This thread will never end...which is good!
There are lots and lots of really nice paddles that don't fit into the mold of
mass-manufacturing. It was interesting to go to Ham Radio in Friedrichshafen
(Germany) this summer and see a few.
My personal favorite is the WBL Designs vertical paddle. Look at
http://www.qsl.net/k7qo/wbl.html for information.
They're small yet heavy (don't move around), and very affordable when compared
to Schurr, Hensley and others.
In the end, it's like buying a rig or a car, for that matter...individual taste
and feel. Just as rigs 'feel' different and cars drive differently, so do
paddles.
Good Luck!
