Avalox BT550

[mahomedy13]

I can get this blade for a very good price,and according to most people,it is superb quality.

what blades can it be compared with?

I want to know which rubbers suit it best(euro/chinese),and

the coating on the blade,it is well coated with lacquer/varnish?

BT555/P500, thats a given
Seriously though, AVX blades are really kind of special. You dont see a lot of all-woods this stiff and vibrationless, yet is still very decent at looping, and this is coming from me using BT777 for half a year.
Also I highly suggest you varnish it. The surface veneer drops threads like Stiga's....
