I actually had one on order from CR, but then I found out the design of the wings had changed. I always loved the the way the swept back tips look, but he does not sell them like that anymore. He only sells a single taper version which, IMO, kinda ruins the looks. Anyway, I cancelled the order (Charlie was cool about it, as they were backlogged anyway) My friend's is the older swept tip version.
