I agree on the beauty and quality of the Hussey Imperials, but disagree on the rib smile To me it adds a hard line when compared to the svelte game rib. I want a softer feeling in my left hand as I careen around the mountains in search of grouse. I have a Luccini with a level file cut rib and am about to dispose of it due to my dislike of the rib. On the clays range or driven peg, my objections to the level rib dwindle to aesthetics.
