Thanks !!  but I contacted him and he uses Dr. Neubauer Firewall Plus Blad.

As much as I would love to take up his sales offer,because of my geographic location it would not make much sense blade + rubbers $150 Shipping $15.00  =$165.00    New $170.00 thanks any how I will place an order for a new one today.

  What blade/rubber are you currently using?  I used Titan for a while it has a strange shape and is thick  but it does everything as advertised  it was just too slow for my game. If you have been playing an off/looping game and just want something better for lp you might be unhappy

 I use to play Off/Off- blades with T05 on both sides  and switched to Titan with Tackifire Drive and Fighter OX since the blade is for close to the table play.  A few things that were difficult to get use to where the shape, thickness (9mm) and the weight as the blade is really light.  The FH was just a bit slow i even tried T05 FX on it but lacked power away from the table.  The BH is very nice for LP or ANTI so no complaints there.  If you really stick to the table  Titan is a very good blade now if you like to get away from the table and loop/chop/block then you might not be satisfied  which is why i switched to Labyrinthos. This is why i said Titan does what it claims to do , it is for pure defenders who play close to the table (i say 2-4 feet) and want a little extra on the FH. I was actually unhappy with Labyrinthos at first since from the description it was for long pips OX but when put on this blade it is way too fast to control so i was upset and listed it for sale but after some thinking i thought why not try Neubauer Anti Special(kind of like illegal non friction pips) with some sponge(1.8) to slow down the BH.  Well that was a great idea as i now really like this blade.  I have T05FX on the FH as i have a more aggressive FH and this blade has plenty of power from any distance and with the Limba/ carbon it loops really nice.  The down side of Labyinthos is the sound as the balsa and carbon is very "pingy"  and if you try OX LP on the BH you will not be happy.  I think ANTI or LP with sponge would work nice.  I told Moon he should give one to Joo as it would fit his game very well.
