The "Fibers" section on the website has been updated. The information is more concise and complete. https://www.sdcttblades.com/materials/fibers

No problem, now the information is out there, in case anyone is interested. Regarding the maximum allowed reinforcement percentage, it only concerns the actual blade, not the handles. Like Magic_M stated above, there is a maximum of 15%, but each layers must be less than 0.35mm thick.

Not at all, glue alone doesn't have that kind of impact in a blade. The essence of the blade is still the same, it's a relatively thin 7 ply with a soft feeling, suitable for looping. What's different here is the feedback, by sharper feedback I mean a more direct feeling in the hand. There is...

Lately I've been very interested in different gluing methods. Whenever I want to test a fiber, I make a Vis composition, but if I want to test a gluing method I make a 7 ply. More layers means more glue, so its importance on the blade is higher. I was always very reluctant to use Epoxy in wood...

Honestly, I found it weird that you would say such a thing 😅

Carbon-fiber has a Young Modulus of 138 GPa. Ipê, which is the most stiff wood, has a Young Modulus of 22 GPa.

This asymmetric blade features Ukraine's colors and coat of arms and the handle, the shape is a mix between straight and conical. - Koto / AxC / Ayous / Ayous / AyC / Ayous / Limba - 86.5g - 5.6mm - 1380Hz - Balance: 2.5cm (Low)

Not necessarily and end, I won't stop trying to get it.

Hinoki, like all wood species, isn't all equal. Kiso Hinoki, which comes from the Kiso region in Japan, is the most sought after due to its softness and light weight. However, this wood is protected and very hard to get. The Hinoki I'm using here comes from the Kyushu region, it is slightly...

Probably just a nickname Sent from my MAR-LX1A using Tapatalk

A very unusual 7 ply with a composition based on the Pongfinity blade. - Poplar / Ayous / Ayous / Ayous / Ayous / Ayous / Poplar - 89.3g - 6.3mm - 1335Hz - Balance: 2.6cm (Low)

A couple of Rossi Emotions, one with the original composition and the other with ALC - Hinoki / Koto / ALC and Carbon / Ayous / ALC and CArbon / Koto / Hinoki - 5.8mm - 84.8 and 83.9g - 1335 and 1442Hz - Balance: 2.9 and 2.8cm

The majority of players prefers a lower balance, but unlike you Der, they also prefer a low weight, which really makes matters hard for me [emoji28]

- Limba / Spruce / Ayous / Spruce / Limba - 88.7g - 5.8mm - 1250Hz - Balance: 1.9cm (Very Low)

There are two big families of blades, all wood and composite blades. All wood blades can have a number of layers, how the number of layers and their distribution affects playing properties is a complex subject, but the most common numbers are 5 and 7 layers. Composite blades are all wood blades...

No need to apologize, we're just exchanging ideas here 🙂. Sometimes I also have a hard time writing or explaining something that is very clear in my mind. Personally I haven't tried the V5 but I get what you are saying. That is a good question, "gears" mostly come from this longitudinal and...
