Tapered Blades

[DMBeer41 0]

I just bought a new shaft (Rbk 5K) that I got a good price on, and they said I need a tapered blade. Somehow I think it wasn't such a good deal anymore. What companies make tapered blades, and what's the difference between tapered and non tapered?

I would assume that RBK blades are tapered and will fit their stick. Anyone have a pattern chart for RBK blades?

RBK 5k shafts are standard shafts for blades. 6k is tapered.

Tapered blades are pretty much made by everyone you know except Montreal (as far as their USA rep knows). Easton, NBauer this year, CCM, RBK, Sher-Wood, TPS, Christian.

Cool! Guess the guy didn't know what he was talking about then. What's the difference between tapered and non tapered?

tapered are supposed to replicate a one piece

You can see the difference between tapered (left) and non tapered (right)

all tapered blades should fit. you might have to add a strip of tape to the hosel to be exact. (innovative blade was a little loose in my Mission shaft)

hockeymonkey has graphite pro-stock tapered blades for $20 or 2 for $30. it's pretty much a grab bag though, i ordered twice and they called me both times saying the pattern i ordered was out of stock so i had to choose another one.

in fact i think they have mission L-2 blades for $20 or $30 on clearance if you want to know exactly what you're getting.

They have a form to fillout on the warrior website where you can ask a question.

If it was a question regarding a stick, they're going to have to track down the former Inno employee who designed it 5 years ago. Patience.
