Nike Slingshot irons

Has anyone had any experience with the Nike Slingshot irons? I've never really thought of Nike as a real quality manufacturer of irons, but given the publicity Nike gets from Tiger I guess it's only natural that they would get into the irons market (and I'm sure they make a good driver too, although I've never tried one). The Nike Slingshot irons look decent though - although a bit on the expensive side. I'm perfectly happy for the moment with my Ping G2's but always open to try something new. The flex on the graphite on the Slingshot set is apparently Japanese, making it softer than traditional American graphite. I haven't used graphite in 2 years, since I switched back to steel in an attempt to straighten out my swing. I like graphite, but I think I'm just not good enough yet to go back to it.
