Anyone got these Nitto 018 bullhorns? They're the ones with zero drop. Just wondering if they're worth buying rather than chopping my own. Comfy?

Kinda of a pain to find a pair of bars with no grooves to chop these days but even buying some plain Nitto 115's (no groove) and flipping and chopping might work fine.
I tend to like curvy bullhorn bars without too much extension. I tried some Syntace 38mm with 0 drop and they had a little too much flat so I returned them. My hands like to grip the curves. Might even spring for the nice grey anodized finished with these although they might get covered with tape.
