Terminator Style Colorado Blades

[papajoe222]

I've been looking for spinner blades with beveled edges similar to the ones on Terminator spinnerbaits.  I'd like to find both Colorado and willow styles, but as of yet haven't found a supplier.  Any suggestions?

I believe you are talking about the Oklahoma blade?

Thanks for the responses guys, but both of these are the large blades used for musky spinners.  I'm looking o switch out blades for a little night fishing for bass.

Papa, You may have some difficulty locating the types of blades since they appear to be proprietary to Terminator. They describe the blades as being:

"The exclusive beveled edge blades also create more flash and a more realistic baitfish look in the water than standard blades.". So I guess its exclusive to them. Wouldn't you achieve the same result using deep cupped blades, which are available?

You can't get them, they are exclusive to Terminator, occasionally they will let size #5 and #6 Oklahoma style over runs be sold by Janns Netcraft. I contacted Rapala 2 years ago about this very thing and the blades are stamped special for them and them alone, in fact they own the die so if they ever stop making spinnerbaits, the die goes back to them. I don't like them because I think they actually cut down on flash so I prefer to have a fully smooth blade surface. The same deal with the Oklahoma, aka turtleback, aka mag willow, the difference is the bevel edge but it cuts down on flash. The gold blades though, that is something different but I'll tell you not to even worry about it, a few thousand tackle makers, including myself, have tried to get those blades for years and they aren't going to sell them now or ever.
