I don't have a Lyman, but I have a madagascar ebony. I don't care for the sound at all. Is Lyman different than others?

You bet they are...Lyman strikers are well balance in my hand. I'm sure you know that the weight, length, tip etc has a lot to do with sound. The good striker makers know this and uses this to the wood and strikers advantage. Bill, in my opinion, is an expert at this!
