I confirmed this by comparing one of the other kinds of chisels versus one of the newer double ligero maduro chisel.

I don't have the picture of the side by side but just for fun guys, compare one of the older chisels to one of the newer style. They have shrunk at least 5 rg and a quarter of an inch.

I am SO pissed. :-)

Well, it's better to be pissed off than to be pissed on.:-)

Are you sure you weren't looking at a chiselito?

I don't think its cool that they not give us a heads up ahead of time.

I just rechecked the ones I have in my humidor and they are two different sizes. However I don't see this as a problem. Love them too much.

Smaller ring guage = better (usually but not always) IMO
