Tommy, did you specify how big the signature should be ? It has to be small, otherwise there will be no space for the next person to sign.

hi all!

i should be able to send the kc to GenomicsKnigh by the end of the week. i only get to play on weekends and i wasn't able to try it on friday because of really pressing schoolwork deadlines T_T  i am really sorry for the delay this might have caused

the kc had a really nice finish though, never saw such a shiny surface on a sealed blade. but then again, i never really get to see that many sealed blades.. however the sleek sealing makes me wonder what effects it might have had on the blade's properties

as suggested by hookshot, i tried to bounce the ball on the bare blade and i found exactly the same thing: a huge difference from the center to the edge.  bouncing the ball on the blade alone can tell that it really is a fast blade; however the ball dies almost instantly once you stray from the small sweet spot

again, sorry for the delay; i will post more reviews and pictures when i have completed my evaluation

thanks!!

So where are the new and improved pics, guys?

I guess I missed my chance to get in the queue at a proper time seeing as how the blade is leaving my Boston neighborhood... well, till next time then.

masterbuten: please play with the KC before sending. We can wait a few more days.
The Nam: You're #6 and we're on #3. You should have it within a month. Are you okay with shipping to UK? I had to make some adjustments for an injured member.
Jim T: I'll add you to the list for the return to the USA.
Size of Sig: Use Hookshot's example as a rough guide.

Message from Tommyzai;
     "Although I am on extended vacation from this Forum, I will stay connected to my Kreanga buddies and enjoy the extraordinary journey with you all. It is my hope I will get the blade back months from now, in time for me to bring to China whereby I will have at least one of the top ten players in the world sign the legendary KC. I am very proud of us all for doing this. I hope you are enjoying the journey as much as me. If you like to get in touch with me, please PM me. I can give you my personel E-Mail via PM. Please continue to coordinate with the next on the list amd remember to enjoy playing, sign it, take a pic with it and review.
     Bon Voyage!!
                          Tommyzai".

It will be very cool if this blade is signed by one of top 10 world class players.  Thumbs%20Up

I just got the blade yesterday from masterbuten and I will glue it up and try it for next few days.  So it looks like wawaicetea123 is next stop in the queue.  wawaicetea123, can you PM me your mailing address so I can send the blade your way sometime next week?

It looks wawaicetea123 is not interested in trying out Tommy's modified KC, as I haven't heard back from him.  Therefore I will pass it on to the next person on the list which is T h e N A M, so we can keep the ball rolling.

Hey guys I will be training in Hong Kong for 3 months, so when theman has finished trying it and I still haven't returned, feel free to by-pass me to keep the journey as smooth as possible.

Yes, I know I have been very lucky to be able to get some lessons from such great players and coaches (especially as I am an average player myself !!!).

Tommy,

any chance you will at some point start another quest with some other good OFF+ blade? I've been dying to try some but they are all so darn expensive... You could do a quick one, for the US-48 only, for example... just an idea.

Jim, if the KC journey is successful I would definitely consider letting an Acoustic, Violin, Schlager, or Gergely-21 go for a ride!!!

Didn't hear anything from wawaicetea123, so the blade will go to T h e N A M now.  I am planning to mail it out first thing Monday morning.  I will put up the pictures and my review next week.  Still trying to digest all that food I ate...
