Graf Blades

Hey i was wondering what is the difference between this type of blade on the G3 the triangle looking pattern

and this one on the 705

like what is the diference becuase i have the blades like the 705s just a solid blade and its kinda rusted and im contriplated on getting the other blade on the G3, different steel? makes it lighter? and is it worth the extra 40$

the steel i got had like half a inch still left

Perforated steel on the G3's.

so is that better? stay sharper longer? is it worth another 40$?

Im going to assume its not better because all of our newer G5s at work have solid steel now.

I've skated exclusively on perf. steel for the last 4 years so I wouldn't be able to give an unbiased opinion. Exclude the 6-7 times that I've been on Kor's, and its been perf.

They aren't going to make your skate hold an edge longer, the type of steel will determine that. I.e. carbon, stainless..

Steel, Tblades are awful especially if you can find a good sharpener near you.

IMO, both grafs steel sucks... compared to others. Rusts way to easy. It however is very hard steel and holds an edge quite well. Either breaks about the same. No advantage in one or the other, except prob longer life of the solid steel.
