    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Characterized by the weight and rigidity typical of 7-ply blades, this racket excels in power and feel. It receives high praise from aggressive players seeking wood material authenticity over special material rackets, though it requires strength and technique to handle effectively.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • 7-ply construction creates weight and hardness enabling powerful shots
    • Excellent feel and control characteristic of wood material rackets
    • Strong balance of speed and spin, particularly effective for drives
    • Requires player strength and technique; unsuitable for beginners
    • Great value compared to carbon rackets, appeals to feel-focused players
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveDelivers the classic 7-ply triple threat: heavy, hard, and springy, with exceptional wood feel and shot quality. Resists opponent force effectively and allows stable blocking. A truly excellent racket with great value.
    ▽ CriticalToo heavy with inadequate spin generation and early ball release. Arm-only swings cause fatigue; requires proper lower-body and rotational mechanics. Absolutely not recommended for beginners.

      Natto (Experience: 2〜3 years) A classic, tried-and-true racket

      Player reviews

      A 7-ply blade with a track record of use by top players — being 7-ply, you definitely feel the weight. The control, speed, and spin are all good, so I can recommend it for drive players. My recommended rubbers are Butterfly's Rozena and Nittaku's Fastarc G-1 — they go really well with it — and XIOM's Omega is a good match too. It's truly a classic, top-tier blade!

      I chop but can't hit when stopped, YO Man (Experience: More than 20 years) A drive player who doesn't use this racket isn't a real drive player.

      Player reviews

      I'm a drive player. At first I used a TSP blade, but my drives didn't have much spin, and it bothered me every day.
      So I decided to try an offensive blade — the SK7 Classic FL.
      It was my first offensive blade. I couldn't stop feeling excited.
      Then the blade arrived, and I started using it.
      At first I was surprised at how much it bounced. But little by little I got used to it, and tried putting some drives on.
      Then, an insane amount of spin came out. My chops also got sharper in the same way.
      After that, my opponents started making mistake after mistake, going long or into the net.
      And at some point, my worry about lacking spin just disappeared.
      The short game and serves are also easy to do. Sinking drives are easy too. But it's easily affected by incoming spin, and you can't get much distance from away from the table.
      Even so, I couldn't believe such a great blade existed.
      If you're struggling to put spin on the ball, I really want you to try this. Of course, it works whether you're a drive player or a chopper.
      Even now that I'm in junior high, I'm still using this blade. I can never go back to an all-round blade.
      I'll probably keep using this blade from now on too.

      Vegetables (Experience: 4〜5 years) From a block-focused perspective

      Player reviews

      It feels heavy, but you can block your opponent's drives stably.
      It's also good for attacking on your own — as long as you don't swing late, you can hit devastatingly powerful shots, and you can drive stably with your backhand too.
      That said, being a 7-ply blade, I think it's hard for beginners to use.

      kaoru (Experience: 6〜10 years) The classic 7-ply

      Player reviews

      I'd love to say "if you're torn on which 7-ply to get, get this one," but unless you have power or you put on an unorthodox rubber, it feels pretty heavy. Heavy, driving shots really pierce into the opponent's court.
      My main game is forehand short pips, and I feel like the great kick and the blade's moderate softness are mixed together at a high level. I think it's worth trying if you're a power player, or if you have short pips on either your forehand or backhand.

      Silken (Experience: 2〜3 years) Recommended by a friend

      Player reviews

      A friend recommended it, so I bought it as my second blade. I was already using the 7-ply Swat, so switching over wasn't hard at all. It takes spin firmly and produces good speed, so it's really easy to use, but it's a bit heavy, so it might be tough for someone without much power.

      Hako (Experience: 4〜5 years) The classic 7-ply!!

      Player reviews

      Heavy, hard, and it flies
      It's on the denser side even among 7-ply blades, and if you put a hard rubber on the backhand side it gets pretty hard to handle. A hard, tacky rubber on the forehand side suits it really well — you can produce those nasty tacky-rubber shots as well as powerful drives that only a hard rubber can give.

      If you're using a lighter 7-ply blade like the Swat and want to hit the ball with more power, this is a great recommendation.

      Aru (Experience: 4〜5 years) Nice

      Player reviews

      Before this I was using the Wa no Kiwami, but the swing felt heavy, so my coach gave me this blade instead.
      Now that it's lighter, my footwork has gotten better too,
      and it takes spin decently. I've got some kind of Mark V rubber on it.
      The speed is amazing too — you'll get it once you try it. The control is excellent, you can hit exactly where you want ("everyone's different though").
      The sound is great too, a really nice sound.
