet you should probably go look in the mirror and ask yourself why you didn't put any fucking parental controls on your internet.
