Cheaper to make and much easier to machine. There aluminum goose will be sold at undetermined online vendors not directly from them. Also according to what I read models will be matte finish only until they can secure a shop that polishes to their specs. They have gone through numerous shops without success. But on FB they still take orders to them via email.

Head & handle are both aluminum.

I couldn't be bothered with emailing to be on waiting list for it.
A price has not been announced yet. I paid $75 for my AlumiGoose & was told that the next version would be slightly more. I would definitely think it will be sub $100 with my guess being $85.

Agreed and with the modifications I do have a bit of interest...
Just received an email; they expect pricing to be $99 not including shipping.
