Bom Dia, Franco,

He is selling these keys:

I have a Begali Blade straight key ($179.00) and 
an ARRL Cennential Key ($175.00).  

The Begali Blade is a straight key.  Reviews are here:

The ARRL Centennial Key is a dual paddle manipulator for electronic keyer:

The Centennial Key seems to not available anymore, but a special Begali paddle is available now.

The Centennial of ARRL was 2015, so maybe the special Vibroplex key was only solid in 2015.

Hello Richard,

Welcome to the CW reflector.

I know that you prefer the keys you're keeping but I know that all of Piero's keys are works of art but they all have different feel to them.

Could you give us a little comparison between the Begali Blade and the Begali Arrow?

I know that the price difference is about double.

The Arrow is €399.00.

The Blade is €198.00

I have used the Postal key and I found it heavy not responsive like a good key should be.

I have used Piero's high end keys - particularly his cootie key - Sculpture Swing - Stainless steel high performance cootie key with magnetic return which has a price of €460.00 and it's everything a cootie key should be.

For the five minutes I used it, it was better than any key that I'd ever used, but for €460.00 I could put up with the deficiencies of the Bunnell Double Speed key, or the modified Vibrokeyer, or the nice but unobtainable Kungsport Import or equally unobtainable G3HGE's TWanger.

I prefer the Nye Viking / Johnson type keys or if I don't go USA style, I like the PS-213A type - the real ones are rare but worth finding.
