Since I'm the only one that will be comparing all the blades side by side, stiffness and flex posted by others will be without a point of reference and therefore arbitrary. So maybe others can pitch in with the length, width, and weight, as well as the occasional question or clarification on actual fin performance.
Don, you're right about durability. But I can't comment on this aspect of a blade by just handling it, more so because it doesn't belong to me and I'm reluctant to put as much stress on it as I do with my blades.

I think having fish strung out at intervals along the float line creates more drag than if they're all in one place at the back of the float, especially on descents and ascents. Unless they all slide down the line and end up at the back. I'm still more comfortable with the idea that the fish are at a fixed location.

If you're shore diving the ideal setup is a board or what you guys call a plat, keeps the fish away from the sharks. I've done plenty of diving with just a float and the fish attached to a stringer at the back of the float. Done this way if a shark is attracted to your catch at least it's away from you and gear won't be lost when the shark bites through the fish and stringer.

I have the opportunity to inspect different fins, as customers looking to get Pursuit fins often bring along their other fins. I'm starting this thread to serve as a point of reference for comparing fins along the characteristics of stiffness, length, weight, and flex points. At this time those are the important blade characteristics that I'm aware of.

Welcome Karl.

Careful, a shark might bite that off <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x">

Are you afraid to go by yourself?

Whoa gills, you have to shrink your pics before you upload them. Please see this thread http://spearfishing.world/foru…ure-posting-tutorial.html and notice the ideal pic sizes for posting. Your blank is looking nice.

I was wondering what's under the shrink wrap, if it was braided somehow. Here's what it looks like.

Wow that's a great deal provided the yak is not in two pieces

Looks nice. This is for hunting big pelagics, it's overkill for diving the reefs. James says it's neutral, with those eyes and quick links does it actually float?

The pole from Home depot doesn't fit?
