Overview
The Alkali Cele III ABS Standard Hockey Blade provides players with a puck feel and performance of wood characteristics but has exceptional durability thanks to the fiberglass ABS reinforcement throughout the blade. The ABS reinforcement is exactly what you need in order to play on rough outdoor surfaces like asphalt or concrete without the blade wearing down too quickly.

Great blade, not for outdoorsGreat blade, I use the 33 and it has just a bit more toe hook than the P29 it's modeled after.I use it for indoor and dry land pick handling and it works great. I don't think this blade would last more than a few games on an outdoor rink. However, you should probably be using a blade saver if you care that much. The price is good too.
Just doesn't lastThe blade took a little getting used to (I got the A20 curve, similar to the P88) as the blade wasn't quite the same as my other P88 stick. The installation was pretty easy and I never had an issue with it coming loose once I installed it. The issue I had was after 2 weeks of play (~2 skates a week), the laminate layer on the blade started to separate. I prolonged the life of the blade by re-taping the stick and adding a little bit of filler to seal the layers but eventually (another 2 weeks), the blade got really bendy near the toe. All in all, the blade was solid while it was new and was easy to install. The only downside is now I am having to buy a new blade after only a little over a month of use.
