Hi there Marc, I first noticed it on Optics Planet and thought it was a fluke but now I just spotted it on Amazon also with “new 2018 model” descriptor. On the Optics Planet product page there is even a customer service rep stating that it is a WE320 in reply to a customer query. Any insight into this?

It appears the Gen 3 Pro has gone from model WE300 to WE320 in 2018, can somebody please comment on what the difference is?

Thanks a bunch guys, this is the info that I really enjoy, people with experience sharing their wisdom. Those points you raised about the longer rods hadn’t occurred to me I am so glad I asked. I reckon I will stick with the stock gen 3 rods until I get the hang of it on my smaller knives.

Thanks Organic, great to be here! Where did you end up, do you miss OR much? I was going to ask in the main forum, I searched to no avail but is there a downside to getting the 12″ guide rods and just leaving them on all the time even when not sharpening my ESEE Junglas? It would seem to me the extra length would made your strokes more stable even on smaller knives as you wouldn’t have to worry about getting too close to the end of the stock rods. Just a thought from someone with zero experience thus far…

Hi there MarcH, I jumped in with all feets and got a Gen 3 Pro. I’m quite excited about it too I must admit!
