Best blade from Butterfly, DHS or Nittaku for Dignics 09C FH + Dignics 05 BH for an intermediate-advanced player?

[struke]

Hi everyone,

I would like to ask for advice about choosing the best blade for the following setup:

FH: Butterfly Dignics 09C 2.1
BH: Butterfly Dignics 05 2.1

I am an intermediate-advanced player, and I am mainly looking at blades from Butterfly, DHS and Nittaku.

Price is not a factor for me. I am looking for the best and most suitable blade for this setup, not the cheapest or best value option.

My goal is a setup with:

- high control
- strong forehand topspin
- heavy spin
- good short game
- enough power from mid-distance
- stable backhand with Dignics 05
- suitable for an intermediate-advanced player
- not too bouncy or hard to control

I currently play with Butterfly Harimoto Innerforce ALC with Dignics 05 on both sides, and I like the control and feeling of the inner carbon blade.
However, on FH I feel that I want more spin, more grip and a heavier topspin ball, which is why I am considering Dignics 09C on FH.

I previously tried Viscaria with Dignics 05, but at that time my technique was weaker and it felt a little too fast/direct for me. Now I have improved and I am wondering if an outer ALC blade could be a good option again, especially with Dignics 09C on FH.

My main question is:

Which blade from Butterfly, DHS or Nittaku would be the most suitable and also popular/proven with Dignics 09C on FH and Dignics 05 on BH for an intermediate-advanced player?

I am especially interested in opinions from players who have actually used Dignics 09C on FH with Dignics 05 on BH.

Would you recommend an inner carbon blade, an outer ALC blade, or something else for this setup?

Thanks in advance.

DHS S968
FH: DIGNICS 09C
BH: ZYRE 03

This is a really good choice for high level players.

You already have this blade.. Harimoto ALC.

Just put D09C onto your current setup. D05 and D09C are already really good rubbers and will play well no matter the blade you put them on

If you don't like the blade anymore then it is really up to you to determine which direction you want to move coming from HALC. If you want a more direct upgrade from HALC you can look at HSALC or Ovtcharov

Three strikes, I'm done.

Edit: you've already been told the answer even before you asked it. Stop overthinking. Just stop it.
