I did it with yinhe w6 blade and it plays just fine. As the previous guys said: there will be probably a 1 or 2 holes at the back that you can cover somehow, but there will be missing part of the logo on the top of the handle probably. At least it's there in mine w6.

what is "straight" refering to? There are non-straight violins too?

Nope, he said he have 20 penhold blades he is not using. So total number is higher. I'm not surprised as I'm on the same boat, if you won't get anything from Kazama, I will look into mine pile.

apologies for late response, but I finally had a chance to measure it and... I think my durometer must be from china too :) The black top skywing, labeled as H40 is having measured hardness of the sponge: 38-40, measured in various places. Similarly for red skywing the device says 40-42, so I...

Interesting change: from Yinhe Pro01 (outer) to H301 (inner). Can you elaborate on why and how do you find H301 compared to Pro01?

wow this DrNeubauer page is from past millenium

I have H301 (non-z) in penhold and there is no serial number on the handle like in the mentioned video, but instead it is above handle... attaching image. So if you have this too, maybe the rubber covers it? My other DHS PowerG blades have those numbers split to both sides of the handle.

There is no reason to be sorry for penhold players as we mostly handling the blade not a handle. But yeah: I customize my handle with files. Pic attached.

Close to what you asking is Sanwei TwoFace and XVT TwoFace: wood on one side and carbon on the other.

Well, that's what the rubber says as hardness. If you are really interested I can measure them with densitometer.

Not really at least for Pro 02, it is Taksim clone, this is outer carbon and cpen only handle.

:O ... On the one hand: I was going to ask you NOT to put reviews like that, on the other hand now I'm going to test that myself... This is pure cruelty!

Hey TTD readers, In August 2026, there is an internation event I'm helping organising. The flyer is attached. Contact details are on the flyer, but you can contact me as well. I can be local guide, shady TT deals support ;-) etc. I should be available to have a five, or discuss chinese...

So what's your unicorn?

Amazing stuff, thanks for recommendation!

I was going to post that too. Additionally: you can try to mix glues: 1 layer of dhs 15 and two of rev. 3 to get different effects :)

Hey there, I have in my collection blades slightly used or not used at all with CPEN, ST, FL handles that judging from the direction my interest in TT is going I will problably newer use. Those are mostly inexpensive chinese blades. And I know some people are leaving JPEN, so asking this: will...

yeah, 986 is carbon blade and you can feel it when hiting harder. I need to check if I preffer carbon with cpen also. I think it was Zhan Jike on the podcast saying that kids today should start with inner carbon, then switch to outer. That could be right for me, even tho I'm far from being a kid.

I glued and played with 986 first time today and I must say that I'm impressed with the quality and playability. Similarly to heheboi, I glued cheap chineese rubbers: 729 cross violet on FH and reactor corbor on BH, just for testing and it played wonderful... It played so much better that my...
