Nittaku Septear Feel

Everyone is always buying Ma Long 5 Viscaria and other similar blades. However, this blade is truly exceptional. I have used a variety of inexpensive Chinese blades like Yinhe, as well as Xiom and Butterfly Zhang Jike ALC. Yet, none compare to this one.

While other blades may be faster, what is the point of speed if you keep hitting the ball out? This blade offers approximately 90% of the offensive speed of other blades, but with the most incredible feel. The spin is extraordinary. I originally purchased it because it was on sale, and it has now become my primary blade. I pair it with Hurricane 3 Neo and Rakza 7.

This is a good blade for players who want to generate spin and control, yet still maintain good speed.

Review

Firstly, this is the most spinniest blade in the table tennis market. Secondly, this blade has great feeling. Thirdly, you can play from every area. This blade has high throw and easy spin. Buy this blade and feel the difference between your level before and after using it.

For me, Nittaku has probably the worst advertisement in Table Tennis but you can find “one of kind” equipment when you have the money. People want to buy 10 cheap blades, but here we have something legendary without any biased reviews. So Nittaku, pay me for this review or I will go to court.

This blade is probably the most unique in every category. Easy spin in every shot, slow loop is like dreaming between clouds, slow blocking is good because this FE (Force Engineered) material absorbs a lot of rotation and adds rotation in your swing, high tossed serves are lit, creating arc is easier than a piece of cake, and short game, maybe bouncy, but you can add more spin in chopping.

Probably guys with big hands won’t be satisfied, like always, but every competition player will have something special with this blade except heavy weight “hammer”. Top blockers will be not satisfied with throw.

In my eyes, elevate innovation over ignorance buying overpriced blades from different brands. This is a great chance to put money for something over normal copying composition from every brand. Every club has Viscaria or copy of Koto/Alc, but here it’s innovation 7 plies +2 FE Carbon. Here, we got 5.7 mm of pure Hinoki, so we know we got excellent quality plies like Jonyer. Next, we got 2 plies wave of artificial material, we have more fullness in touch, more dwell. When we put a lot of power in stroke, this “pause” effect gives us incredible tension, but everything has cons, this won’t be good for blockers.

Hinoblaze? Stiff but feeling addiction. Septear Lead? Lack of feeling but quality is top. Septear OG? Thick, but still a great blade. This is the Butterfly Jonyer for our generation even composition is not even close, but balls are different.

This blade is something incredible. I have used many blades, both cheap and expensive, and the control this blade provides is amazing. The speed is moderate, and the spin is out of this world.

With good technique, you can use this blade without any problems. I am currently using it with a Forehand Battle 2 Provincial 39 degrees and a Backhand Gold Arc 9 of 38 degrees.

Note: Don’t hit it against the table.

Frankly, this is the best paddle I’ve ever had (and I’ve tried almost everything). For me, the best feeling is that it seems like an extension of my arm.

It gives me much more confidence in placing the ball where I want it. And because I have more contact time with the ball, the resulting spin is much greater than with any other paddle I’ve tried. It’s a great discovery that I didn’t expect at all. 😉

The blade is made with excellent craftsmanship and wood. I am trying to understand if it pairs well with my game (a little bit stiff compared to my previous blade, the Donic Waldner Carbon Senso).

Forehand G1, Backhand C1, both with special thickness. The feeling is clear, good control, fast speed for mid to close-table play. Basically, whenever you touch the ball, you can send it back over the net. Suitable for female players to play with a variety of speeds or to use for fishing around. Good for defensive angles and counterattacks.

This blade provides exceptional feel and control due to the hinoki wood layers. However, it can crack easier than another blade due to the nature of hinoki wood. Nonetheless, I recommend this blade because it helps your skills improve so you don’t chop the blade onto the surface of the table. Good luck ping-ponging. :-).
