I found it on aliexpress (“Chinese PingPong” store) and i thought about giving it as a gift to a friend... The problem is i found it strange because of the back, i didn't know the 988 had a version with double side. Does it exist? Does anyone who has/had it know? I say this because the one i saw was “normal” jpen, there was no double side...

(I haven't bought it yet, these are just images of someone's reviews)

988 is 2 sided
989 is 2 sided and designed for twiddling (jpn grip on both side)

had to go back to a 2012 catalog to check

note, I see that at one stage they had straight cut (at the back) and at one stage they was also round bend.
the photo in OP is straight cut.
But even the round bend was designed for a rubber (no idea how you going to glue/cut)

Yinhe's had been faking blades of other brand. They were good, some of them even better than the original and they are cheap as well. I can't imagine anyone faked another fake blade which already damn cheap.
