Control blade for amateur player

This user has no status.
Hello everyone I'm 26 yo, 185 cm. I had an operation to install a pacemaker, I am an amateur player, I've been playing for about 3 years and I have always had fast bases, Korbel Japan, Ma Lin Carbon, Zhang Jike, fast bases hindered my progress and now I want to completely stay on the control blade. Which blade to choose, considering that I am no longer can play actively with top spins due to surgery and I love to move away from the table and play more with cuts, blocks, some chop-blocks and return snakes and etc. I can't hit top-spins, I love to return and sometimes hit flat.
I want to improve my technique but don't know which blade to choose from:
1. Stiga Allround Classic
2. Yasaka Sweden Classic
3. Yasaka Sweden Extra
4. Donic appelgren allplay

Appegren allplay is too flexy specially if You have been playing for two yeas.
Out of Your selection I would pick Sweden Extra.

However Korbel is a pretty good allwod blade why not try some slower rubbers instead.
Bluegrip/Accuda S2 or even Mark V (DHS focus snipe if You like chinese rubbers) or something similar.

Edit: If You want to all defensive why not Yasaka Sweden defensive with Mark V. One of my practice mates uses that combination, its excellent for defensive play.

Cheers
