What is the most expensive paddle you can possibly create. I think that it would be a custom blade (ZL Carbon) rom BTY which is 31500 yen and then bryce speed on both sides, which would cost about 10000 yen. This all equals 41500 yen which is 376.77USD. What do yo think.

Prashida Kendo is also expensive, although it's not very popular.
the price is more than 2000 HKD

I've never seen one, but I don't think that's always true. They make the donic dotec blades I know. You can buy the exact same blades in prashida makes.They used to have the ones with the adjustable rings, too. They also make some bamboo blades that are nice.

That said, you may feel that the dotec blades are crap too, and you might be right to feel that way. I've never tried one.

That reminds me of an old joke about two upstart businessmen trying to one-up each other. The first one asks the other about his tie and the guy says "yeah, it's a nice one, I paid three grand for it". The first one answers with disgust "you are pathetic. I know a place where you can easily buy it for five!"

Well, the Ma Lin Carbon cost as much as a trip to Vegas, and that is for an old one...

Others then that, the Neubauer special handmade blade is listed here for about 250 USD, along with some rubbers from the same company, listed at almost 100 USD each would make for one expensive paddle.

There really is no limit I guess because you could just put endless amounts of speed glue onto your blades and rubbers, and count that in the price. Plus, with specialized handles and a custom made blades and different sponges and topsheets make it almost impossible to find the most expensive.
