The TSP Swat is a well balanced, sensitive offensive blade in a class of it's own. The Japanese development team, led by former world class player Koji Matsushita has managed a blade that defines the attributes of feel and quality build again. Through the delicate ball touch in conjunction with the light 7-ply blade, TSP Swat is the perfect OFF- blade for the variable topspin players.

It performs like something that costs more than 10,000 yen
Speed, spin — both are ridiculously strong
Because there's flex built into a 7-ply
the control is also excellent
Beginners can use it and advanced players can use it too
A blade with amazing value for moneyOverall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

The second racket (Experience: ２〜３ years) Easy to use!?

My impression after using it is that the feel really comes through in your hand. I think it's because I paired it with Fastarc S1, but the speed is really fast! I'd recommend it for drive-oriented players.
Also, the blade is fairly light so I think even beginners could use it. It's cheap too, so definitely give it a try and experience that feel and speed for yourself.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

I LOVE STIGA (Experience: ４〜５ years) An easy-to-use blade!

It's light and easy to use, plain and simple.
For a 7-ply, the bounce is kept well under control, so it's easy to control.
On the other hand, it might lack a bit of power on drives and smashes...
If you've felt like a 5-ply wasn't quite enough and want to move up to a 7-ply, I think this is a great blade to start with.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

I decided it was about time I got my own blade, so I bought this. My coach recommended the Swat, saying it has great value for money. Using it, I found it easy to handle and it felt great to hit with. Afterward though, my hand smelled and that bothered me a bit. I'm still figuring out which rubber to go with.

This is a friend's blade. I got to hit with it, and the sweet spot is really wide, the feel is nice, and the power transfers well into the ball so it really flies. I'd recommend it to beginners and advanced players alike.

It's just easy to use, period. On top of that, I think it has the power to punch through and the strength to not lose out in exchanges!
It seems to match with pretty much any rubber. The feel isn't too hard or too soft. It's a bit on the mellow side. It's not specialized for speed or spin, and in a good way, it's kind of unremarkable. I think that's probably the secret to why it scores well across the board.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

This was the first blade I ever used. The overall balance is really good, and it's a well-rounded blade with a pretty high level of speed, spin, and control all around — an all-purpose blade that suits a wide range of playing styles, from beginners to advanced players. When my game wasn't going well, I went back to this blade for a change of pace, and I was surprised to find it still worked out well. I haven't tried it myself, but I think it would also match well with short pips or long pips rubber. If you're just starting out in table tennis, please give this a try.
