still waiting on the H9 ( 10 years later)

Yogi, would you be able to share any info on the redesigned handles? Are they bigger?Smaller?etc. I sometimes wish the flared handle on the XIOM OFFENSIVE S was a tad bit thicker. Most comfortable handle ever (for me) was/is STIGA's ST handle on a Vanilla/Plain Clipper Wood. A close second is Stiga's LEGEND handles and TSP Swat Power Flared. TSP SWAT POWER handle is ever so slightly squared at the end which enhances the feedback of my grip and makes it easier for minor adjustments from FH to BH, etc. After some time of course I can adjust but there's nothing like holding a blade for the first time and it fitting like a glove!

Ha! Actually the best accessory that ever came with my first ever xiom (vega pro) blade was that xiom sandpaper block.

I have only seen the pre-production designs and unlike the old novus blades, the handles right now are oval shaped. I will measure them when I get my samples in January.

Wow Yasaka willbe releasing Rakza Z series
