That is true although my collection of Sages is small :-)

I agree that not all of his tools are great. Ed bought one of his hackle pliers when they came out and I tried it but didn't like it. I own several different hackle pliers and have yet to find anything better than these for my kind of tying:

I also tried his vise when Ed bought it and thought it was totally over engineered!
