February 18, 201312 yr Hi all, Long time lurker. I registered to ask a question about the Hiro HM-07: http://www.hiro-mats.../seihin/HM.html . What exactly details handmade? I know that everyone has their own definition of what constitutes 'handmade' -- does anyone have any idea of what Hiro deems 'handmade'? The '07' style shows up in various lines, so I am wondering how say a MG-07 differs from an HM-07. I've also done a ton of searching and I am trying to get an idea on the clubs value. I know the site lists the MSRP as something crazy, like $3,100. What is realistic used, but in good condition, value? Thanks! Edited February 18, 201312 yr by bmrowe
