OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Finding and Swapping Rare Finds & Donations A Very Interesting Edger!

I went to visit a friend of mine the other day, and whilst there, he showed me this old edger he had in the back shed, it's quite an interesting one, does anyone know more about it?

The manufacturer plate was missing, all i can say is that it had a 2-stroke Kirby-Lawson engine, and used steel-core rubber sheath rope instead of blades, which, judging by the brackets used for the rope, is how it was supposed to work, not a tenant fix.

Here is some pictures, sorry for the quality, I only had my phone with me.

By memory, we worked out the engine to be late 60's from the serial, but I can't find the paper i noted it down on.
