Just happened to be in China again for another launching of Stiga blade (again), this time the Nostalgic series.

I was going to pass on the series until I happened to come across an ad for the Nostalgic VII which gives the asymmetrical composition of wenge-spruce-ayous-ayous-ayous-ayous-wenge.

Here’s the culprit ad: translation in red

Without further checking I rushed to order and have it shipped express before I leave China and miss the blades. I decided to get the three only without the two Azalea blades. Afterward I decided that most likely its a typo since the photos of the blade in question showing symmetrical composition. Doh!

Anyway, the blades arrived today and I gave them a quickie shoot with my phone while I still have some daylight left.

Most of them posted as is without color editing to preserve their real look somewhat. Due to bad lighting and hand shakes some I added a bit brightening and sharpening (some wings photos) to make it easier for inspection.

Here they are:

The Trio Nostalgic Series

For consideration, I only posted a couple of the photo here. The rest are in the next posts below.

Wow... I just noticed that another coincidence happened. Some of you know that I post blades photo every Sunday on my instagram. This time, I was planning my instagram post for the whole month while I’m in China. At the last minutes (hours before my flight) I decided to shoot several Yinhe blades.

Just happened that tonight’s post was planned to be Yinhe’s Wenge blade I got years ago. One out of four Yinhe wenge’s series, if I’m not mistaken. Didn’t even occur to me until it was time to post it on instagram a few minutes ago. Ha!

Well, since I’m still in China, I don’t have the Yinhe’s blade on me for direct physical comparison.

Anyway, here’s the blade...

Not sure why.

I tried using two different browsers and also without logging in the forum and they showed up.

I really like the look and aesthetic, I would consider getting the 7-ply one to see how it plays.

Seems to be OK now. Earlier, I tried refreshing and they wouldn't show up.

Looks like more variations on Stiga's normal range of blades - the Allround, the VII (Clipper), etc. What makes them "nostalgic"?
