I have one of these, paid the higher amount some years ago. Very well made, solid stainless. At the new price, a killer deal.

Just so you know, the click stops are definite; that is, there is little or no ability to set the dial between the click stops to 'interpolate' a thickness increment of say 10 um. So, the smallest practical thickness increment is 20 um. This is not a problem, for most amateur light microscopy sectioning, just thought I would mention it.
