4mm steel. Easy to find.

Played an hour and a half Friday night with the new blades. I have to say that I'm surprisingly delighted. So much more bite. I didn't feel much discomfort with the height difference other than slightly sore ankles. I also played Saturday night and still the same results, found my happy feet again. Only thing that hurt is my inside boot collar digging into my leg during wide stance movements.

Still aiming at giving Grafs a shot and compare notes.

Bauer LS5 are worth the buy.

Completely agree.  I had a bit of discomfort in the first 10-15 min.  Pushes are effortless and the attack angle is drastically improved.
