Finally it arrived!!!











Thickness: just a little over 9 I think. Couldn't find my ruler so I measure it with my Swiss-knife's ruler.
Compact head size. Very thick handle. Thickest handle out of all my blades.
Weight: 90.75g

I had my cousin bought it for me at Singapore. There was a thread about a month ago about this. I was asking whether it's a good buy. I finally bought it and it's finally here..... Tongue

Hahaha... I'm trying to stick with my plan, finishing up the reviews for the XIOM blades... But it's a BIG temptation...

I had put it aside in the vacuum box inside a locked shelf. Out of sight out of mind... Hopefully... Until I'm done with the rest of the XIOM blades.... TongueTongueTongue

Kingdom. If you look at the previous thread I mentioned earlier, you'll find more info.

Still waiting for Zeta to be available locally. I try not to buy it until I finish trying the XIOM blades though. I don't want to add another factor into the reviews. I try to stick with the same rubbers for all of them.

So, I try to hold out on Zeta until mid/end of next month.

Also, I'll be trying the same rubbers for the 1 ply as well.

And no I didn't misspell the topic. Owner of Kokutaku blades will know.

Take a look at the photo below and see if you get it:

Where is exactly this Kingdom store located in Singapore? What TT products are they carry besides Kokutaku?
Do they have a website?

Don't know where exactly. You could see the address on do google. It will show you the map. Very easy to locate with the map. I told my cousin where to go using the map.

But I don't think they do online transaction. They might now. I don't know.

rok: That is a real masteApiece alrightBig%20smile  The grain are so profound and beautiful. Do give us a full and comprehensive review when you had a chance to play with it.
 
dragon kid: Did you have any success emailling them? I tried last time but that email address on their website don't workShocked  By the way, if you find a Kokutaku with the correct spelling for 'masterpiece', it is probably a fake. How ironicLOL

It's ok asr... Smile

Several people already indicated that the email doesn't work for the kingdom. Best to call them if there's something you like.

Review is going to take a few weeks. Have to wait patiently in line after the Aria, Fuga and Jazz. I was supposed to be finished with Aria, but got sidetracked with the Michael Maze my friend has for sell. I had to give it a try before it's sold. Who knows I might like it... Wink

@rokphish

You should move 3008 ahead of Fuga and Jazz.  I am sure a lot of us are eager to read your review of 3008 Wink

I'm tempted to do so. But I heard from Peter that his 3008 splintered so I might need to varnish it...

I'll finish with Aria first for sure because I'm already in the middle of it (got sidetracked by Maze for few playing sessions).

So, I'll be playing with 3008 next week...
