Excellent blade, which I still use. Difficulty comes when trying to replace the same one. Anyone any thoughts on similar blades?

Simply my favorite blade ever. It’s a shame Andro stopped making them.

Lightweight enough but not fragile, this blade offers excellent control despite speed on attacking strokes. The medium-soft feeling makes this blade excellent for topspin attackers using soft or medium-soft rubber.
