      Tenaji By the way, it's Chinese-style (the grip)

      Player reviews

      In a word, it's a runaway dragon.
      It's a super fast, flying blade.

      I think it's easy to use, but

      it's probably too much for beginners.

      I love Fortis (Experience: 2〜3 years) Heavy, but easy to use

      Player reviews

      It's heavy, but it can do everything from pushes to topspin drives to chiquitas. The spin on the drive especially is crazy. I think it works well with pretty much any rubber.

      seisei It's good after all

      Player reviews

      This is the blade that Oshima, who's really coming up right now, uses.
      Let me quickly list the pros and cons.
      Pros
      - No quirks, easy to handle
      - Great value for money
      - Even though it's a 7-ply, it generates plenty of spin and the power is more than enough
      Cons
      The blade itself is heavy, so you'll need to adjust your total racket weight. Or just look for a lighter individual blade.
      That's my quick summary. The fact that it has so few downsides is really what makes this blade great.
      Definitely give it a try

      Tatsudeko (Experience: 2〜3 years) A bit heavy

      Player reviews

      They say it's made for close-to-the-table play, but it's a bit heavy.
      It depends on preference, but it's a little heavy for the quick movements you need close to the table, so it's tiring.
      That said, you do get heavy shots because of it.

      PARADOX (Experience: 2〜3 years) Shocking……

      Player reviews

      From the moment I started hitting with it, I felt like the control was amazing for everything. The short game is really easy to play too, and the spin on my topspin drives is insane lol
      Anyway, you won't regret buying this!!

      Forutiusu FT Tsukai (Experience: 2〜3 years) Lets me play exactly the way I imagine

      Player reviews

      It's a simple blade with no standout traits, but that lack of character is kind of its trait. Even though it's a 7-ply, it's really easy to use. It has good flex. Before switching to the Fortius FT I used the Acoustic, and this keeps that same flex while adding more power and speed.

      The thickness is just right too, so you don't get pushed back by your opponent's shots. It's also really easy to generate your own spin. In topspin rallies, the flex lets you send back stable, controlled shots too.
      The short game doesn't run away from you either — delicate touch shots like stops and chiquitas are also really easy to pull off.

      Rubbers that pair well: Tenergy 05 on both forehand and backhand makes drives easy too, but personally I found
      F: Fastarc G-1
      B: Tenergy 64
      made a wide variety of techniques easy to execute.

      Front-end haste drive Man (Experience: 4〜5 years) Best value for money!

      Player reviews

      You can produce heavy shots, it's got speed, and being wood it's easy to control too — this is a fantastic blade!
      I'd recommend it to anyone who finds the SWAT lacking, or who can't quite handle the SK7.
      SWAT > Clipper > Fortius > SK7
      Though if you get a heavy piece, that can be rough (^^;;
