What ever blade you go for you would want to make sure it fits your shaft....assuming that is what you intend doing with it.
Ke Nalu are sold as components.....seperate blade, shaft or handle.....or complete paddles.
But unless you have a Ke Nalu shaft it is unlikely to fit.

Anyone know where I can get one, second hand or new?

Thanks Deano, was just going to see if it was possible, very aware of the different shapes & diameters. It's for an old starboard paddle that I snapped the blade. I was thinking maybe another starby, qb or even a fanatic might work. Has any done this before?

some are shafts are roughly the same. i've fitted different brand handles. you probably need to take your paddle and a tape to your nearest friendly sup shop and have a fiddle

i've got a ke nalu, thin shafts, their blades are it's unlikely to fit any thing else, however you can use off cuts from other shafts to sleeve inside or outside to get the fit. sup shops will have plenty of off cuts.

use your imagination and it's possible.

Pretty sure you can now buy the Starboard components individually. So go have a chat with your local Starboard dealer and they should be able to get their hands on one for you.
