Maybe this guy will buy them, though: https://www.reddit.com/r/lampwork/co...se_a_beginner/

I wanted a new lathe or a Herbie but maybe I might just get these instead.

Also these look suspiciously clean

I've heard of people brazing new random junk blades on thrashed rare or expensive jacks and passing them off as "new". But this has to be a joke.

Dino was the best tool maker in the world. He died and you can't get them anymore. My friend has a pair from itally. They are nice and they last forever. I mean it isn't uncommon to have someone using there grandfathers tools in murono.
They probably cost a lot to begin with because you have to fly to murono to have them made as well like 20 years ago.
I hardly ever use my jacks anymore.
But Dino jacks are usually stamped and not signed by Dino.

Thank you so much for that insight

Back in the late 90’s someone I know went to Italy and brought back Dino jacks.
Not really sure how he is doing now.
Like I said unless I make a cup I don’t use them.

Yeah those are not rusty or stamped like mine.
Carlo Donna took over for Dino. That’s his stamp. Dino just said DINO on it.
