any interests in these CPens

these are the blades that I have played with at least 6+ months. The number showed the sequence I played with them.  I play two sided pips-in rubber and do reverse backhand looping hitting. All these blades weight between low 80s to high 80s.

 

1, sword (世奥德）sword king 2001 version， 6mm，fast and stiff but can generate amazing spin

2. sanWei, carbon King, 10 layers of wood + 9 layers of carbon. 6mm. Amazing looping blade. noticeble catapult effect when looping and blocking. woody feeling in short balls. short comings: feedback in hitting isn't crisp clear

3. YEO JATTA version. 82g.

4. Lialox 86 or 87g. good for both looping and hitting. excels at blocking. not spinny as sanwei or YEO but better in hitting and blocking

 

I moved to cc5/7 and not likely to play with them again (but not in a hurry to dump them either just in case). so if you are interested in trying any of them out, let me know and we will go from there. 50% to 65% of the new price is probably a fair price?

 

1. sword king 2001， 剑中王。condition, fair. some dings on the edge. $25 shipped to canada, $28 shipped to US

2. sanwei 碳中王。I think this blade weights 87g (can't remember exactly and I don't have a scale). one noticible ding on the edge and one small ding. $45 to canada $48 to US.

All these blades are not sealed but sanded as can be seen from the pic. I should also mention that I also sand the handle where the thumb is as seen in the first picture. I found this facilitates reverse backhand penhold loop. sword king was not sanded this way as I moved to other blades when I found out this sanding technique.

 

preference given to buyer who buys more than one blades and/or with rubber purchase, i.e., $20 for TG3 neo 39 degree.

 

only sword king left.

it would be an armor with regular carbon layers but this blade isn't hard at all. It is probably the best looping blade among the 4 on par with YEO if not better. After the number 1 blade, i.e., sword king, I used stiga carbo 7.6 for quite a while before changing to sanwei (No.2). Sanwei carbon king allows me to play more aggressively without committing unforced errors. The only reason that I later changed to Lialox was that lialox was more balanced in looping and hitting.

 

p.s., before switching to sword king, I used bty primorac carbon. The reason for switching to sword king was for better short ball touch/control and RPB. As expected bty prmorac carbon is better in blocking because of its thickness.
