Mission Fuel 100 replacement blades

Recommended Posts

Patrick - my thought would be a batch of blades that Mission have just sprayed up & put unkonown names on (as 2 are Slapshot characters) and thought ... "ship these to Europe" to get some $$$ return for them.

I am pretty sure the shop you are looking at may be the only people to have them.

I don't think Fuel 100 blades are a retail product, so that makes me think they are sprayed up for a "one off" and the shop you are looking at got them for a good rate or FOC on the back of a large Mission order.

I expect they may be curves of the standard mission range, with different names on them.

The one on the right does look like the Rafalski.

The blades in that image are not the same as the one's on the original link, they look like Koho Cross over blades in the image?

I suspect the guys at that shop may order them like pro stocksfrom Mission and have those names on the to sell in their shop.. and create loyalty to their shop maybe? As it's Europe I'm sure one of them will be a big mid/toe curve if it was seen in person, like the old Titan 23 curve! The fact they have images of hybrid blades, but the Fuel 100's seem to be comp's, then this would kinda support my logic above.

Then again .. I may be talkin sh*% as I often find myself doing.

The blades are a combination of Fuel / V-Hex / L-2 blades that were left over when we closed our vendors factory in Mexico. I think there was a mix of all the old and current Mission patterns.
