Review of Andro Kinetic Supreme OFFNice looking blade, excellent finishes. Used it for 6 months...Good for close to the table game, but lacks power from mid distanse and further away from the table. Roxon450 MAX (forehand) and Platin Soft MAX backhand were the best matching this blade rubbers for me.

Review of Andro Treiber ZVery nice, very consistent OFF blade. Not extremely fast, but very good and solid on any offensive strokes. it's quite thick therefore - perfect in blocking. I've rated it high in 'control' because it is very predictable and gives you a good feedback. Currently my competition's blade with Rasant Grip rubbers (2.1mm FH and 1.9mm BH)

Review of Stiga Tube Carbo WRBMay be its just my blade, I bought it, reading all good reviews, but it is not what I was hoping for... It's fast, but with very poor feadback. It is hard for me to find matching rubbers for this blade, only softer rubbers like Donic coppa X3, T64, Tibhar Speed, or tacky rubbers are OK, still searching...

Review of Stiga Tube Aluminium WRBWas searching for a fast blade, and people advised me to check Stiga blades... din't like it, not enaugh speed with poor control. This blade end up having medium pimples on it for the occasian hit during training.

Review of Tibhar Stratus Power WoodThis is OFF or-OFF blade, really good for looping, and actually pretty much in everything, in every component of the game... close or far away from the table. I play with Rasant and Sigma Euro and this blade seems gets the best from both rubbers, it is definitely the best blade I've ever had...

Review of Xiom Zetro QuadLovely blade, very good craftsmanship. Using it for the last 4 month with RASANT (1.9mm) and SIGMA Europe1 (2.0mm). Plays well on slow shots not too bouncy. Slow spiny loops are easy to do, blocking is fantastic, and on the hard strokes second layer of carbon is notice-able and gives a different sound and the second gear, that you need to be aware of.

Review of Yinhe Carbokev K-4K-4 is OK, but nothing special, and a bit too slow for the agressive play. Very good dwell time due to the soft outer layer. Best matching rubbers for me for this blade were XIOM OmegaVI Europe max (forehand) and ACUDA-2 max (backhand). Roxon500 2mm and Roxon450 MAX were good on forehand as well.

Review of Yinhe T-8Fast blade with a good control, good for block, smash, topspin and push. Really nice blade, ordered another one. mine is much thinner though 6.1-6.2mm not 6.8 as indicated in description. This blade is very good with many different rubbers, therefore suit different stiles from ALL to OFF+. Update: have to lower down the overall rating (initial control was 9 and overall 9.5), after getting the second blade... this time its 6.8mm in thickness, heavier, and plays completely different to one that I have. Speed is there, may be, even faster, but no much feeling, meaning hard to control with not much feedback. So not much consistency in blades production... need to give an average rating between the two.

Review of Yinhe T-11Excellent blade with very good control, played with it for two seasons, very light 70g. Some people in my club did not like it due to extra spring effect from balsa thick core. Perfect with soft rubbers like Donic Platin X1, X2, Donic Silver X3, Andro Hexer+. Excels in close to the table up to mid distance, harder to finish the point if further away. It is not expensive blade, but consistency across blades not too good... same as with T-8... I have two and they are different, one is harder and has handle with harder wood and plays more direct with very low trajectory, its OK when you are playing close to the table. As 'cherry' mentioned in the review his blade waits 87g and average 71g... my which I like waits 71g, but you can't expect blades 87g and 71g to play identically... overall set up gets havier as well...

Review of Yinhe N-9I ordered this blade based on the rating from this site, but nothing similar to what I read... It vibrates after each shot like fish in your hand, it is hard and quite fast but impossible to play with. May be I wasn't lucky, but I found it this way with cheep blades... I had to order 3 blades (T-11) to find one that plays like people say...
