Sorry I asked.
It was a genuine question, and I missed the previous thread on this.
Personally, if Tony's (trusted) friend has seen the Viscaria markings on FZD's blade, and considering his reputation so far on the various TT forums (impeccable), I believe what Tony says.
No worries.
Maybe I was a bit harsh earlier on (was on my way out and had no time to type)
Basically there are some "known" secrets, but it can not be too obvious - for the sake of contractual and legal matters.
ie - do you think FZD will advertise that he is not using Stiga blade?
Do you think all these can lead to consumer protection act law against Stiga for marketing fraud?
But you just get some people who want clear evidance - for what, i'm not sure, as it doesn't matter to me what FZD uses, I dont care, but the only thing I care is with the lying part. Why lie? easy - for the sake of making more money.
I really don't understand why Stiga doesn't make a Viscaria clone, and the problem is sorted.
Btw, this handle trick has been around for a long time already.
As I said above - blade can be debatable, but clearly rubbers can be easily seen as non stiga branded.
Any ways, enough of me against Stiga in this thread. They are a great brand with great products. I just don't understand why the stars don't use Stiga equipment or why they choose to mislead people in thinking they do.
