I actually bought this beauty for a mate, I will ask him to do a review/comparison later on. The frequency response is almost the same as shakehand version at 1485Hz.

80g is a good weight for penhold. The smaller handle shaves a LOT of weight

Thickness is the same. The official dimension is 150x157mm but it gets wider towards the tip so it is more rounded than a shakehand head. If you draw a horizontal line on the bottom of the bold words Arylate-CARBON, the shakehand blade measured 137mm from edge to edge. The CS blade is 140mm. So the shakehand blade looks a little like a cone-head and the CS model looks more like a Buddha's head.LOL

Very nice Hleett, congrats ! 

I too wanted to purchase one, but was told the weights were mostly 80g and below. As I play only one side, it is far too light for me. 

How does the shape play? Do you feel it is faster than normal Cpens which are slightly longer? Could you also compare it to Taksim if possible? 

Thank you!!
