    User review

    I never imagined there could be such a great blade.
    I wanted it to get more publicity, so I'm posting this review.

    The description reads like it's a wood-style blade, but it flies plenty well enough even from mid-distance or further back.
    On top of that, the ball-holding is good, and I was able to hit some really powerful shots.
    Also, unlike inner-type blades, it doesn't suddenly reveal that "material" feel partway through when you sink the ball in — the surface layer feels like hard wood.
    The feel is less of a hollow "poko-poko" type and more like a hard plywood, though that might depend on how you hit it...

    Also, true to the "RE" naming, the grip and lightness are noticeable at a level you can really feel. The design looks great too.
    As expected of the model used by Oshima — this is a blade I personally hope gets more recognition.

    My first impression was a hard rubber that didn't grab much spin but flew reasonably well.
    But after using it repeatedly, my impression changed completely and I came to think it's a fantastic rubber.

    Like some other tacky rubbers, on day one the sheet felt overly tacky and too stiff, so the feel was off and the ball didn't sink into the sponge well.
    But as you break it in, the sheet starts to grip the ball properly, giving you both that characteristic tacky-rubber variation and good bounce.
    If you focus on the feel of really sinking the ball into the sheet and sponge when you hit, you can produce both powerful shots and high-quality, spinny connecting balls.

    I think this is a rubber that transforms with careful storage and regular maintenance, so I'd recommend breaking it in for about a month rather than giving up on it after the first day. (Things like managing humidity or warming the rubber with a hand warmer to soften it up.)
    Especially recommended for the backhand.

    Compared to Tenergy it feels harder and more manual, but when you hit hard, the ball comes out sharp.
    The feel is close to MX-D, but this one is characterized above all by being light, around 47g after cutting to max thickness.
    The trajectory is on the low side but the ball doesn't drop, and you can hit sharp, spinny, fast balls with good stability.
    Paired with an outer blade, I'd recommend using it on the forehand; on the backhand it feels hard, so you need a solid impact.
    It had a reputation as a close-to-mid-distance rubber, but if you pick the right blade to pair it with, it can put out plenty of power even from away from the table, so I feel it's a rubber that suits a wide range of players.

    Also, I feel like inner blade + QQ is such a solid combo that it might catch on going forward.
    Above all, I think the reasonable price and light weight are trends at the intermediate level, so I expect to see this rubber around more in the future.

    User review

    First, my conclusion: I felt this is an outer blade with a harder feel on contact and different control characteristics compared to Tamas's ALC.

    What stands out is the feel on contact.
    ALC's characteristic feel is a soft "poshu" or "mosa" sound — or, to put it less kindly, a muffled feel.
    The MK Carbon had a hard, crisp "kachi" or "paki" feel on contact.
    If anything, the feel leans closer to ZLC, but it feels like the sensation on contact resonates all the way up to your hand.
    The ball-holding feel is also distinctive, and I felt it holds the ball as well as, or even better than, ALC.

    I also felt it has its own character in terms of distance and control.
    It does fly a good distance, but thanks to the gripping feel, spin brings the ball back down onto the table.
    Compared to ZLC, it doesn't fly quite as far, but I think the control is better.
    Also, compared to ALC, I felt spin was easier to generate, so drives and similar shots landed on the table well and felt easy to control.

    Overall verdict
    — People who aren't fond of ALC's feel but find something as fast-flying as ZLC hard to handle
    — People new to outer blades
    — People who want a blade where they can feel the flex
    — People who want something on the lighter side (average 84g)

    I'd recommend it to people like the above.

    On top of the soft feel, you also get a solid sense of vibration in your hand, and it barely feels like a special-material blade — plus there's a distinct hinoki character.
    That said, the bounce and ball-holding are excellent, so you get solid control while still being able to generate power even from away from the table.

    As for rubber, it seems to work fine with pretty much any combination, though with tacky rubber I did feel it popped up a bit too much and held the ball a bit too long.
    On the flip side, if you want to grip the ball firmly and put a lot of spin on it, I'd recommend tacky rubber.

    The grip is the usual Darker grip, so nothing special there — it felt a little on the thick side.

    Overall, it's well balanced but still has strong bounce, and the feel is genuinely satisfying — a really nice blade.
