Anyone still make ABS replacement blades?

I'm trying to buy some new ABS replacement stick blades and it seems that no one is making them anymore.

I mostly play outside and the ABS blades last a long time and they're a LOT cheaper ($12 or less) than the composite blades ($30+).

Hockey Giant (the store and online) has been out of them for a long time, and after a search online, it seems everyone is sold out of ABS or clearancing them. (??)

Am I stuck buying more expensive composites from now on?

Who has the best prices on composite replacement blades?

I did find this link but it's a Koho blade.

Everything else I found was for an ABS Jr. Blade. I don't know what brand
of blade you use, but you might want to call Easton sports in Van Nuys.
They may have some there and you never know...they may sell them at
whole sale. Their number is (818) 782-6445.

I got a Louisville Response ABS a couple of weeks ago... Hopefully you play left handed.... Here you go

Just found these right now... Its actually a pretty good buy if you order 3 of them... I always kinda liked the koho blades.

Ok... Im sorry that i didn't bother to check out that they are sold out of the 3 pack of Koho 2260c Crossover... But they do have the Koho Ultimate in stock...

Thx PTDP & MM.

I went to Hockey Dogs and ordered a Koho and a RBK. It's odd ordering a blade w/o seeing the exact curve in front of you, so hopefully I'll like them.

HD sent me an immediate e-mail saying that sticks are an additional $10 oversize charge, so if they try to add an additional $10 for shipping stick BLADES, I'll cancel the entire order.

During lunch I went to Pasadena Play It Again Sports, and how is that place even in business? They have basically nothing. The entire store is quite empty, and they have almost zero hockey gear. I did meet a guy who may come out for Rose Bowl hockey though.

You might be right about that first one. A while ago I bought a CCM blade with ABS, and I think only paid $17.95 for it. I thought that v2.0 might have been the one. Looks like InlineWarehouse might not carry it anymore. Damn.

I think the v20 and v40 had ABS in the middle, with a thin layer of Texalium (or whatever?) stuff on the outside. The 2.0 and 4.0's are the new year's models and are basically the same, except a thin layer of carbon (I think?) instead of the Texalium. I've been using a 4.0 on asphalt, and it seems to do the trick.
