Most of you know we make our own lax handles, mesh and string and offer them to you at wholesale. And you know, most of you, our stuff is well made. There are a few that still doubt the quality. It's understandable to doubt a $19.95 handle could be the same quality as a $100.00 handle. The full explanation follows. Very lengthy, but for anyone interested, here it is.
.............
We use an alloy with the designation 7075 which includes titanium as well as many other metals in a very exact formula originally developed by Japanese engineers in the 1930s for their aerospace program, and since has been used extensively in aerospace globally as well as many industries including the sporting goods industry. It's one of the most common, widely used and reliable quality metal alloys for its strength to weight ratio, corrosion resistance and other properties. The better quality lax shafts are made with 7075. People are generally confused on the issue of alloys.
Our Titanium 7 shaft is every bit as good as any of the afore mentioned products. We have had it tested and verified by Metallurgic Engineering Services, Inc, (metengr.com), one of the foremost metallurgic engineering companies in the country who work with major industrial brands such as Boeing, NASA and the US military. Official results are on our website.
We are able to offer our handles at a very low price because we make the handles ourselves in our own family factory, from raw materials. Prior to having our own brand we made handles for major lax brands.
The public would be shocked at the actual manufacturing cost of a lax handle. Our handles are of the same quality as every major brand on the market. There's not one 7075 alloy handle, including the STX Surgeon, Maverik SE7EN, Nike Vandal, Brine Swizzbeat, Under Armour Command - all excellent handles and made of the same materials as ours - that could not be sold for the same price as Savage X handles if they were sold factory direct, like we do. That's the truth of the matter, and you can etch that in stone.
Lax is not an inexpensive game. Money is better spent on safety and training.
