Hammer prices?

Hi Dave,
                Current production is both Renner Blue hammers and Renner 
shanks.  The price seems off the wall to me.  Maybe some old Samick 
clearance stock????
The older SG225 had Samick hammers and shanks, the old hammers were like 
swinging bricks.
They also had far too heavy a strike weight.
I have just recently done the same model with Renner shanks and Abel lite 
hammers, Very sweet tone. The lighter hammer also dramatically improved the 
touch.
