I think that is the k1 caliper which is black as standard, tokico 0,1 and two are usually sandcast up until late K0, THEN I RECON THE Tokico 3 is k1 , this is just a casting number i think, the calipers are essentially the same

Not seen that one.

Is it one of Mike Nixon's sites?

He clearly has the knowledge. All he needs is someone who understands website design.  That would look perfect as a blog with properly managed photos.
