More information:
Where did you buy them? Did you ask them? What are the dimensions of the blades? Are there any other markings on the blades besides the "TZ"? Hard to tell anything with that finish on them. Based on the "TZ" marking, they're probably TZ Heli fiberglass blades, not CF. The TZ is a Raptor clone made in Asia (i.e. China). |

Scrape off finish on one at the end of the root. If you see CF weave, then they're CF.
CF blades aren't normally completely painted (i.e. never?) because they want to show the CF for its marketing appeal. |
