Well, I am a C-pen holder.

And I am ALL offensive. I want to new set-up from my previous, which i bought off Colestt.
So I've had a pretty decent set up for a while. I am a very exp. player and can handle a fast blade.

but I have no clue where to start looking, and not that much money to spend (nothing over $50) Can someone help an exp. player find a good all offensive set up?

Also, question, could you have a fast blade an a fast rubber, or would that be out of control?

I would recommend Violin C-pen, but the price is not appropriate for your budget and I have not tried too many blades, so I can only advise you to contact Cole again and ask for his recommendation. He is very helpful.

a cheap Clipper Cpen (under 40.00 USD) would be just fine 4 u.

Could you provide some information on what you are currently using?  I think it will help the forum members provide better advice. 

if you are in the US; Paddle palace has a Stiga Tube Aluminum Penhold for $47.95 (looking at C-Pens that are listed as in stock) but if you are moving up from a All/All+ blade it may not be the best bet.

The Stiga Clipper is usually a popular choice.  Of you can try its cheaper substitute the Galaxy/YinHe M6 at colestt.  (or T2 if you want a carbon blade)

[Added]  Just noticed that TTpioneers has the Yasaka Ma Lin Soft Carbon and Gaiten Carbon Cpen in your price range. (They have a FBP April special 25% off this month that brings the blades down to within your budget range.)  Yasaka makes very good Cpens.

Nittaku Septear CPen would be a great blade within your budget.
