the core can not be limba ....it will be to heavy when it is limba .... IMHO the second ply under the karbon could be limba and the core looks more like paulownia (kiri)

Could be... I also thought it sounded strange, but that was what I remembered him saying...

I found out this evening that the core material is abachi and not Limba, so Bob you were right. I have edited my original post so that the info is right. :)

The blade of Xu Xin is not a Nostalgic blade. It has carbon on it.
Not really, the new Xu Xin blade is still 5 ply all wood with the top layer as koto. The combination of the 5 layers are koto-ayous-ayous-ayous-koto

Probably, Stiga was wrong when they gave this info to me personally and you are correct. Lol.

Sarcasm or not, these are the pictures I got from the source. It's a store that I've dealt with in China. The store owner literally say it is koto-ayous-ayous-ayous-koto.
