Weight and balance are nice. It’s quite light, as advertised. I would rate speed and control closer to '9'. It does everything it should, however, it isn’t the most flexible blade for dwell time while looping. As others have said, hitting and blocking are ideal with this. In short, it’s great if you like hard and stiff carbon blades.

Great Chinese penhold blade, perfect for hitting and blocking with excellent control. Speedwise, it’s almost offensive+. The blade is beautifully made and finished.

#3 — May 2012

Provides good control for drives, spins, and block shots. It is a well-balanced penholder blade that is very ideal for all offensive Chinese penholder-style players.
