I bought that blade one year ago and paid more for it It definitely is a premium blade with a great feel and enough power. The flared handle is a strong one. Because it is from the A-series it also is a rather rare blade. This is an offensive evolution one. Imo it is a b*s. The good offensive ones have a different looking koto outer. And spruce second ply. No red plying. Like the one wlq used in manchester. Those are the deal. This is an A b*s.

The later Offensive Evolution looks identical with harder/ less quality veneer. And the "good" Offensive with outer dyed Koto/Limba and Spruce as 2nd. veneer is the third version which is less sough after than the first and second version.

The good one (meant good performance) is the one i told in my post. Wlq manchester. I have 2 master. These are the best off ones.
Older first versions does not mean anything about better in stiga blades.
There are very old stiga blades that do not have any value as a good performance/feeling blade.
Quite more modern off classic than those from 1975 are better.
That one though older is same building and plying as off evolution and is b*sht.
I had several evolution (better looking that the one here) and older versions.
If one wants to collect old stiga blades is ok. But to play with that blade it is not the deal.
Try to find the 1997s master (this master handle is the best stiga master handle ever. Different from modern ones)) off koto which are not easy to find.

This chap is suffering from blade envy. OP wants to sell his old stiga and you come up with yours is better!!! Who asked you?
If you have nothing to do, why don't you start a topic on the best stiga's ever

+1 for Magic_M and again this's Dean's for Sale section. " Who ask you?"  Asking yourself first.

I see your beautiful Hans Alsér Offensive Wood has the number 2 die bossed into the thumb groove on one side - any idea what number means? I have a couple of old Offensive Woods myself with a number debossed like that, and I'm curious as to what it represents.

I really don't know, could be some type of factory stamp, I think you need to ask Manfred, he is more knowledgeable on such things

I have a Kjell Johansson Allround Wood which has a number 2 stamp on top of the handle too.

I get in this thread because i felt someone is trying to sell a b*sht (imo) as a marvelous old stiga blade. Besides something smells fishy...

Dean do not be dramatic.
As I said it is just my opinion that blade is a b*sht.
To caidtt that blade is fabulous and i envy you.
Talk to caidtt to buy it. Go on caidtt. It is a steal.
