I am looking for a slow blade.Similar to a Stiga Off classic, but with hinoki top.
What do You think of. (I see You do honoki veneers in 1.0 mm and 0.6 mm) .
Hinoki 1.0mm / Hinoki 0.6mm / Ayous ??? / Hinoki 0.6 mm / Hinoki 1.0 mm
Then play with the Ayous thickness to get the proper speed?
Is this possible?
Cheers

I have a similar blade just a few posts above, part of the 5 blades series. That one is Hinoki 0.6 / Hinoki 1.0 / Ayous 3.0. It's not a rocket launcher but it has got some speed, your suggestion would be a bit slower. I also have another one even further back, one with the "dotec" handle, that one is Hinoki 1.0 / Padauk 0.5 / Kiri 3.1, and for me it's more in line with what you are after.

The medial ply is the one that contributes the most to the type of feedback we get in our hand. Relatively speaking, the second option will feel more solid, bigger sweetspot, less vibration and feedback in the hand. The first option will be the opposite, it may in fact feel too mushy depending on the rest of the composition. Personally I like to use Hinoki in thicker layers with a harder layer underneath to support it, it can be a denser wood of a composite layer.

Hi everyone, I'm the owner of the last blade posted by Sergio.
Thanks for the kind comments about the handle design!It took me longer than expected to reach this final design (I made more than 30 different verions of it, small tweaks between than), but the final result was worth it. Thanks again Sergio for the amazong work!
The handle design is kind of a mix between OSP Virtuoso AC and BTY Fukuhara ZLF.
I wanted something with kind of simple lines, but not too simple/too "classic", also not too modern/ too fancy. I think the final result was pretty good =D,I see it as an atemporal design
Unfortunately I wasn't able to test it yet. Not only due to covid situation (almost all places are already running, but I'm still cautious tough), but since a couple months ago other things are going on on my life that requires higher priority than TT. Now I'm not sure when I will be able to play TT again...hopefully next year maybe.
hipnotic;354099The handle was made with Amazon Rosewood, Cherry and endgrain Padauk with a Ebony cap. Don't ask me what the tag says because I can't remember
. The owner is out there, maybe he can chime in?
It is just my last name 😁The Following 2 Users Like shinshiro's Post:

It isn't, I have some stuff I need to update but I haven't had time yet. But I do have a note explaining I can get more stuff other than what's on the list.
Purple Heart is also very heavy, around 905 Kg/m3, so between Wenge and A. Rosewood in terms of density, but same janka as A. Rosewood (11190N).The Following User Likes hipnotic's Post:

Yeah. That blade kind of looks like a work of art that should be put in a frame and hung on a wall. Which would be a shame to keep someone from feeling how nice I am sure it feels to play with.
One day they will make rubbers that are clear for blades that look as good as that.The Following User Likes UpSideDownCarl's Post:

Typical inner fiber blade, but with a small difference. We decided to use thinner outer plies, and a slightly thicker core on this one to improve the speed. This worked as expected, but it actually made it a bit too fast for the owner (we already solved that 🙂). The Flared handle shape is also different than what I usually do, it's a little wider near the wings, which turns it into an almost anatomic shape.
Composition: Black Limba / Ayous / A-C / Ayous / A-C / Ayous / Black Limba
Weight: 89.4g
Thickness: 5.85mm

Balance: 2.9cm (Low/Med)

This is a light and fast blade with a relatively soft feel (considering it's a composite blade). The low balance facilitates the use of the wrist, so it's suitable for playing an aggressive close to the table style. But the main feature of this blade is the semi-anatomic handle, if you don't have different grips for FH and BH and like to keep the hand in a fixed position, this one is just perfect.
Available FS.

Amazing how rude someone can be. He hasn't ever tried a hand made blade made by hipnotic and he is not only posting this kind of comment, he is posting links to his own website where the name is an obvious copy of the name of this forum.
I am deleting the original post to delete the links from this thread. To date, I have let him post the links he posts because they do have to do with Table Tennis. But an awful lot of his posts have nothing to do with the thread or comments in the thread he is posting in and look like an excuse to post links, and so, to me, they look like spam; just table tennis related spam.The Following 3 Users Like UpSideDownCarl's Post:

i have not read any other posts from timBoll so can not make a proper judgement .
If your decision to spank him would only be based on the very comment you list and reply to, I could not agree.
It is not an insult just a personal opinion.................which is allowed here, right. 😁
