What a stunning piece of Art			Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
This was a fantastic Christmas present from the missus, Xmas 2024. I have been after one of these keys for some months while Yury UR5CDX upgraded his workshop. Finally on 18 December he had them in stock on his website, so she bought one. I received it on Saturday, 28 December. It was £164.93 including delivery, I think it’s fabulous value for money. It came in it’s legendary packing, with two screws underneath holding the key so it’s held in place, all the cardboard used is strong including the sides which fold over the key, which then slides into the box, this then sits within 20mm thick polystyrene in the outer box, it really is excellent packing. You can't take your eyes off the architecture, the design and engineering is superb, and the polished brass is just beautiful, it really is a stunning piece of Art. I found it was set-up with a bit more resistance on the paddles than I would have liked, but I stuck with it, as Yury will have set it up, and my sending just seemed to flow so naturally. I also love how the paddles are close to the table enabling you to send in a very relaxed manner. So it not onIy looks fabulous, but it sends Morse so accurately, and that's including the iambic characters too. With the pressure you put on the paddles, because the key weighs 1.3Kg, there is absolutely no movement at all. I have tried it for several days and I believe this is the best dual paddle I have ever used. It is engineered to the highest standard, that rivals the very best, I would highly recommend this key, it is the best £164.93 my wife has ever spent on me!

Professional engineering design and construction			Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I have used many keys over my 40 years in the hobby including straight, Bencher, and Begali to name a few all of which were good keys. I'm partial to dual paddle keys. But this one will be my primary due to the weight, construction, and usability / operating characteristics. No tools needed - It has a magnet and fine screws for adjustments and is so smooth to operate almost like it was custom made for my fingers. Therefore it comes highly recommended and didn't take but 10 working days to come from Ukraine where it is made by Yury UR5CDX who does a superior job. You won't be disappointed.
