Hi Guys

I Currently use a matsushita pro but they have been discontinued by butterfly and i will need to change my blade soon.

I have tried the donic desto but i dont like it, it is a bit too unstable for my game- im not comfortable with it and it doesnt seem to generate enough spin with my technique so have gone back to the MSP.

I don't have much money (lol) so could any suggestion be...ummm...at a decent price?

Ideally I'd like a blade similar to the MSP so yeh...any advice?

Cheers Guys

SC :p

This may sound weird, but have you ever tried a Nittaku Violin?

I think it would boost your offensive game, losing some control at first, but the blade really has great feel and is not as flexy as the Nittaku Acoustic.
Once you get to know it, I am sure it will be a great weapon for you.

Matsushita Pro is a defensive blade with Arylate and Carbon. That is a great blade. Hard to replace for what you do. Super Chopper, you are a defensive play right? And you want a blade with similar feel, control and spin, right? That is a tough combination when you add the fact that you want the blade to be no too expensive. I don't really know what to tell you except, you could try and find a used Matsushita somewhere like ebay. Good luck.

Carl you are talking about the Matsushita Pro Special, the Matsushita Pro is wood only.

Oh. Thanks. Did not realize or bother to look up. I hit with one of those Matsushita blades with the Arylate and Carbon several years ago and thought it was pretty amazing. So I did not bother to check if Super Chopper meant the same one or a different one.

Hopefully one of the defensive specialists on here will be able to really help. :)

$10 Galaxy 896 All+/OFF- blade is worth 10 times its weight for either and Offensive game, a control game, or an allround game. I once had LP 1.3 sponge on BH using this blade. it wont feel the same as your matsu pro, but it wont cost you a lot and you can attack and control with it.

I do not think that anybody knows your blade and can recommend something simillar. So it would be much better if you write what kind of player you are. I understand from you equipment that you are or want to be modern defensive player like JooSeHyuk. My friend is using maze passion off- in that kind of game, you can also think about schlager precision, they are both quite hard blades suitable for def and also off FH play. The advantage is they are not very expensive like nittaku violin, which I think will not be suitable for chop rubber.
