My Excalibur has arrived. 112g without any rubber. 10.5mm thickness. Premium grade Japanese-Hinoki.
Will pair it with Tibhar MX-P on FH & Xiom Vega Europe on BH.
Usually I don't care about how blade looks but this one is almost too beautiful to put rubbers on it.
But anyway please post pics with rubbers on it, I am curious how thick it will look.
Awww geez, thanks Daj.Usually I don't care about how blade looks but this one is almost too beautiful to put rubbers on it.

Pics as requested:
Tried it out tonight at my club and MX-P is playable on this blade. It's hardness is the same as my current rubber i.e., Donic Bluefire M1 which is 47.5 degree hardness on ESN scale.I would say you risk to get an unplayable fast rocket on FH…

UpSideDownCarl;367054Why did you hide that beautiful handle behind grip tape?
I know, everyone likes different stuff.
How much does it weigh with the rubbers and the grip tape on it....so, fully "assembled"?
I know I know Carl, all of you expect me to keep my blade in her natural form like above.
But I acquire her not for ornament, but rather as a weapon to be used in battlefield. Hence I need to suit her up in finest armour to withstand the rigour of battle.
Finally, the final weight is 213g with all the dressage, still lighter than my previous Hinoki blade which weigh in at 218g. I think the Xiom rubber did shed some grammage off the blade. NB: The blade sans rubber is 112g where as the older one without rubber is 107g. Donic M1 rubber are heavier.
Nah, you set it up how you want. I may hate the feel of grip on a handle. But everybody is different. Battle armor....wearing less to be more nimble....
