Those are nice, Lenn. I only have one older one that washed up in my Moms backyard with the last flood.  Not really functional, but a wall-hanger.
I do have a modern one(can't remember the manufacturer but it was u.s. based) given to me years ago that I use in the winter. These are great cutting machines, set up properly and sharp. And quiet, dust free and zero emissions- depending on the operator's diet. My only complaint is with only an 18" reel it takes a while to cut the lawn. And honestly the aren't too much more work than a regular gas push mower to me.
