With chopping blades, the compatibility between blade and rubber tends to matter a lot, but out of all the chopping blades currently on the market, I think this one is the least picky about rubber.
It works well with tacky rubber, tension rubber, anything really, and the blade's own characteristics really come through.
Also, since every basic technique is easy to do with it, it's not tied to skill level at all — I'd recommend it to anyone from beginners to advanced players.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I came back from the Matsushita Koji ZC.
Pure wood really does have better control after all.
With the ZC, the feel didn't change all that much and the ball still came out with good spin, but there were times my fine touch got overridden by the blade, which made things hard to control.
With the regular Matsushita Koji, that overriding of fine touch happens less, and I've scored more points on defense. That said, compared to the ZC it's a bit harder to blow a shot past someone in one go, but if you build up some tension and go for a full swing, I felt the difference wasn't that big.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

Hetare Cutman (Experience: ４〜５ years) A staple for chopping

I used this when I was just starting out with chopping, and both chopping and pushing were easy to do with it.
I put on Tackiness Chop, Vega Asia, and Rakza 7, and it paired well with all of them.
I think this is a blade that, if a chopper is stuck deciding what to buy, they can just get this one and be fine.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I decided to buy this after reading the reviews here, and I've used it for three years.
Chops are easy to hold down and cut sharply,
and it's a blade that makes it easy to hit consecutive shots when attacking,
but the feel of the blade itself has a hollow "poke-poke" quality that I personally wasn't too fond of. Still, it really is a blade that's easy for anyone to use - the kind of blade you can point to and say "just get this one" if a chopper is stuck choosing equipment.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Croquette (Experience: ２〜３ years) Flexes well

It feels like a blade that suits everyone, though it's built around a chopping-focused playing style. The blade flexes a lot, so you get decent spin on loops and chops. With my level of technique, when I put spin on my chops the ball didn't travel far at all, so it also demands good footwork. Once you learn to nail sharp, heavily-spun chops from above, I feel there's nothing left for this blade to teach you. Because it flexes, backhand topspin drives are super easy to do.

Team Butterfly (Experience: Less than a year) Doesn't fly much, but easy to attack with

It probably also depends on the rubber you pair it with, but I assumed that being a chopper's blade, it would be hard to attack with. However, it's easier to attack with than I expected. I was originally a drive-oriented player, and I found it just right - not too much bounce, not too little. As for chopping, with tacky rubber you can get good spin, but it has a bit of a sticky, clingy feel, so personally I wouldn't recommend that combination. If you put on an attacking VICTAS rubber like I did, I think it becomes easier to play an all-around style.

Shirasu (Experience: ６〜１０ years) Great balance as expected. But the feel is cheap and hard

It's a blade with no real characteristics, in a good way.
You can attack, and you can chop.
Neither one is particularly easier than the other.
You can do both.
If you adjust the bounce through your rubber choice,
it should work for any playing style or level.
There's no weak point, so you won't lose because of this blade.
I think it's also easy to improve your game with.
It's a good blade you can use for a long time.That said, the feel isn't great.
It's a hard, hollow-feeling sensation.
"Cheap-feeling" would be the best way to put it.
Maybe they used hollow, flimsy wood for the core, with a hard surface layer.Since it's hard, a softer rubber might suit it.
There's not much sense of the ball gripping the sponge, and for me, personally,
it's not a blade that's satisfying to play with.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard
