Thanks Larry, it's just that I've had my eye on that Randall Model8 Trout & Bird knife for a long time now. That and the Model 5 just sorta grabs me? I'm sure you know that "feeling" well.
I've got an Exacta (Varex) that I got from a friend. It was her husbands and he had picked it up in Germany. Got the origional sales recipt, somewhere. I'll see how it compared to the Exa.
Thanks for joining our community! Glad you hooked up with Monty and hope you got/or are getting your question answered. Hope you'll actively participate here- and believe you'll find the more time you spend here, the better you'll like it :)

I saw the Jimmy Stewart story when I was looking up my camera. For some reason, I've never even tried to look it up till I saw your Exa.
Still trying to find out exactly what the type of lens that I have is called. (Preset?, Automatic Preset?, IDK)

Mine has both, as best as I recall, yep, had to dig it out.
Web photo, mine has a 50mm Schneider-Kreuznach Xenon lens (1:1.9)

So what is the "VX"?
(I've got to dig the Exacta book out of storage.)
I've only shot 1 or 2 rolls of film through mine. Had to have the lens repaired not long after I got it. Took good photos too.
