straight blade? boxblade?
Straight blade can articulate and move spoils to one side,,, BUT,, they get the "hops" and leave the surface choppy.
Box blades can move a lot of spoils, thus filling in holes better for a longer pull. the side panels resist the chop or bouncing better. But can not articulate or move spoils to side or do ditching.
I prefer a box blade as I mostly am working my roadways, and driveways on the ranch.

This over priced device is about the best thing I have ever used as it leaves all the ranch roads smooth as glass. Every couple of Years I have to run all the roads, as the hunters chew up everything on their buggies, in the dear seasons.
