The distal end of the transition segment (11) is bonded to the proximal end of the soft tip (5) segment. The transition segment (11) is comprised of materials having substantially higher tensile strength than the soft tip (5) segment. The distal end of the shaft (3) is bonded to the proximal end of the transition segment (11). The distal end of the shaft (3) has at least two ungular sections (2, 4) removed.
