    Posted: 12/14/2017 at 5:32pm
Has anyone tried converting a hollow-handled blade into solid handle? I guess the most direct way would be find the hollow space and fill it. Yesterday I happen to put my Ebenholz V and Virtuoso+ together, and an idea struck me that maybe I can simply stick a metal tag at the end of my Ebenholz blade and make it 'feel' like a solid handle (at least weight-distribution-wise). I searched Amazon and found quite a few tags that can fit to a Stiga handle end, such as:
or

I just ordered a set of tags from Amazon and it will arrive this Saturday. I will post here how it works. If anyone else has tried this please comment how it worked for you!

best thing to do is pop one half of the handle off and fill it with something, look up der echte beast mod on table tennis daily.
if you don't want wait just use expandable foam.
its a problem with a lot of stiga blades

Der Echte does this routinely since he likes blades over 100g.

Or you can send your blade to Charlie and get a custom handle with heavy wood like teak/walnut/ purple heart etc
