Perfect for defense as well as quick counterspins far from the table.
The enlarged head of the blade provides the necessary control for chopping and blocking.
The Joo Saehyuk is first choice for defenders who rely on heavy spin combined with fast topspins due to the hard feel.

It felt really good
You can attack with it and the chops are pretty stable too!
It's heavy, so it's not suited for people without much strength
I don't think short pips go well with it
Personally I like the feel of the ball on this one lolOverall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

I don't think it's actually hard, but for a chopping blade it feels like it has a strong core. There's no real flex to it (just my personal impression), but since I'm not a fan of flexy blades myself, I actually like this feel.
The bounce is definitely good, but you could tone it down by pairing it with a lower-bounce rubber. Even if you hit through the back of the ball to cut it, it still carries all the way to the other side of the table with no problem. I think it works with tacky rubber too, but a medium-hardness tension rubber is probably the best match…
It puts good spin on the ball too. When you chop from a high contact point without dropping too low, the trajectory is aggressive and fun to use. Same goes for pushes.
No complaints when it comes to attacking. The downside is the weight, though. If you're running long pips on the backhand it's probably just right, but if you're inverted on both sides or running thick short pips, brace yourself lol
That weight does mean it's hard to get pushed around, thoughIf the handle were a bit thicker I'd like it even more…

It flies pretty well, so I put on a tacky rubber and tried chopping with it, and it became incredibly stable. That said, I wouldn't really recommend it for junior high schoolers who are still developing. If you put on something like Tenergy, it'll take even longer to get used to, and by the time you do, the rubber's prime will already be over, so I can't recommend that either. So overall I wouldn't recommend this combo to everyone. The advantage of this combo is that it puts a ton of spin on the ball, and since it's a tacky rubber, as I said it lands just right and stays stable, so once you get used to it you can even produce sinking chops.

Black rabbit (Experience: ４〜５ years) Maybe for aggressive choppers?

Even accounting for the fact that both rubbers are pretty offensive, I'd say this is still a bouncy blade.
I felt it suits short pips better than long pips on the backhand, for a style where you smash whenever you get the chance.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness hard

diode (Experience: ２〜３ years) For choppers who also want to attack.

This feels like the blade I'd been waiting for. The forehand bounces amazingly. And yet, if you chop it, the chop stays low. I think that's amazing. If you're going to use this blade, it'd be a waste not to also do forehand chops like Joo Se-hyuk, the player it's modeled after.
An attack-to-defense ratio of about 3:7 feels just right.
I'd really love for attack-focused choppers to use this.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Wandering cut man Just bounces so well

It bounces a lot more than a normal chopper's blade.
But in exchange, counter-attacking is as easy as with an attacking blade.
I can't recommend it for beginner choppers.
So I'd recommend it for choppers whose chopping form is already solid and who attack a lot!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard
