I've played several blades in the last 5 years, but the most comments were on my Yururi blades in the raw black finish. They are really eye-catching.

ive got a few sets of blades..

epon af-tour....
kyoei v muscle.....
sakamoto......
miura 1957......
yururi flatback.........

i like them all for differnt things and conditions.
the sakaomoto ,miura and yurri i like on hard pan, tight lied grass.bec of the small , thin soles
the kyoies on everything. bec, they are in between small and big and they are the most solid of all.
the epons on sponge,or wet grass. are simply fantastic, they feel the (best )softest by a long way.
i went back to playing blades bec, i wanted that feeling of that perfect hit off the middle , just nothing else feels like it .
ive hit cavities again recently , but they just dont feel as good., for me its gotta be blades.
if u add the epon 302 and miura cb1006 in there as well, oh boy, i thtink my iron ho'ing days are over.

I'm not stuck on having to have a "blade" for my next set of irons, but I put enough time in to justify playing them. I even play an old persimmon and sam snead 2 iron for fun sometimes... now if you want to talk about unforgiving there you go.

Whether it is a "BLADE" blade, or just a blade-like players cavity is not a huge deal to me, I just want the best looking iron from address and the best feeling, consistent shaft. The part of the game I enjoy the most is creative part; playing difficult iron shots, getting creative with the ball and hitting the shots that make you go WHAT is what I love about golf probably the most. Whether my handicap suffers a few strokes in the meantime while I become better, I don't really care all that much.
What an excellent post. Comes as no surprise that I totally agree with you. !!
