In general this is all moving so much slower than I wanted. But, it's what we're capable of so I guess that's that. We're going as fast as we can 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napzor123 Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 I understand completly, you doing great. Is there any real risk of you running out of the first ones, gold and iron, before the you reached silver? I don’t want to make multiple international orders… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex K Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Guys if you still haven’t purchased the updated Standards I highly recommend to do so! They’re insanely well made. The handles are slightly smaller in diameter, similar to CoCs (around 19mm, half a millimetre smaller). I enjoy closing them much more with this handle diameter, feels just right in my hand! The pins are so well-placed and clean that I’m wondering how the hell they were put in there without scuffing the handles at all Super-sturdy design, no slipping handles or malfunctioning glue, as pioneered my Mr. Tetting! Although the pervious lineup is discounted and sort of a collectible now, I’ll be swapping it for the new one when the other resistances come out! 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to picking up a Standard Platinum to fill a similar gap on the way up to my Standard Iron (RGC 135). 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C8Myotome Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Yes the new handles are a bit thinner and nicer...makes the original standards feel more like RB now 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The type of knurling we use is formed not cut. Cut knurling exists but we couldn’t get it to look good. So both Tom and Justin used formed knurling which means the machine squishes up the points. So knurling a bar actually slightly increases the final diameter. Tom just ran the knurling right on the 3/4” bar stock which brought just slightly above 3/4”. Tetting did this as well so the old Standards are very similar to Tetting handle thickness. For Justin, he had to turn down a consistent surface onto the bar so the knurling would be uniform and track well. This slightly reduces the initial diameter below 3/4” and then the formed knurling brings it back up to 3/4”. Keen eyes all around. That is the slight difference you’re noticing. We greatly appreciate the review @Alex K. Thank you so much. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have handles made for Pt, Co, Sn and Zn. They have been at the finishing company for 2 weeks! Their turnaround has been much better than that so this is surprising. Although this whole re-issue project has been filled with so many surprises that maybe we shouldn't be surprised anymore. All four of those levels will come one right after the other and it just has to be August and likely soon. The finishing company could call any day that the parts are done. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the update, Matt! So is this chart from an old blog post still a good estimate for average ratings we may see? Just curious...

The 170 to 180 space is pretty well-serviced and 180+ less so. I think Titanium would be better up there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
