How is the Kong Linghui Special blade compared to Timo Boll Spirit ? Do KLHS have the same "quadratic" ST handle as the TBS ? I'm looking for a blade similar to TBS but with a more "ellipse formed" ST handle.

You should have posted TBS vs KLHS vs Maze as all 3 are very similar to each other :) Viscaria is probably very close too.

i have a FL kls, (i have tryed several tbs's.. they play different ST vs FL IMO) the kls is stiffer, softer feel, lighter (a lot), the only problem is that the inner balsa is made out of small strips wich makes the sweetspot small
 
if u find TBS to flexy give kls a try

The KLHS does not have a balsa core.

I have owned all 3 but personally like the KLHS, though never tried ST, I always use FL.

 

You can prolly fix up the handle with sandpaper if it doesn't feel right.

What are the differences between a straight handle TBS and a flared handle TBS?

I've noticed I play better with the anatomical handle on a Michael Maze, than the straight handle.

what you mean? besides the obvious handle? Well not sure about the TBS

But I have noticed different head shapes from my Iolite in FL and St.

I've had an old pinned badge TBS FL and a new metal insert badged TBS ST. Apart from the handle, they're the same
