All yo-yos have passed the manufacturer's quality inspection. Quality standards vary by manufacturer. Basically, products that can be used normally are within product specifications.
Examples of possible initial defects
if the following symptoms occur immediately after opening, they may be initial defects:
(Bind models only) The bearing barely rotates even when flicked with a finger.
Even after dampening vibrations with a finger during play, the yo-yo vibrates so much that its shape appears distorted.
Parts that should be installed (bearings, pads) are not installed.
Examples that do not constitute initial defects
Package damage
Color differences from expectations
Bearing noise or bind model return issues that occur after even a few plays
Yo-yos that arrived properly assembled but cannot be reassembled after disassembly
Scratches on the inside of the bearing area, paint chips
Color variations on the yo-yo that are not noticeable from a distance
Paint chips that are not noticeable from a distance
Scratches on the yo-yo that are not noticeable from a distance and barely detectable by touch
Minor rust on bearing surfaces of models that come pre-strung in the package (minor external rust has almost no impact on performance)
Pickaxe is a middle sized version of Caribou Lodge's standard bearer, the Chief.
With the unmistakable double rim and high bump, it must be the Chief! But it seems that it's shrunk down to middle size... Since the dawning of full metal yo-yos when they were mostly on the small side, Caribou Lodge has been there dropping hot metal on all of us, and made a huge impact on the scene. Now that full metal yo-yos have "grown up" and gotten bigger, it feels like a sweet sense of nostalgia to pick up a middle sized yo-yo again. Ahhh!
With its unique design and double rim, the weight distribution are superbly balanced to get a smooth but powerful feeling, almost like a bimetal but still unique, and easy to control. The beautiful Pickaxe in the artwork chips away at our hearts with each throw. For its size, the Pickaxe is sure to become as popular as its big brother, the Chief.
Official Description The Pickaxe is our first new return top of 2018!
With a focus on fun over competition specs, the Pickaxe is an undersized version of our long-time standard bearer, the Chief. Featuring our iconic double-rim design and an incredibly comfortable profile, the Pickaxe is designed to be hurled around with reckless abandon while you work out ridiculous tricks that will score zero points.
Remember when you spent four days coming up with picture tricks that were all inside jokes about your friends? Remember when it was 4 am at Worlds and you accidentally hit that one triangle that you still don't understand how it works? Remember when there were 40 people in Paul Escolar's hotel room at Las Vegas Open and Bryan Figueroa did that thing and Steve called it The Doughy Frenchman and everyone giggled for like 20 minutes?
