Great read.
I was talking to Tony Stezko Sr one year and He told Me that He produced the needle with flat sides More like a curve up front in the 70s and that those Guys made the plastic ones from that.
I have one Of his needles from the 70s He gave Me its in black back scale sides and a deep yellow.
Interseting.
The super strike is a pissa needle and I love the transparent green needle plus the pink ones But the green put out Big time and I lost it.
I guess they be making them transparent ones again But the green is differnet But I seen a Brown one and Must get to a shop that sells that one........................................

I like and use alot of the SS dark green back ( eel ) and the flouresant green . I have had lots of success with these needles right behind the habs needles in olive and yellow .
