hey folks. just bought this off Craigslist today. First question is easy - is this the famed "blue/black"? looks primarily black to me but the sheen level plays some tricks..
2nd question - tricks/tips with burning? I currently use the F3 without any problems, i love it (but small firebox) - i see a few threads with complaints about the Oslo (ash, smoke, draw, etc). Should i chalk these up to poor habits, or is there something truly less-than-great about the Oslo?
(**paid $250 for this stove, no cracks or damages that i can see. Was told it is approx 8 yrs old**)
