I used to use this one. Back then I was a chopper with short pips on the backhand. True to its selling point, the willow surface ply catches the ball while the paulownia core comes into play on offense — it's a great blade.
True to Darker's style, the feel is pleasant, and I liked the grip design too. Mine weighed 86g.
My impression was that it's about 50/50 between offense and defense, maybe leaning slightly toward defense. It works fine with pretty much any rubber, but if I had to pick, a harder spin-oriented tension rubber or a tacky rubber gives a better balance between attack and defense. On the backhand, either short pips or long pips work fine.
The downside — maybe common to willow-ply blades? — is that depending on the glue, peeling off the rubber can take some of the wood with it, so I'd strongly recommend applying a protective varnish.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Soft

This is the blade I use regularly. My chops fly straight and slow, and it's hard to tell the knuckle balls from the spinny chops, which confuses my opponents. On attacking shots the paulownia core gives it a nice spring, and it's easy to put spin on pushes.
