Has anyone been able to compare the new HexKey to keys made by Begali or
Schurr? I have a Schurr Portable Wabbler and have had my eyes on the
Graciella Vertical Key. Just wondering how thy compare.

I purchased one upon learning of the availability of them and I've been
using it for about a week and a half now. I cannot make comparisons to
Begali, Schurr or any other of the legendary keys -- I'm used to my
Bencher BY-1 (which is not a bad paddle at all, IMHO), a Vibroplex
single lever paddle, a Vibroplex Iambic paddle (emblazoned with a
Ten-Tec logo a la Elecraft's on the HexKey), a Palm mini-paddle and
that's all I can think of at the moment. I'd rate this HexKey of the
most stable both in terms of weight (it ain't gonna move around and I
slap the paddles fairly hard!) and in terms of holding a minimal spacing
setting, it's the best of the keys I've used.
But if you're in the Begali or Schurr league...I just don't know....
