you could try galaxy K-5. its a carbon kevlar composite pretty much identical to viscaria. and much cheaper(like 40$)
E: 40 € I meant And sorry the one that is like Viscaria is K-1. K-5 is 1,2mm thicker

Worse blade I've ever tried in 18 years playing table tennis.

This was a great signature until I realised it was overrated.

It's very well made and balanced. It's also not about speed and control, ok there.. but the feeling is awfull and there's no arc. If someone like its feeling, go for it. I hated. Totally different feeling compared to other A/C blades I've tried before (TBS, Maze, Kong Special, TB ALC) and I don't know why.. |

It is good for loopdriving 'through the ball' with H3NeoPro. With enough power you get good arc and speed. But when you do a more careful medium-force loop or counterloop, the arc is less pronounced than with common Vis or TBS. It helps in 3rd ball attacks, helps you to deliver a 'knock-out punch' right over the table, but it doesn`t help you to return low balls, esp. when you are out of position.
I liked T64 more than T05 with it. With 05 it has too high throw to handle. It also plays awfully with tensors, and is overall much harder than any Korbel.

How much faster is this blade compared to a Korbel OFF?
How much fast is a TBS/viscaria compared to the Korbel blade? |

Less than PriC,SchC, Gergely. VL is a notch slower than Viscaria and TBS.
ALC is harder than Korbel, and it has higher top-end speed, which means you can deliver a more powerful loop when you exert your own power. The difference in speed of various other strokes is not so significant, but Korbel is more accurate in half-speed, spin-oriented combination game. ALC blades need power to be applied to each loop to be accurate, and Korbel is a do-it-all blade. |

- I didnt`t like it with DHS NEO rubbers. No good at loopdriving 'through the ball'. My Viscaria was nothing like the special-selected Viscarias which are used by those Chinese national team monsters =))) Possibly ZJK blade is the way, but I din`t even try it.

My Viscaria does great with 729 Transcend and H3 Prov. It's best blade for chinese rubbers I've ever had.
