I'm real curious to know how you cut yourself with a Special 20 --
Please explain.

   Best Regards,

I really like the Crossover, too.

It feels like middle ground between a stock Marine Band and a custom, to
me.  I enjoy playing the three that I own.   I've gotten cut by Special
20's plenty of times.  I have yet to sustain a Crossover-related injury.
