Walnut is usually heavy and he managed to keep 84g is a surprise; maybe you used 0.6mm

Black Walnut is not that heavy, it weighs around 610 kg/m3, not much heavier than koto which weighs around 590 kg/m3.

donic crest off has this.
it has one layer of zlf next to a layer of carbon.
do you sell these blades?
can you share some prices?
Those are all nice ideas, they are going to the list. There a bunch of ideas that I haven't tried yet.
Yes, these blades are for sale. In fact, most of them are custom orders. I'll PM you with prices.

I'm using a cloth just like that, but only tried the 80 g/m2. As for carbon I'm using 160 g/m2, but I can use other density if required.

This blade served as an test subject for some experiments with the composite fiber and gluing method. The result is an improved feeling and more control.

What looks like Koto but isn't?
I also have been playing around with some ideas and materials for the handle. Very satisfied with the result.

the blade above is walnut-walnut-ayous-ayous-ayous-walnut-walnut 83g 6.4mm cpen that hipnotic made me, the blade hipnotic made is similar to donic ovtcharov senso v1, dr. neaubeaur matador and andro wanokiwami ren off. hipnotic send me my first custom hand made blade, the blade is beautiful everyting is smooth, plys are cut equally, the whitish handle is ohhh so beautiful it gives very nice contrast to the walnut head, it feels very sturdy and solid when holding the blade although i feel some weight on the handle than head, it plays just like othe walnut 7 ply i have played, medium throw on the net, medium trajectory, very hard feel and very contrlled for a 7 ply blade, the only differnce of hipnotic blade made me is little bit more faster but controllable. thank you again hipnotic.
Thank you for your feedback wappak. It was my first penhold blade so I'm glad it was a success.Quote:
