The Korena take

The 22-inch Pure Alloy Extra Hammered Crash-Ride is designed to cover two jobs without treating either as an afterthought. Its extra-thin profile is described as quick and sensitive, with hand hammering adding complexity to the overtones. Use it for articulate ride figures with a clear ping and warm sustain, then lay into it for a more projecting crash. The hammered surface also gives the cymbal its visually aged character.
