I wonder what the definition of "same" is?

 

I wondered the same thing.  Then in February I called and talked to Bob at RodGeeks for nearly an hour about their blanks and the similarity to ST. Croix.  What I brought away from that conversation was this...the engineering is nearly the same but not identical.  Their tapers and transitions are slightly different because they think they have come up with a better design.  I happen to agree with it.

 

I have built less than 100 rods so I'm no expert, but for my personal builds I use Rod Geeks 75% of the time.  I like certain blanks from MHX, Batson, and Castaway, but with the option of custom paint on a "nearly" identical rod for less money,  it's hard to pass on the C4 blanks.

not the same as St. Croix SCIV blanks but made from similar materials and was designed by St. Croix , so in effect it is not a rebranded SCIV blank ...
