Remeshok Chetki - Ultem Beavertail Editions
Remeshok Chetki - Ultem Beavertail Editions
The Ultem Beavertail Edition of the popular Remeshoks feature an elongated end bead, tapered to a stout thickness at the outer end, and rounded for a comfortable experience. They have a sleek appearance, but it's not just aesthetics. These extended ends have a somewhat surprising effect of locking the ends into place between the fingers. They are narrow enough to slip through the fingers with ease, but when there is tension at an angle, the beads act like a lever. This effectively prevents them from slipping through the fingers when you don’t want them too, and also creates a springiness as the tension is absorbed and released during play.
Since the Beavertails are longer than any end beads we’ve launched to date, we’ve found it wise to shorten up the length of the joining section between the ends. For the new Beavertail mods, we’ve trimmed it down to 16+2. The overall length in each case is similar.
Ultem
Ultem has been a massive crowd favourite since we first starred producing products in it, despite being significantly pricier than other polymer materials. It is durable and lightweight, though slightly heavier than acrylics, but what really distinguishes ultem is the characteristic amber colour.
The Ultem Beavertail chetki are available in your choice of a lovely soft machine finish, or a grippier and brighter polished finish. Please be aware that polished pieces don’t hold their polish indefinitely, and will scratch up relatively quickly. Although the material has a good hardness, it is nonetheless a plastic and even a loud noise may scuff it a little. All pieces are shipped new but may have small abrasion marks on them from the post production handling and assembly process. Any pieces with major scratches will be kicked out by our team before packing, but we ask for your understanding of smaller shallower marks, particularly on the long end pieces.
