At a glance
The Tacks XF 70 is way more affordable and available in USD pricing, but the HSM Pro Blackout Blue Lite is noticeably lighter by over 100 grams and offers a much wider curve selection. If weight and blade variety matter to you, the HSM is the clear step up, but you will pay more for it.
