In case anyone else was considering stingray as well..


Burgundy stingray/shagreen - minus the diamond eye of course - in a pair of wholecuts or what? Dub monks?

You decide!

Those look great kungapa, and I'm not really a fan of double monks. Wear them in good health.

It's the Ben last, traditional Square.
would you say the ben is the square version of the olfe and vice versa? i.e. about the same level of taper? just with one round, the other square? thanks

I don't have any hands-on experience with any of the lasts apart from the Hiro, so I'll let someone else help you with this question.

Does anyone else think the straps on the DMs are a tad long? Or am I just crazy?

Seems to me the Ben is the soft square version of the Hiro. I would be more willing to compare the Hiro and Ben.
