Excellent Paddle
You get what you pay for. I bought these paddles close to 35 years ago and have used them on more than 60 lakes throughout BC. They still look like new although after all this time I recently touched up the blades with varnish because it had worn off the edges in a few places. I'd buy them again but at this rate they will last another few decades.
