Hello- I have my wife in the STi-2 irons 6-GW in M890 shafts. I built a Maltby Glider series 56 degree. She had used the original sandslider in the set I built for her 23 years ago!! She still loves that club. I know the Glider is essentially the same design– BUT- mama don’t like the Glider. SO- I am hoping to build her a more traditional SW like she had in her CER irons. The M890 SW that matches fits that bill. You are out of the L flex– can I tip the LL enough to build her a SW with the M890?

She does still hit it a good distance. Her GW in STi-2 is a 100-110 yd club…

Thanks in advance..

would probably need to take off ~1″ additional, for a total of 4-1/4″. May not have enough tip left to get to the bottom of the hosel.
UST Dhi might be another option

With only 5″ of parallel tip section length, you would need to trim it an additional 1″ from the 3.25″ tip trim it call for in a wedge. As Rlafoone stated, that does not leave enough parallel tip length to get to the bottom of the hosel on the install. Need at least a 6″ parallel tip length on a shaft with similar trimming instructions to trim extra.
