Has anyone tried the blade, is it any good. I have been considering buying it for awhile. It is a very popular blade among the Japanese players as Kenji Matsudaira uses it, and Seiya Kishikawa just switched from the TBS to it.

I've tried the SK7 Alpha, that blade is a lot of fun. It's not light but it's quality. Hard woody feel to it |

He used the Mitamura pro for awhile, with sriver and el. Then he switched to the timo boll spirit as you can cleraly see from a pic of him in febuary at ittf. Then very recently bty.co.jp updated their players list saying that he changed to SK7, and he also changed his rubbers to bryce speed and bryce speed fx. Though I have not been able to confirm this since their have been no recent pics of him, or videos.

If he did make the switch it'll be obvious, the design on that blade is hard to miss.

There are three versions, SK7- blue, SK7 alpha- red, and SK7 light- baige. I've only seen the blue one used by the pros thoguh.

Few weeks ago I was shown by a shop owner the SK-7. He said that it's getting popular lately. I only looked at it and didn't care much because it's a 7 ply all-wood, if I am not wrong. I didn't bounce ball with it but I can tell you that it is a good quality wood blade from the point of craftmanship. If I visit the store again I will look at it more.

this sk7, is pretty good, has a lot of control , not much speed (off). Its very similar to peter korbel, with a harder bounce, |
