duch 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2007 I don't see anything that weird about that. He tries it out in practice and if he likes it he'll use it in a game situation. Now,butt ending might be a problem though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ashtonhutch05 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2007 i had never seen a blade done like that before. i believe it was spezza that had that other very ugly opps thats toe came almost to a point? i dont suppose it matters, appereantly it works for him.EDIT: OPS* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JR Boucicaut 3804 Report post Posted June 24, 2007 I don't understand what you are "wowing" about. The blade shape? Or the shaved handle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ashtonhutch05 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2007 it might just be me, but it looks like he cut the composite blade at the heel, and put a wood blade there. i might just be seeing it wrong though, but it's something ive never seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mack 44 Report post Posted June 24, 2007 No, CCM/RBK sticks have models that are made that way. I think the site is proreturnhockey.com, they have some for sale there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
koivulchuk 1 Report post Posted June 24, 2007 I thought it was a wood blade just painted to the heel...but anyways, mack is right...proreturnhockey has the spezza pro stocks with woodie blades at a rape-worthy price of 149 or something like that... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since the Vector is made the same way you'd make a wood stick, the blade can be substituted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TBLfan 25 Report post Posted June 24, 2007 I hate to be a stickler but can we please change the topic title to something relevant to the topic?I've seen a couple made for Spezza composite blades and they are shaped worse. I posted a pic in the show it off thread, I believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's very common.I believe Doug Weight does something similar...i dont believe that's correct.Aaron Ward shaves down his but end to the point where it's almost a spear. i believe he said he does it as a result of some hand surgeries, and how his hand is much more comfortable being closed on the narrow end.
