Cleveland CBX 2 wedge
Cleveland's 2019 cavity-back wedge, which it called off-the-charts forgiving: a hollow chamber in the heel and weight in the toe, from 46° to 60° with the sole chosen for each loft, left- or right-handed in every loft. Cleveland no longer sells the CBX 2 new; the CBX ZipCore and CBX 4 ZipCore followed it, and the CBZ Tour Satin (traditional grooves) is the newest model in its line.

What changed in the CBZ Tour Satin (traditional grooves)
Both are Cleveland's cavity-back wedges with the sole chosen for each loft: V-shaped up to 52°, S-shaped at 54° and 56°, C-shaped at 58° and 60°. The CBX 2 runs from 46° to 60° and was left-handed in every loft; the CBZ adds a 44° and is left-handed from 50°. The CBZ, two generations on, has more bounce in every loft (12° against 9° at 46° and 48°, 12° against 11° at 50° and 52°, 14° against 12° at 54° and 56°, 12° against 10° at 58° and 60°) and is made in Cleveland's Z-Alloy steel. The CBX 2 came with True Temper Dynamic Gold 115 Wedge steel or Rotex Precision graphite; the CBZ comes with KBS HI-REV 2.0 115 or HI-REV G 80.
Cleveland no longer sells the CBX 2, so a used one is the way to buy it, for a fraction of the price of a new CBZ. Choose it for Cleveland's cavity-back wedge for the least money, a left-handed 46° or 48°, or less bounce on firm turf; choose the CBZ for a new wedge, more bounce in soft sand, or the Full-Face grooves.
