I literally have seen a difference in quality. I had one of those "cheaper" repro ones and it bent, and I just about slipped off and scratched the grips(but didn't), I tossed it in the trash and now try to buy just original ones.

I have seen thicker ones that look original, and yet collectors have told me they are repros, but if you look in Jan Still's books, some look as thick as "repros".
