Which blades to get? Titleist or Mizuno?

It is.  It is actually a form of welding called Friction Welding.  Previously being a welder, and still working in the industry, finally a topic I know at least a bit about, ha ha.

Borrowed from Wikipedia:

" Friction welding ( FW ) is a class of solid-state welding processes that generates heat through mechanical friction between a moving workpiece and a stationary component, with the addition of a lateral force called "upset" to plastically displace and fuse the materials. Technically, because no melt occurs, friction welding is not actually a welding process in the traditional sense, but a forging technique. However, due to the similarities between these techniques and traditional welding, the term has become common. Friction welding is used with metals and thermoplastics in a wide variety of aviation and automotive applications."

I have Mizuno Mp32 irons and Taylormade MB blades 2005ish model. The taylormade irons are gorgeous and have a razor thin top line at address, which I love. but the 3 iron looks teensy weensy at address and off centre hits lose a lot of distance. The Mizunos cut like butter from 3 to P.

Love them both.

Clevelands...meh. They're just not sexy.

the Nike blades are small but surprisingly forgiving and long.
