Stupid Oar question

I broke a blade and was wondering how the heck you get the blade off my Hyde Magnum Oars.
Thanks in advance

Should be a button on the that pokes through the female section of the shaft, press, twist and slide out.(Assuming these are Cataract oars)

Carlisle's should be the same. Don't know about Sawyer's.

sawyer's should be a large screw that looks similar to the button on other oars. get a really big screw driver (or other large, flat bladed implement) and screw it IN (make sure you screw in and not out... i made that mistake once) until it clears the hole on the shaft. then just slide the blade out.

very similar concept to the carlisle's and such... just a screw rather than a button.

Thanks, I fiqured it out.. I had electrical tape on it, so I didn't see the button, and it was a huge button..
