Pasta store's owner (Experience: ２〜３ years) A racket that excels in usability

The feel is a bit on the hard side, and the initial speed is fairly fast, so backhand pushes work fine too.

It makes a sharp, high-pitched "clack" sound off the ball.

Control is a step down compared to the Septear R, but the handling is good, so overall it's an easy blade to use.

The cork on the grip is a non-slip type, so it's easy to hold.

I think beginners would be fine with a control-oriented rubber, but stepping up to something like Hammond or Fly Att also worked well and felt easy to use.

For better or worse, it's an all-round type blade.

I use it with Hammond, thick.

Single-sided pen holder (Experience: More than ２０ years) The best

It has an outstanding sense of individuality and really stands out among Japanese-style penhold blades. The shape has rounded corners but still gives you the crisp swing-through of a square blade. The feel on contact comes with a pleasant, high-pitched sound that keeps you motivated.

Small Fish Pendra (Experience: ２〜３ years) Beginner blade

Light and great control.
Makes a satisfying "clack" sound.
Since it's light, you've got plenty of room even after peeling off the cork and putting rubber on the back!
A really easy-to-use blade!
