This year, the Rotary and Executive are 10 years old. Lot's of internal changes have been made to them, but they have been around for 10 years.
I have been badgering Henry for a while now about a beryllium copper run... and including the Executive in this run. Been talking with our machinist about it as well.
I have set aside some of the NB35, 40, 45, and NC57 emitters for this run.
I am still working out details, but the cost would be somewhere between the bronze and titanium (the actual cost is pretty close to what the titanium run cost HDS to produce, but I am trying to get the price down by brow beating the machinist).
Why beryllium copper? Well, Arizona is the copper state and beryllium copper is as tough as it gets for a copper alloy.
Thinking of having something special engraved on the bezel... not sure what yet.
The battery tube may or may not be knurled. I actually would love a hammered look to the entire light, but I don't think that will be possible. Could do the entire light without knurling as well.
So, who would be interested in such a beast?
Most likely it would go like the other special metal runs.
