Can anyone recommend a gap/sand wedge with a straight leading edge? Currently gaming the CG14 but I find alignment tough with it on full shots because of the relatively rounded leading edge (I'm not too concerned about the versatility of opening the face being lost). I understand Scratch 1018's fit the bill perfectly but unfortunately very hard to get in Europe. Any suggestions welcome!

Your best bet is to find a wedge that you really like, and take it to a good club repair shop & have them grind the leading edge flat. Not many companies offer a stock wedge with a sharp leading edge because for the average player, that is not a look that most higher-hdcp players want. Personally, I love a sharp, flat leading edge, but they are hard to find. A decent club repair shop could grind the leading edge in a few minutes. Note that it will affect playability quite a bit - the sharper leading edge will dig more & it will change the appearance if you decide to open the face. If they have to take a lot of metal off, it could lighten the swingweight some, so you might have to put some lead tape on the back if it feels too light to you after it's ground.
