This is a thread from 2011. Is a 7-ply all wood 5.8mm or under still relevant in the age of the plastic ball (post 2014)?

I have a Nittaku Barwell Fleet (thin glass fiber behind the top ply so it's really 7+2) that is 6.1mm and nowadays, this would give the feeling looked after by the author, it is OFF-/OFF at 90g and offers a divine wooden feel without polluting vibrations. A top blade in its category.

Yasaka Gatien Extra 7 is a thin 7-ply (discontinued). I have one (a 100g beast). It’s noticeably thinner than my Clipper WRB.

Another vote for Persson Powerplay. 
In my opinion it´s the best 7-ply blade available. 5.9mm and weights around 82 to 90g, mine was 87g.
It plays almost like a 5-ply blade: a bit of vibration, lots of ball feel, but more power then regular 5 pliers.
it´s much softer than traditional 7-ply blades like Clipper, P700 and Xiom Extrem S.

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your mail.
According to YASAKA, it is 5.5mm now. So our web site is wrong.

Thank you and Best regards,

So is it slower or faster?
hah...u can't figure that 1 out? He just has a typo there, I believe he meant this:
Ultimate is still a little bit slower, softer than Musko and yet faster and more flexible and with more wood feeling than [Virtuoso/Virtuoso+]

You'll love it for sure since it's closer to Virtuoso than Musko.

Donic Persson Powerplay is 5.8mm.. I think.
Stiga Hybrid Wood is not an all wood blade and usually at 95gr these days, but I have one at 83gr but I think that it is thicker than 5,8mm.

that is for a cpen not shakehand the shakehand version is 6.9

Oh, I didn' noticed that. Actually, I have both penhold and shakehand version of this blade, and have just measured it: shakehand version is 6.9 mm, and penhold version is actually 6.1 mm. Why would they make different thicknes for penhold and shakehand? Confused

For reference, I know the Stiga Ebenholz NCT VII (7) is 6.1mm, I tried it and liked it, but it was too thick and heavy, i wish it was around 5.7mm thick.
