SDC Handmade Blades

Do you like Spin? Then this blade is not for you... This is the stiffest and fastest 5 ply blade I've ever made!

Typical inner fiber construction using Izanas-Carbon fiber. A little more oomph, stability and crisper feeling than ALC, very close performance to ZLC.

Just wanted to make something fun and colorful, but still with some nice offensive capabilities. It's on the stiff side, but with a nice "holding" sensation, so not far from that all wood Vis equivalent many people desire. The handle is narrower than usual but thick, so it fills the hand pretty well.

Thank you. I would like to publish some videos, but I simply don't have the time... 

I felt like doing something fancy for my 800th blade, so I went for the golden look with this one. I've used Olive wood on handles many times, but never on a top ply. It's almost as heavy and hard as Ebony, similar to Rosewood, yet the blade does not feel hard at all. You get a more direct trajectory and speed than with your typical inner ZLC blade, but this also means it will be a little harder to control.

Thanks!

Visually there are things you can't do with a plastic badge, and vice-versa, so each one has their use, at least for me...

I've made this combi blade thinking of a push-blocking style of play, but to be honest you can also use it in a double offensive setup with a slower side. On the Ayous side I've used unidirectional carbon, I've had this fabric for a while but this was my first time using it. Carbon fabric is usually weaved in a crossed pattern, so it has equal mechanical properties in both directions, but this unidirectional carbon only has fibers in one direction, which means it will only provide strength in the direction used. It's also very thin, so most of the blade's natural feeling is preserved. This side is at least OFF-, but there is a clear distinction between sides with the other having a shorter bounce and a less dynamic feeling, so I would probably say ALL/ALL+ speed-wise. The handle is a chunky Anatomic shape, so it's good if you have big hands, but not great for twiddling.

And now the inner fiber version with the Diolen-Carbon fabric. Because the fiber layers have less relative distance between them, you get much less increase in stiffness compared to the outer version, but it's still more than you usually have at this speed range. This helps to control the throw angle, making it not excessively high, which can be a problem for some players with these types of blades. You also get a bigger sweetspot, which gives extra stability, making it more suitable for blocking than common blades in the same category.

The "sabre" handle has a straight half, and a flared half, and feels very natural to hold.
