Victas Koki Niwa Wood vs Swat Power?

[Robin0910]

Is there any difference?
The plies, weight and thickness are the same.
The niwa is slightly smaller.
Any differences in terms of playing characteristics?

It is the exact same structure apart from the handle, Victas swat power and Koki Niwa wood have a similar small handle, I think it's just the colours that changed.

The old TSP swat power handle is a lot larger and the blade feels more powerful despite being the same composition (this is based off my playing experience with it)

There are 2 versions of TSP Swat FL handle: The regular the slim. Is the handle the only thing which’s not the same? are there any other differences between the 2?

Here's a comparison pic of the two blades, the wood of koki niwa blade seems darker but the thickness and everything else is the same. Also the Koki niwa blade weighed 85g and the Swat Power weighed 86 so a miniscule difference.

Sweet! Is the handle really bigger? I can’t notice the difference with only my eyes

And have you tried the regular TSP swat by any chance? Is the handle of that the same size?

I always thought the TSP Swat Power was slightly longer, however on close inspection the length of handles is the same, it is just the width of the TSP swat power which is larger.

Heres an old TSP SWAT with a new Victas SWAT, the Victas handle feels the same as the Koki niwa and TSP handle is the same slightly wider larger handle as TSP swat power

Đây là hình ảnh so sánh của hai lưỡi dao, gỗ của lưỡi koki niwa có vẻ tối hơn nhưng độ dày và mọi thứ khác đều giống nhau. Ngoài ra, lưỡi Koki niwa nặng 85g và Swat Power nặng 86 nên có sự khác biệt rất nhỏ.

Very directly to compare. Seem like you are very interested in 7-ply allwood blade
