Cheers

Sure, i have some really interesting stuff. But a lot of them have rubbers on them so i dunno if i can get a good photo. I have way less blades than you think because i often sell blades

But my favorites are:
Lemuria Long 5
Stuor Harimoto zlc
XVT ZL600
Sanwei 75 inner
Loki Arthur Pro Zlc

These all have the "snappy flex" feature i look for. With varying tradeoffs of flex and responsivity.

The blades i dislike:
Harimoto alc clone
Harimoto salc clone
Loki w81 inner

Cool, I also like blades with a little flex (easier to loop with a little dwell...)
Don't really need the pics..., Just wanted to get an idea of the sheer amount...

I know it is not so easy to arrange such a photo...

Can anyone tell from the photo whether this is a thin corte blade or a thick core HL5x type blade?

Anybody know this brand and is it good?

Is this a thin core long 5 type or a thick core long5x type?
I was really curious about this blade, so I got one to try. I am very happy to report that this blade is excellent. In fact, this is one of the best cheap limba-inner-alc blades that I have tried. I will definitely want to be holding on to this blade and not sell it.

If you are looking for a cheap Long 5 clone, this is probably one of your best options. The feeling and function is very close to long 5. Compared to long 5, the blade is slightly thicker. Maybe it is 6.1 or 6.2mm. It really feels similar to Long 5, but that extra thickness gives it a slightly springier, bouncier feeling. So the speed and rebound is really good. The flex is really good. Compared to the Loki W81, it has a much woodier/flexier feeling. In fact, this blade has that unique feeling of feeling springy but not dense.

When I loop, I feel there is a lot of spin and power on my fh to grab the ball.

When I punch with bh, I feel the blade has enough snappiness to really hurt the ball.

I guess this is what I really want: that grab and punch combo.

If I had to state a downside, the blade is the standard 158mm size. I wish it was 159 or 160. But it does so much else right, so I can't be upset.

BTW, the frequency came out to 1370, which makes sense. It is definitely flexy, but with some springiness and snappiness too.
