Review of Nexy Kim Jung HoonI've arrived at at the KJH after a long search for a blade. I grew up with playing 5 ply all-wood blades but have changed to composite blades in recent years to find a larger sweet spot and also some extra speed for the bigger 40mm balls, especially now plastic.
The KJH plays extremely nice. It has a heft (mine is 91g) and a solidity to it that is hard to describe. The blade is very linear so you don't get surprises when you hit a soft or a hard shot. The blade behaves very much the same.
I would put the KJH at the very upper end of OFF- or at the lower end of OFF (probably the latter) in terms of speed, but because of the above, you never have the feeling that you can't control the blade.

Review of Xiom Vega ProObviously all reviews are somewhat subjective. This blade to me is the holy grail. I've tried them all. SZLC, ZLC, ALC, Barwell Fleet, Acoustic Carbon, Dima Carbon - all of them faded in comparison. The Vega Pro has a unique combination of a huge sweet-spot (common in super composites), a speed characteristic that is enough for the 40mm ball without being completely bonkers and a level of control that I did not think was possible in a blade with these offensive characteristics. The only annoying aspect is the less-than-perfect finish. Some sharp'ish edges that need to be taken off with a grinder or sandpaper. Besides that, if you are a decent player, end your search here and get it. Fantastic price-to-performance ratio as well.
