Who says carbon blades need to be fast? - Willow / Ayous / soft-carbon / Ayous x3 / soft-carbon / Ayous / Willow - 94.5g - 5.6mm - 970Hz - Balance: 1.8cm (Very low)

Yes.

Cork has virtually no stiffness of its own, it bends very easily in every direction, so it doesn't add stiffness to the blade, only indirectly by increasing the distance between the other plies. Also, because it has a lot of voids, there is some energy dissipation, and it serves as a dampening...

A pair of two very different blades: Left - Anigre / A-C / Ayous / Kiri / Ayous / A-C / Anigre - 80.8g - 5.65mm - 1550Hz - Balance: 2.3cm (Low) Right: - Limba / Spruce / T-C90 / Ayous / Cork / G-F / Ayous - 89.5g - 6.1mm - 1150Hz - Balance: 2.3cm (Low)

Another 5 ply with a classic composition. Normally these types of blades use Spruce on the medial layer, but I decided to use Cypress to give it a softer feel. Available FS. - Koto / Cypress / Ayous / Cypress / Koto - 89.4g - 5.85mm - 157x150mm - AN (102x25-23mm) - 1250Hz - Balance: 2.4cm (Low)

Custom order. - Soft Pine / SZLC / Ayous / Kiri / Ayous / SZLC / Soft Pine - 88g - 5.7mm - 1528Hz - Balance: 2.0cm (Very Low)

Two custom blades for a father and son, based on the third series Grubba Carbon. - Anigre / Soft-Carbon / Ayous / Soft-Carbon / Anigre - 89 and 88g - 5.3mm - 1100Hz - Balance: 2.5 and 2.1cm

#440 and 441 sold

It's similar, but not exactly the same shape. It flares out more on the bottom, it's also thicker but slightly rounder near the wings.

This one was supposed to be a custom order, but unfortunately it turned out to be a little slower than what we were aiming for. It's loosely based on a DHS 032, but with a different ply structure, Hinoki and Western Red Cedar instead of Basswood and Luan. Built with hide glue, a classic looking...

Added #356, 440 and 441

Castanholas fits very nicely 😁

This blade introduces a new fiber I've been using - Spectra. Spectra and Dyneema (used by Tibhar) are Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene fibers. This remarkably durable material is one of the world’s strongest and lightest fibers. Performance wise, this fiber feels soft, with a moderate...

"FZD is a beast and he uses a Viscaria, maybe I should use one" or "That guy has tremendous skill and placement and he uses a 5 ply, maybe I should use one". How are these two different? They aren't, and they are both wrong approaches because those players are not you. Different tools for...

I don't get it. First you complain about the ALC blade I made for being too slow. Then you go and open a thread saying everyone else is wrong because carbon blades are too fast. If that's the case, then the blade should be working out great for you. Or maybe it really is way too slow. But wait...

And once in a while, this handle comes along 🙂 Left: - Smoked Eucalyptus / Ayous / Textreme-Carbon / Ayous / Textreme-Carbon / Ayous / Smoked Eucalyptus - 88.7g - 5.9mm - 1335Hz - Balance: 2.8cm (Low) Right: - Koto / Glassfiber-Carbon / Ayous / Kiri / Ayous / Glassfiber-Carbon / Koto - 88.9g...

The new printing technique was one of the things I wanted to showcase, I can basically print anything with perfect quality now. I wish I had come up with something fancier, but it's not easy at all 😅.

You are judging my ability with your sample of one blade. I never claimed the ALC was too thin, ALC is always the same thickness, I don't even now where you are getting that. On your blade I didn't claim the core was too thin, I said it was too heavy which limited the amount of resin in the...

I'm not gonna argue how this shape will give you a bigger sweetspot or whatever... Honestly, I just wanted to make a defensive blade in the shape of a shield. When I think of a shield, the Knights Templar come to mind, hence the whole theme. The thick Mahogany outer layers make this blade...

I told myself I would give up, but a lot of people read the threads and I would really like to stop perpetuating myths (at the risk of sounding like another forum member 😅). You keep on insisting on this, after I clearly told you, and presented proof, that the medial layer on Butterfly blades is...
