As good as Bee Stingers

Years ago, Theory11 sold a deck of cards called Bee Stingers. I bought 10 decks just because I thought they looked nice, and I've always loved using regular casino grade Bee's for gamling routines. They are now sold out, and has been for years. Since then, I have carried many different decks, from regular Bicycles to Dan And Dave, and Theory11 premium decks. The cards I like the most, though, are the Bee Stingers. They handle very well, faro easily and looks simple and unsuspecting to a layman. I'm down to two decks that probably should have been tossed away months ago, but I like them so much, I just cannot do it. I have a single deck left, still concealed in the plastic wrapper, but that's part of my collection, so I'm not gonna use it. Of all the decks I have ever handled, the only ones that I thought came close to Bee Stingers are Theory11's Monarchs, which I own a couple of decks of, but they are too flashy for my style for anything other than playing with and being part of my collection.

So my question to you guys are, from your experience, where do I find a deck that handles as good as Bee Stingers, while being carried by the producers (for what I would wish was) indefinitely?

I would also like to hear any thoughts and experiences you've had with decks that you've come to love, but cannot get a hold on anymore.

Like Bee Stingers Aristocrat is a popular brand for casinos. I'd give another vote for aristocrats. Tally Ho have a great feel as well.
