Hello Everyone!
After reading UpsideDownCarl's (and others') posts about OSP blades, I decided the Virtuoso + would be a good fit for me. I love my Michael Maze's handle, size, and most of the playing characteristics, but I really fell (back) in love with the all-wood feel of my mid-2000s Korbel after coming back from nearly a decade off from serious play. I wanted a blade with that all wood feel, but also wanted to buy something I would be proud of (i.e., handmade, excellent reputation, etc) and something that would leave little room for EJ-thirsting for a better all-wood blade. I haven't had a chance to try it out yet (but I will by Thursday), but I can say the aesthetics, ergonomics, and build-quality are pretty great.
