1st Gen is the way to go with the Ti stock. They come up every now and again. I just sold a LA and a SA. Replaced them with McEdges.
I have another that's been painted with a lot of texture. It will be for sale as soon as the Edge I ordered a few weeks ago comes in. May be 6 or 7 months of waiting.
PM me if you're interested in that one. It's a good one.
I'd just find a lightweight contour and forget about the fluting. Extra cost and the fluting may limit you in finish length. But a good blank will cost you $300 to $350.
