Well xvt may not be bad, but if youre looking to clone the viscaria, xvt will be far off i think. The yinhe pro 01 will be very close I believe.
I'm not necessarily looking for a Viscaria clone. Just something similar to, but sightly slower than, the V14 Pro. I've read both the Viscaria and Pro-01 are just that because they both have a slightly thicker outer koto plies compared to the V14 Pro which has a really thin koto outer ply. The reason the XVT Dragon caught my eye was because it is an outer ALC blade with what appears to be a thicker koto outer ply AND is less than half the price of the Pro-01 and more than 7 times less than a Viscaria.
All that being said, I placed an order for an XVT Dragon this morning. Hopefully, it'll arrive within a month so I can see how good, or bad, these things are.
