Looks like a Maze wrapped up, can't tell the rubbers.

looks like a maze with a killerspin logo stuck in the handle according to that video (1.02)

The rubbers almost look like a formula donic. No idea really.

Yes, I am pretty sure of that. The rubbers are what I am trying to find out now. They are pretty clear in Rob's picture...but would only be recognized by users of the same rubber.

Looks more like Keyshot or  the old Primo Powerfeeling blade, which was a fantastic blade. Shame they don't make it anymore.

I personally think it looks more like Old keyshot with straight handle, I have an old keyshot flare, I checked it, the colours of the stripes and the handle looks 99.9% the same. where the primo powerfeeling and the Maze have different colours handle. Somehow, the logo on handle looks like Killerspin! No doubt, Filimons is sponsored by killerspin. The rubbers he uses are Killerspin Forza 4Z. (I read it from one of the site). May be I wrong.

Yes, the logo is Killerspin, he put that in so that his sponsor wouldn't know he was using a different company's blade.

When i first saw teh vid a few weeks ago i thought it's an old Samsonov Alpha! Now i think it looks more like a primo powerfeeling...


But i'm not sure (and don't really care...Tongue)!

The red is definitely a JOOLA rubber, and I think I can make out Mambo, but not sure whether H, C, or GP

I'm not sure its a maze for one reason, the Maze has two thick blue lines, and in between it is the same color of the rest of the blade. This blade looks like it has tan in between the lines, but I may be wrong~

I'm guessing you didn't compensate for the shadow that his fingers are putting on the handle

Actually, the Mazunov is more red, but I do not see any carbon in that pic, so it might not be a a Maze.

I'm quite sure the blade is Maze, and the FH is Mambo H, according to Schlager. It is either Mambo H or C

I'm 100% sure it's a Mambo H, no doubt in my mind!
 
I have used about 20 sheets of it and know the look of it. The sponge is pinkish, Mambo C has a yellow sponge..

I think the Keyshot handle is darker, and I don't see the orange in between stripes on the Filimon pic.

Look at the video Robert added. His blade had been used for a while, and the orange part had almost disappeared.

Now we got to find out the BH rubber. It probably isn't the same Mambo H, the sponge colors look pretty different.
