Nittaku Violoncello

It is a very good table tennis blade. Worth its price. It is great for chopping with long pips, but it also performs excellently in attack. An ideal blade for the modern defender. It offers more control than the JSH, which is simply too fast. Interestingly, Nittaku also released this blade—an older version—under the name “Vioncello”.

It’s a very nice blade. I would say it’s faster than most defensive blades and has a good catapult.
It’s a fantastic blade to loop the ball with and generates a lot of spin.
If you play with OX rubber on the backhand, you’ll have to adjust your stroke because the ball goes a little higher.

Great product. Quick delivery.

I recently played against a friend who owns this blade, and he allowed me to use it for a few games. I was thoroughly impressed with its consistency and accuracy, which were both top-notch.

This blade excels as a defensive weapon, whether it’s used close, mid, or long distance. During the time I borrowed it, I focused on playing purely defensively, so I didn’t experiment with counter-looping or topspin. However, I could sense its potential for these techniques, which my friend occasionally uses.

Regarding its pricing, I’m not sure, but based on the prices of other Nittaku blades, I would estimate it to be over $100. It has a great feel, a comfortable handle, and excellent weight distribution. If I had played Modern Defensive back in the day, this is the blade I would have wished for.
