toad-mon,

be sure to read all the threads on Stillwaters; especially on how to batten down the pleats on a Standard. personally, i can say the SK's are an excellent value. i have two SK-S's, an SK-H and considering the new SK-H Black Shadow. i receive numerous compliments on them.

keep in mind the SK Standard is a bit flighty in a breeze! all precautions, ahem, and proprieties, should be maintained!
