Drew, Thanks for the reply. I would assume the same as you except for 2 thoughts
1. The AHH price may reflect the higher costs Waterford (or any American shop) has. It may NOT reflect higher grade tubing costs, Although one would think the AHH uses "better (higher strength)" tubing the Sam 2. The lack of tubing sticker, like True Temper OxPlatnium, or Reynolds 853, on the AHH may indicate such tubing is NOT used. I think RBW would want you to know it was 853, as an example.. On the positive side, the price difference in the 3 main tubes is about $70 for True Temper OxPlat compared to True Temper Versus (not heat treated, similar to the Sam Silver tubing, ref, Henry James tubing catalog). So perhaps the AHH has the higher strength tubing and more built margin to failure. I thought all RBWs use OS tubes (since early 2000) and I thought the Saluki (and by extension the AHH) used 0.8/0.5/0.8 mm wall thickness John Hawrylak Woodstown NJ On Sunday, November 22, 2015 at 11:14:56 AM UTC-5, drew wrote: > This is just a guess.
