(Sorry for my terrible English, I'm from Hong Kong!)

After digging through my room I found 6 old blades, only 2 of them seem to be "brand-name ones", or at least less crappy than other 4.

Here's the list:

2 "CARADE" brand Chinese crappy blades (I think it cost me 20 RMB few years back)
2 "Giant Dragon Attack Style" blade (recreational product I believe"
1 TSP "Giant" (recreational...I think)
1 Double Happiness PF4

I actually thought only the TSP was a good one (because the "Double Happiness" brand sounds cheapy for me, it's traditional Chinese saying "雙囍" or "雙喜" as many Chinese made products love to use it as brand names)

However after some Google work I couldn't find much information on that TSP, and then I spotted "Double Happiness" brand on some other website, and then I did some research on the DHS PF4.

DHS PF4s seem to have few different versions, 008..016..032. I saw some photos showing the model number was printed (or engraved?) at the end of the handle, but mine doesn't have any number, only PF4 on the handle and PF4 on the rubber.

Can anyone give me more information on this blade/bat/racket/board?
Here are some photos.


Here's a picture of the TSP:

About the PF-4... The type probably depends on the number of plies. I think 08 was 7 plies, 032 was 6 plies. If you purchased it with the rubber already on it then you probably have a lower quality paddle.

Then it probably is an 032. I used to have one and really liked it (27 years ago). If it is an 032 then you have a nice paddle.
