Loki:
You could try Hector Cole adb.

Ian.:
I get them from Richard Head, she sells a 'type 10' 3/8 and a 1/2 Tudors. They are both good and very cheap, the Tudors can be a little heavy but you can grind them a little to get them close to a forged weight. I have been using them for years and they are well worth the money.

I have bought heads from Hector Cole. Only problem is, they're bloody expensive by the time they cross the pond and after I pay exchange. They are works of art, however.

Grain run offs are bad news, first because of potential breakage, and second because if grain is not straight, the shaft will warp easily. It is best to have a selection of shafts and reject any and all with grain run-off.
