SDC Handmade Blades

[hipnotic]

If Timo Boll was a girl 🙂

This one isn't particularly soft, I would say it sits in the middle of the hardness spectrum for this kind of composition. However, it's fast, crisp and very stable.

I have tried them. The 3+2 plays wonderfully! 👏

This is blade eight and nine that I’ve bought from Sérgio. Both of the blades play very, very nicely but the 3+2 is my favourite and the blade I play regurarly.

The 3+2 blade has a soft Hinoki feeling but packs a punch! I can really not get around why there isn’t more Hinoki/ALC blades out there. I couldn’t be happier with this blade.

Spectra is indeed an interesting material. The composition is not as soft (which is the main reason I prefer the other blade) but produces a wonderfully cracking sound at high impact shots.

As before I can highly recommend buying from Sérgio. He’s the man!

Nine blades by SDC, Your'e a serious hoarder 😱

OK, that's a very similar construction as Mjölnir, (Sucupira instead of ALC and Kiri instead of Ayous)
I would probably like this one too.

What's the handle material?

The Mjölnir specs:
Composition: Hinoki 1.0mm / Sucupira 0.6mm / Kiri 3.4mm / Sucupira 0.6mm / Hinoki 1.0mm ~6.6mm

Weight: 87.0g
Thickness: 6.65mm
Freq.: 1442Hz
Balance: 3.6cm (Med)
Handle: American red wood

Yes, definately similarities! You also get that soft yet stable feel I guess. The handle if Afzelia if i recall correctly.

The way I see it I’m not hoarding but compensating for lack of playing time😂

I guess the feel should be very similar.
A hint: Biljadrexperten (TTEX) has a sale on Tenergies now, I have ordered me some.

What rubber did You dress it with?

You like'm hard. Me not so much, and I absolutely hate stickiness, I think they are dust magnets. With my blade I started from basics and I'm working my way up right now. I'm not sure what to try next time, maybe a thinner (1.7mm) Tenergy, well see....

Custom order, based on a Nittaku Goriki but with a standard head size.

- Walnut / Walnut / Walnut / Walnut / Walnut
- 101.2g
- 5.1mm
- 990Hz
- Balance: 3.0cm (Med)

This blade and you work in general is truly outstanding. I spotted an error or maybe an oversight because the Goriki is a seven Walnut ply and here also it seems.
By the way this frequency can seem slow but I think it is necessary to keep some flex due to the composition itself and with a full swing I am sure that the ball lands pretty fast on the other side of the table.

Keep up your work, it is outstanding. Bravo

Well spotted, the blade was a 7ply just as the Goriki, I made a mistake writing the composition.

Thanks for the support 🙂

- Limba / Spruce / Ayous / Spruce / Limba
- 88.7g
- 5.8mm
- 1250Hz
- Balance: 1.9cm (Very Low)

 

[Der_Echte]

Balance not low enough mister...

I see the balance point getting lower and lower preference for an increasing segment of the market. I like that a LOT.

man that is a Waldner 2022!😁

 

[Lazer]

Waldner has moved on to a carbon blade.
