Shimano Headset HP-6207 tool

[Robert McCormac]

My wife has a Shimano HP-6207 Headset from the mid-eighties, the one with the starfish lock nut. I'd like to find the wrench that fits it. Does anyone know of an online seller of obscure tools who might have one? (Loose Screws doesn't have one).

Failing that, does anyone know of another Shimano 1" headset from that era that would have the same stack height, but not the odd starfish nut?

Thanks for the quick answer! I didn't know the tool also fits Dura Ace-- I typed HP 6207 headset tool into google and didn't get a hit.
