Possibly, I would prefer to just sell them for now though. Here’s a pic of my personal blasted Northstar. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/5/d/d/5dd7693d72828a421ab5b5441e025cdb5958796a.jpeg) And Grooving, ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/8/6/78659b7b1027d20b45850031a602db19d5fe0f15.jpeg) ---

They grind about as well as One Drop’s Pyramytte (I think that’s how it’s spelled) finish. At it’s best, It would grind for about 4-5 seconds and mine isn’t completely full-blown, all out blasted. I could have blasted it longer. ---

My own preference is for a blast over a groove. The groove just looks kind of worn and tacky to me. ---

That makes a lot more sense… Sounds cool…I think if the grooves where deeper it would look cooler… ---
