Unsurpassed ball feeling gives a perfect blade for players that can mix technical attack near the table and topspin play short distance from the table. Also a favorite with defensive players, due to superb control.

Yutchi @ cut For beginners

This is a blade aimed at beginners. The feel on contact is quite soft, and the control is really outstanding. I think it might be a love-it-or-hate-it kind of feel, but I'd recommend it to people switching over from a pre-rubbered blade, or to intermediate players!

For better or worse, it's a stable blade that isn't picky about rubber.
It's also not expensive, which is a strength — you can pick it up with peace of mind.
It's light in weight, so I'd recommend it to defensive/pips-out players, or to players who want stability on backhand strokes.
The material is also soft, which means it's a bit fragile, so watch out for that.

It doesn't have all that much bounce.
The blade is thin and light, so you can put rubber on both sides without issue.
Also, the hitting feel is soft, so opinions on it will probably be divided.
For better or worse, I'd call it a beginner's blade.

It's a control-focused blade without much bounce, but that also means it's easy to tune the feel with your rubber choice.
Backhand strokes are easy too, so I'd recommend it to penhold players wanting to move into using the backside, or to shakehand players who want extra stability.
That said, the top ply seems fairly fragile, so watch out for that.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Soft

I used the Chinese penhold version. The blade is big, so if you normally use shakehand, it feels quite different. The weight is more toward the tip, and the bounce is kept fairly moderate, so I think it's a good first Chinese penhold blade for building the basics.

I bought this as my very first racket.
It's quite soft and easy to handle, and it really doesn't have much bounce!
But if you've just started playing table tennis, I think putting Mark V on this would be a great choice.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Soft

The material is very soft, so if you pair it with tension rubber, you can confidently go for hard hits.
