Ah (Experience: ４〜５ years) A racket for starting chop defense

The chop control on this is amazing. Even if I tense up from nerves during a match, the ball still lands in my opponent's court, so I can chop with real peace of mind, and since the ball floats and comes in slow, it's easy to reset my position. That said, if you don't shift your weight properly, the ball gets shallow. In that sense too, it's ideal for learning the basics of chopping. The push is also easy to use, and I can cut it aggressively with confidence.
As for attacking, it's hard to put the ball away in one shot. But thanks to how well it holds the ball, topspin drive attacks are easy to pull off, and if your chops and pushes are stable, that alone can be enough to score points — unless you're playing top-level players. No matter what style a chopper plays, if their chopping isn't stable they're no threat at all. So I'd recommend this to anyone learning the basics of chopping, or to players who build their game around chopping.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

Muramatsu style cut man (Experience: ２〜３ years) The best chopper blade

First off, I can't recommend this to advanced players.
I'd recommend it to beginner/intermediate choppers (within their first 1-2 years).Just like it's advertised, the chop control and cutting sharpness are outstanding. Serves cut really well too.
Smashes and drives can also feel good depending on the rubber.
(Note❗️ tacky rubber isn't a great match here — it barely bounces...)
I'd recommend this to choppers looking for chop control and sharp cuts.
It's worth trying at least once.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

It was described as not having much bounce, so I figured it wouldn't, but it actually flexes and bounces more than I expected. Drives are fast too. The feel is this soft "thock-thock" kind of sensation. As a chopping blade, the handle is a bit on the thin side. The weight is on the light side. Chops end up feeling a bit light, though that might depend on the rubber.

Looking at just the blade, it might be true that it doesn't have much attacking power, but when it comes to hard hits like smashes, the blade's own power doesn't really matter much anyway, so personally it's not an issue for me. I'd recommend it for anyone who wants to pair it with a spin-friendly rubber and rip through the ball.

Yutchi @ cut Doesn't fly well

It really doesn't fly at all lol. I used it for a whole year in my first year of high school and actually liked it quite a bit. The chop control is obviously excellent, and you can really put heavy backspin on your pushes, so opponents can't smash them back hard! It's perfect for building the fundamentals of chopping.

Manufacturing (Experience: １１〜２０ years) A starter blade for choppers

This is a good blade to start out with if you're going for a chopping style.
You won't get much speed on attacks, but it's very easy to handle on defense — chopping, pushing, and so on.
It depends on the person, but I'd call it a good beginner blade for inverted-inverted choppers.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

Fukutaka Great for chopping beginners

The blade is thin, so it doesn't bounce much.
In exchange, the control is excellent.
It's a perfect blade for anyone starting out as a chopper.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Soft
