Stuor FZD ALC

[TensorBackhand]

A mate needed a new blade so I ordered this FZD Alc for him from Stuor. Another friend has Viscaria so we tested the same G1 rubber on both to compare.

My friend is about 1900 and always plays Viscaria. He said the blades are 99% the same.

I thought the fzd was slightly stiffer, but mostly very similar. So for under $40, this is a nice option.

Now I don't want to give it away to my friend. It has a very crisp and nice feeling, honestly similar to the Viscaria vibration feeling. The surface also seems to be sealed or something, it has a nice finish and there is no splintering at all.

I also ordered comrade Viscaria Stuor and we liked it very much. I compared it with the original viscaria, but with a different rubber - the sensations are very similar. I can safely recommend the stuor for purchase

They really get things right with their "versions" of popular BTY blades.
And even the cheap blades are not too bad. The manufacturing quality is not up to par, but they play ok and for unter 10 USD you shouldn´t complain ;-)

Their version of Long V is better than I expected, very stable, maybe a bit less crisp feeling than the real one but for an amateur it's a looping beast

How is the blade size of the hl5 copy? And weight?

I have one, it is very head heavy as it has same size as original if i can remember correctly. Mine is very splinterd so i don't have the accurate weight

I feel with these blades you should almost use some sort of varnish or something on the wood that wouldnt affect the playing properties too much before gluing because im hearing a lot of reports that these blades splinter tons, they also sound llike they are worth buying.
Are these from Aliexpress?
What is the price range like?
Do the playing properties vary all that much?
