At a glance
The Tacks XF Ghost is noticeably lighter, has a much wider curve selection, and delivers a premium mid-kick feel, but it costs way more than the HZRDUS 5X5. The HZRDUS 5X5 is a low-kick one-piece construction at a fraction of the price, though it carries more weight and fewer blade options.
