This blade has some really extreme characteristics, honestly. My first impression was that it felt kind of cheap, like a toy — no sense of quality at all (lol).
The handle is hollow, and the blade itself is made of a soft wood.
You can really feel the concept behind it: keep it light and suppress the bounce. It's the kind of blade where even a beginner can tell how much performance changes depending on what you put on it, even with the same rubber. It's easy to get spin and it holds back hard hits — this really is "the chopper's blade" in one sentence. If you're aiming to be a grinding, hang-in-there type of chopper, I think this blade is great.
That said, I personally can't get into the feel on contact (it's kind of a dull "poko-poko" feeling).Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Soft

I've finally made my Tenergy debut (^-^) — or rather, everyone around me kept going on about Tenergy so much that I wanted to try it, and this was my first Tenergy purchase! On Butterfly's website it was listed as the Tenergy recommended for choppers, so I picked the 80! As for my impressions, honestly, it doesn't feel new. Though that might be because I set my own expectations too high.
The feel is like Rasant Power Grip and Grip mixed together, plus better stability and control, and the serves have a lot of bite. Attacking feels stable and satisfying, but for chopping I think Power Grip is more stable. Under normal circumstances I'd be very happy, but as I said, I built up my expectations too much, so I'm a bit conflicted. I guess it comes down to the price... I'll take good care of it and use it for a long time.
Pushes are scary (a common chopper thing).Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Hard

Coming back to table tennis after a 25-year break, I was browsing blades at a shop and found that the blade I used back then had become a whole series, so I bought it out of nostalgia. It's been my good partner ever since. The butterfly logo has gotten a lot more stylish - really makes you feel the times have changed, lol.
Back in the day I remember the blade often breaking from hitting the table, but
I'm surprised at how tough modern blades are.
It's built for chopping, so it feels a bit heavy and the feel is on the hard side.
It has a lot of bounce, so you can go for a one-shot attack! But you do need to be careful when chopping.
Still, I think my top recommendation is honestly just how cool the handle design looks!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little hard

The strength of this rubber is how well the topsheet grips the ball. It generates a ton of spin on serves, topspin drives, and chops. You can even hit a push as sharp and fast as an arrow. That really becomes a weapon. On the other hand, it's also easily affected by the opponent's spin, so you need to be careful. Since the rubber is hard, smashes come out fast. The chop also has a nice low trajectory, but it's really heavy! That's what lets you produce heavy shots, but every time I practiced my arm, shoulder, and neck would start hurting, so I sadly had to give it up. If you're the type who swings hard and fast, be careful.

My first impression was that it stops the ball really well, and the feel is light.
You can't expect much spin generation of your own on chops, but it's stable, and if you use the opponent's own spin, you can get a lot of bite on it - that's the nature of long pips. Because of that there's a wide range of variation,
and opponents often get confused by their own spin coming back at them and end up missing.
The pips feel hard, which makes both attacking and receiving pretty easy, but pushes tend to float and don't get any bite at all. If you can work around that, it'll be a great partner for you. Lastly, this rubber has a lot of shine to it. Before matches, opponents often complain, "Did you put something on that?" (lol)Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard
