I didn't have a good experience with this blade, mine feels bouncy on soft shot but hollow when I apply more force, it seems the core layer was faulty. The only bright side I can think of is decent blocking/counter close to the table due to the top ply being ash wood (which is bouncier than limba). In general, I think Clipper Wood and Yinhe D437s are better choices

+ For yinhe d437. That's a fine blade nice feeling. Ask for weight though because they can be quite heavy
