Cheap DHS blades have low quality and QC, IMO it's a toss up wether or not you get a good one, much better to buy Yinhe if you're looking at Chinese brands.

Being at the edge of the blade, I don't think it would matter wether you boiled your own animal products to make hide glue, or simply used superglue from the local market

Behind all the masks, it is spelled Sjan

Unfortunate to have a blade delaminate like this but it should be fairly easily to fix with a clamp and a bit of glue.

I have not bought RWV specifically but I have had several Stiga blades and the newer ones do seem to have a better quality finish to them, especially the ones with metal lens (in my case, Celero, Intensity). The handles and cut around the blade edges are much smoother than the plastic lens...

Fastarc G1, Ventus Extra

I believe there are a couple sellers on Ebay that still might have old stock of the previous version OffS

I missed the train on acquiring the Mazunov and there are very few 5 ply wood blades in the same class. Have you ever tried Xiom Aria? All the other fast/hard 5 ply blades like Goiabao, Ebenholz/Rosewood etc have very hard very thin outers unlike Aria and Mazunov which have thicker outer plies.

I'm thinking it might be a special club edition, Brave seems to be a TT club in Tokyo.

Alpha is thinner and more flexible, better for looping. Premium Contact is a bit thicker and feels more solid, better for mixed attacking. I thought the SGS handle fell apart rather quickly and didn't like the foam

I think there is something going on with both topsheet and sponge. If it were only done to the sponge, then the rubber would curl towards the sponge as the tuning dissipates, instead for the most part the rubbers shrink overall and remain flat.

Yinhe Pro Feeling has Koto outer plies which makes it a tad harder and more crisp than a limba or ayous inner carbon, but the handle is fairly beefy which is very nice to hold

Keep in mind that Stiga makes two flared handle stores, Legend and Master, Legend being bigger and thicker. The Sweden Classic felt a bit closer to the Around Classic than the Allround Evo to me, but they are similar all the way around. However the Yasaka flared handle feels a bit in between...

Look at Valor table tennis, I believe outside of custom blade makers they are the only producers of blades exceeding the standard defensive headsize of 165x155mm

Yinhe T4S

Discontinued, but Nittaku Hammond Pro Beta

Chocolate fudge, is this a good flavor?

I believe the old brown handle Banda Waldner blades had a similar construction to the Dicon he later used, limba-spruce-ayous. I don't know if he ever used the Waldner Senso yellow handle but the Senso Carbon seems to be based off of it instead of the Dicon. All good blades nonetheless but it...

This is why Truls likes Cybershape so much😂

18 days ago you posted that your setup was Diode, Feint 3 and EL-P which should be much faster than the Legend. But perhaps tacky rubbers may help in that they slow the ball down
