There was one on ebay about two months ago, and it was gorgeous.
Came apart in 5 pieces just like a wooden clarinet.

In the late 40's I knew a guy with a pair of Selmer metal
clarinets. They
came apart just like the wooden ones. I have tried for years to
find one
(knowing that people consider metal inferior). I have had no
success.
