People say it's similar to Butterfly's Viscaria, and I'd agree. The feel is on the hard side, but it still grips the ball well — though that's only true for outer-carbon blades like this. Compared to inner-ply blades it's definitely harder and doesn't hold the ball as much. It's really a blade for advanced players. The good points are that it's relatively light, so you can still swing it even with spin-oriented tension rubbers on both sides, and it's about 10,000 yen cheaper than the Viscaria, so it's a reasonable compromise.

A wonderful blade
The balance between chopping and attacking really lives up to the Matsushita Koji nameThat said,
comparing it to the Matsushita Pro Model that Butterfly used to make, I feel it falls a bit short.
This blade is easier to attack with, but it doesn't give you that feeling that every chopped ball is going to land.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

It pairs really well with short pips.
It's an easy blade to hit with, and it doesn't feel like a 7-ply at all in terms of usability.
The downside is that it's a bit heavy. Mine weighs 85g, so putting inverted rubber on both sides would be tough, I think.
That said, whatever inverted rubber you put on it grips well, so if you use a lighter rubber on the other side, it might just work out...The grip is thinner than average, so opinions will probably be divided on it.
The blade face is average-sized and easy to switch directions with.
I'd recommend it for players who like to shake up their opponent with short shots rather than fight it out with topspin drives.If I remember correctly, this used to sell for 5,800 yen.
At that old price it was an easy blade to recommend to beginners as a classic short-pips option, but...Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I think of this as a more manageable version of the Timo Boll ALC
As far as carbon blades go, it's in the pretty easy-to-use categoryIf you like the feel of ALC blades but find them too fast to control, I think this would be good for you

This one really flies.
It's honestly at a level that makes you doubt it's a 5-ply.Even just forehand hitting, it flies a lot.
Topspin drives arc up quite a bit.
If you're not a pretty serious player, it's tough to handle.The backhand side is stable thanks to the higher arc, but it feels unsuited to modern backhand techniques.
The blade face is large, so it ends up fairly heavy.
That said, blocking is stable because of it.I'd only recommend this for advanced players who are particular about equipment, or people who just want it for their collection — I wouldn't recommend it for regular use.
