[CW] NATO Key - A Bit Scraped Paint

[Valery Pakhomov via CW]

Hello everybody,

I have got such NATO key in my collection and I work on it from time to time but
, as my wife said, it is very noisy.

  Hello guys and dolls,

  A really good key nice and heavy and works very well - you have to send with
  your arm like Irish, UK, Scandanavians, and Japanese do - also places where
  the Brits used to be like Singapore, and Hong Kong.

  With the EU to USD ratio being very good, this is a fairly good buy
  especially if you don't mind the paint chipping.

  I don't know the fellow, but usually these keys go for $125-$185.00.

  I think the colors usually are light blue.

  I wish the seller had started at GBP 50 instead of GBP 74.99, as I'm picky
  about paint and covers. This has the cover, but the scrapes indicate it's
  been abused somewhere - probably in storage somewhere.

  Anyone else like this key?
