I just found a use Paragon E9AX for $225, looks like new but is loser model and missing thermocouple. Just looking for feedback on cost and suitability for small HT oven.

New, those are running around $700 give or take. My issue with it (aside from the fact that it's small... only 9") would be the a analog control....not very accurate, and it would be very difficult to do any blades that required a "ramp/hold" scenario (like just about any stainless).
For me it wouldn't be worth it, but that's me. YOU have to decide if it's something you can use.

Thanks. My wife does jewelry also so that made it a little more tempting, but we decided to pass.

missed a deal. i have an E9A i bought for similar price. although top temp is only 1700F, it works fine for high carbon steels with a max blade length of 12". a new thermocouple, display, and connectors should be less than $50 from McMaster/Carr http://www.mcmaster.com/#thermocouples/=13ia9ke.
