My new toy. I have a very pleasant experience with this brand of racket last time. I look forward to sharing it again---- http://ww3.ping-pong.tw/product_info.php?cPath=24_173&products_id=5471&language=en
First of all, I'm no more than intermediate player but very enthusiastic about the game who started to learn to play more properly in my late 40th. I played with few wooden blades and for a while wanted to try kiso hinoki. The most famous is Darker but it's cost prohibitive. I did some research and found PP Moby which cost 2.5 times less but quality is exceptional. This is one beautiful blade! Really nice feel and better control. I adapted to it fast. My style is more hitting then brushing and this blade is great for my style (but I'm sure for better players it will work as well). The only small negative is the weight, it's heavy blade, mine is 93.2g but it's expected as it's only one ply solid wood and after playing a little bit I really don't notice the extra weight anymore. I can give very dissent spin on my serves and returns. Blade is good at short game as well as away from the table. Also it can be really fast (OFF at least). The owner, Coach Tony, was very helpful and did my blade with straight handle instead of FL as they normally do, handle I got is very comfortable. Blade is a little head heavy but still easy to handle. I paired it with Joola Dynaryz AGR (FH) and ACC(BH) and it works very well (they also sell these rubbers at much better price then in the US). Overall, this blade is a keeper! I would highly recommend this blade: quality is exceptional and price is reasonable.

I would choose this one over darker 90; for the money this one is much better value; amazing blade. If you like to topspin - superb blade. This is the blade. One ply Japanese Kiso Hinoki is definetely one of the best feeling blades.
I bought a very exquisite racket. As soon as I received it, I couldn't resist testing it out. I was surprised by the high quality of Taiwanese products. The performance of this racket is almost identical to my previous Butterfly Kiso Hinoki racket from Japan. I highly recommend it to fellow table tennis players. -------- https://www.ping-pong.tw/en
