Yes...after shipping and tax $84 and change....
The pin in the end cap spring positioner is in the wrong position most likely. Is there tension when lifting? What you'll do is compress the spring until the retainment (travel) peg in the handle is free from the base. (the peg sets in the center of the star blade and travels through a groove in the base) Or you can turn the end cap spring positioner to pull the pin. Let me know. I can direct you if you like.That one looks to be in better shape than mine above for sure. I haven’t messed with it but the spring doesn’t spring…so I’ll have to figure that out.
Cool, that makes sense. When I get some time to clean it up I'll take a look. Glad to know it's adjustable. May need a soak in penetrating oil.

So that's great! I thought there would be more. Nice! If you want, give us a share after you get it cleaned up. (yours is in better shape)Got it pulled apart while siting on a conference call, the end of the spring was broken, luckily it was broken at 180 degrees from the original point, so I was able to stretch and reassemble and it cuts. It is really dirty and needs sharpening but it works now! Thanks Marc!
