    Just wondering if this is the latest batch of Thruster FEs or a fake?

    The shaft is distinctly separate from the head and the handle. You can see the joint line. The Victor symbol on the cone is not gold, and the handle pommel/cap is clear. unnamed-4.jpg unnamed-5.jpg unnamed-6.jpg

    Someone can chime in on the lines on the shaft, but as for the cap + cone, they looked like this ever since they changed to the free core tech (plastic handle + cone with vibration dampening).

    Mine looks the same. The seam lines are just from the decals, not a multi piece shaft.

    That’s what the shop told me. I’ve excepted it as is. The Thruster F Claw has the same thick decals. It’s flat white so not as easy to see, but you can feel it. Victor rackets are definitely not as well finished as Yonex.

    I just received my TK-F directly from Victor retail in the BC it has the exactly same lines in shaft so they are authentic.
