I just happened to look at the reverend brad the other day and saw chefs BH5 and there. But the main reason I knew it was a BH5 is that I REALLY wanted 1! Be picked up switching it's just like the Roscoe back string. And I would imagine a hell of a lot lighter.
Good eye, but not Chef's (RIP). It's a gen 1 Houser that I got in 2003 (OMG! it's been 20+ years?!) :help:

Yeah no doubt lighter, but this one is still 9lbs, 3oz. Not too bad for a fiver, though. Would you believe I passed on a Houser with the "Engine Turned" metal finish on ebay for $650? The seller listed it for two consecutive weeks, no bids. :facepalm:

UGH. I'm pretty much totally broke but I would have found a way to make that happen.
