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.

Yu Flies farther than attack blades lol

This is a model that boasts top-class attacking power among chopping blades.
Because it really flies, it's quite hard to keep under control at first, but once you get used to it, you get fast, stable chops from away from the table, and drives with speed like a carbon blade close to the table.
Personally, I think rubbers that let the ball sink in well suit it best.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Soft

I think short pips suit it better than long pips. Chops bite well and are stable too. It's also easy to drive when attacking. It's a perfect fit for a modern-style chopper.

This blade is just heavy, period.
The first time I picked it up, I thought, "wow, I picked a crazy heavy one."
Since the blade itself is stiff, even with a soft rubber, you can hit a perfectly good forehand as a chopping-focused player.
For the forehand, even if you're an attack-focused player, I think you'd be satisfied if you put on an attack-oriented rubber like Tenergy.
For the backhand, pips rubber might be more stable. Even with short pips, something soft and light — like a sponge-less sheet — pairs better with this blade.
It might not be great to recommend for beginners. I thought it'd be good as a second or third racket.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness hard

Compared to other chopping blades, it bounces really well.
And it's heavy.
But because of that weight, once you get used to handling it, you can chop with heavy backspin over and over.
It's good for a chopper-style player who attacks a lot.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness hard

First of all it's just heavy (lol). I have long pips on one side, so it didn't bother me that much, but I think it could be pretty demanding for people running inverted rubber on both sides, or inverted plus short pips.
That said, of course that weight brings good effects to this blade!
As the title suggests, you don't get pushed back by your opponent's shots, and the weight lets your chops bite
Some people say the bounce makes chopping unstable, but I feel like it's less about getting thrown off by the opponent's shot and more about mishitting because you didn't swing through properly yourself, so if you're a player who can chop solidly, you can combine chopping and attacking at a very high level!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

It's on the heavy side, and among chopping blades it bounces really well.
It's a blade I'd recommend for chopper-style players who attack a lot.
Because it's heavy, if you swing quickly your chops really bite.
Once you get used to the bounce, you can keep your chops well under control.
It's a great blade ☆Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

This is the blade a senior chopper on my team swears by, and it's just as heavy as the SK7, if not heavier. It's a pretty heavy blade-and-rubber combo, but it was easy to chop with. It bounces a lot, but you can still keep it under control properly, and smashes and drives get good speed even with Hurricane rubber. The feel off the ball is a bit on the hard side, but not so hard that it's unmanageable, so I don't find it a particular problem. That said, what I do want to say about using this blade is that you need solid fundamentals. For chopping, if you don't read your opponent's spin to some degree, the ball floats up or goes into the net. Since it's a bouncy blade, if you don't judge the spin correctly, the ball flies off. For smashes and drives too, unless you hit in a form close to correct posture, the blade will pull your body off balance and send the ball in a wild direction. If a skilled player uses it, they can get performance that matches or exceeds the spec, but for a beginner it just becomes a blade that sends the ball flying without any spin on it. I'd recommend it to choppers who really want to attack as well. Right now, chopping alone isn't enough to win, so in a sense this is a chopper's blade suited to the current era.
