KTL (LKT) 168

This blade surprised me I couldn´t believe that it had so good properties. It has very good speed & very good control, dwell time is perfect so drives & loops are powerfull and kicks away from the blade with amazing speed and control, you decide speed and spin. It works vey good for smasches also and serves I thing the combination of wood and arylate-carbon give this blade the fast speed and dwell time. Usually I don´t add reviews this is my first but I did it because I think this blade is unknown for most of the table tennis players. I have played with about 20 different blades, Stiga Hybrid stiga Optimum sync & carbo, Galaxy Carbokev K-5. LKT Willpower, America hinoki (3 blades), Butterfly Oh sang eun etc.... I played with LKT willpower before I bought LKT 168 KT King, willpower is also a good blade but is much stiffer/ harder and are moore difficult to play with compared to LKT 168 KT King. Willpower is also slower and hasn´t that good control. I use Tenergy 64 2.1 on FH and Stiga Boost TS 2.0 on bh, I think many other rubbers can play well with LKT 168 KT King, sticky china rubbers, gambler outlaw, and all the european rubbers. Presports takes $38 and it´s a very good price for such a excellent blade. My advice is TRY THIS BLADE!!!!!!

Very good blade for offensive players. Nice speed, control is awesome. I use it with DHS Skyline tg 2 Neo on both sides. It is awesome in offensive shots and loops, chops are not bad, serves are nice. It is the best blade, which I have played.

This blade is supposed to be a BTY Viscaria clone, as the material and construction are almost the same. To my surprise, it feels more like an all-round blade, with lots of flexibility. My rubbers are Bomb Tensa FH, LKT Pro-XT BH. The overall weight is light, and the blade itself is thin (5.8mm), which I l like. Satisfied with the great control and flex of this blade. The only drawback to me is chopping is hard, usually a little high. And I am having difficulties in finding a proper rubber for my forehand - tried a few, but mostly a little soft for this blade. According to some European guys, this blade has great resemblance to BTY Viscaria, in terms of speed, flex and touch. Great value for money. Update: I was a little disappointed as this blade feels soft, but after trying some other ALC blades (which are all much harder), I realized that being soft has advantages - it's much easier to find a matching rubber on the market, as most of the rubbers are above 39 degree, which is stiff for a harder blade. So my conclusion is this blade needs medium or medium hard rubbers.

This is a clone version of the Bty, Viscaria/Taksim series of blades. The quality of course is not near as good as Butterfly. with the wood chips come off when you change rubbers. Overall is just an average quality blade. Price is OK.

It is a very good blade for an attack style game. LKT 168 makes you to attack every time, because there is its place. 2 weeks later: Very good blade for me. It is not too much hard, not high trajectory, good control.
