I'll do that soon enough.

That's a nice looking 2072.
The old stuff is fascinating. Maybe variety has something to do with it. Speaking for chainsaws, they are currently not fundamentally different. 30-40 years ago was a very different story.

I see some evidence of that kind of wear already. The Haban is truly a monster for an underslung deck. That sort of weight belongs with the Woods mowers that you hang under vintage tractors.
