I have the red one. I love the blade. I bought for my 7 y old son to practice. And it helped. Those blades are very stiff and strong, you cant brake them. But here is catch, they are not ittf approved as both side is red. On blue blade both side are blue. On silver one are both silver...But let me tell you this if you buying this blade for your kid and just to hate give money to brake blade every time he took in his or her hand this is the one. My sone before he learnd was hitting table many times. with this one nothing happend to blade. Will learn proper strokes. After I did buy him real one blade. Well this is it...Any ques PM me

don't think they are too expensive cole ely. There are a lot of these for sale on e-bay . . . . approx �15 . . . i dont know what that is is dollars . . . um . . . $18 - $20? Not sure if they are legal or not . . . . are they listed on the ITTF website . . . i know they do rubbers and blades, but not sure about complete bats.

I am willing to sell mine as my son does not play with it any more. I payed $36 with shipping. Will sell this one for $18 including shipping if somebody would like to try.

Cole is right, but I think it's 85% wood. ITTF don't approve any blades, only rubber's, unless I'm mistaken. Doubt that these bats are legal, both due to the material used and the colour thing. To play in tournament one side has to be red and the other black. These blades looks like they have rubbers of the same colour on both sides which would make them illegal. If it isn't rubber, only the blade surface, they would still be illegal as the surface isn't "flat/even".

These pre-mades are ITTF approved they claim. Doesn't the whole paddle go through ITTF approval if it's a pre-made and not just the rubber sheets?
The Killerspin RAD tables are made by Cornilleau, they are top notch quality and I think some consider them the best of the KS tables. |

Blade: Whatever is close
Rubber Sheet: Whatever still has some grip. |

I'd trade for it if it's in half-decent shape. Which one did you get?
