It's perfect thickness and weight for my game.  I will let you all know about the performance later.

After 2 weeks playing with these blade, I can give a good review on this "Violence Vis."

First impression:  As you all can see, these blades look really nice.  After I applied some water-based sealer on the blades and handles.  They look even better (sorry, I am too lazy to take pictures).  Also, the handles are very comfortable to hold.  It feels exactly like the Clipper CR ST, and I love the Cliiper CR ST.  They are the best in my opinion.

Bounce test without rubbers:  When I bounced the ball without the rubbers, it doesn't have the speed that I expected.  I worried.  That's all for this.

Bounce test with the rubbers:  When I bounced the ball with the rubbers (short pips on the backhand and inverted on the forehand), it feels better.  However, it doesn't feel fast at all.  I worried

First practice session:  I took it to my first practice session.  After I drive the ball twice, my concerns went away.  This is the monster I have been trying to create for my game.  If you play short pips on one side and inverted on the other side, then you have this one problem.  Are you ready?  You can't find a blade that give you the speed for your pips, but give you the power and control for your inverted.  This is a common problem.  It is difficult to find a blade that gives you the balance game for both sides.  So, what do you do?  You create the "Violence Vis" like I did.

Violence Vis ST vs. Clipper CR ST:  Of course, the Violence Vis is faster than the Clipper CR by at least 15%.  So, did the speed destroy the control?  No, it didn't.  It's faster than Clipper CR, but to me, the control is almost the same for my forehand with inverted rubber.  For the backhand with short pips, the Clipper CR has more control for blocking.  If you play with short pips, you know this issue I am about the tell you.  For passive blocking, it doesn't matter what blade you use.  However, for active (counter) blocking, it is good that you have a solid blade to punch the ball back.  This Violence Vis has this fast gear to destroy the topspin and punch through the opponent.   What about forehand loops/smashes?  Again, Clipper CR has that control near the table.  It can places the ball well.  Because the Violence Vis is faster, I had to learn and adjust a little, but within the first 15 minutes, it feels the same as the Clipper CR (this experience will vary depending on your level).  For mid-distance and far away from the table, the Violence Vis wins hands down.  It's not even a contest.  I could counter-looping effortless.  Last but not least, some of you may know me and my game.  I am forehand/backhand smasher.  I am not a looper.  So, if a blade can't smash well, I don't care how much that blade cost, I just don't care for it.  What about the Violence Vis?  It smashes well.  It reminds of the Butterfly Keyshot in the 38mm ball era.

Violence Vis ST vs. Michael Maze ST:  Before I do the comparison between these two, I will tell you this.  I use Michael Maze exclusively since the ITTF changed the ball from celluloid to plastic.  Why?  It has everything that I need; however, I always feel that I need more speed to play off the table (i.e. mid-distance).  For passive blocks, I don't really see a big difference between these two blades.  In fact, I prefer the Maze.  It seems to have that consistency (maybe, I am used to this blade).  With more practice with the Violence Vis, I may be able to have the same consistency that I do with the Maze.  For active (counter) blocking, again, the Violence Vis wins.  It has that speed advantage over the Maze.  Sometimes, we need that 2% speed to get the ball over the net.  In this case, it has about 10% more speed on the backhand.  For forehand loop near-the-table, the Maze feels better.  The Violence Vis struggles a little bit.  But, let's think about this a little bit.  I am not a looper .  I am a smasher.  I don't care how it loops.  At my level, I know how to spin the first one on the table.  I only spin the first ball on the table and smash the next one coming over on my side.  So, the Violence Vis is perfect for my game.  For mid-distance counter-looping, again, the Violence Vis shines.  Maze is not bad, but its lack of power can hurt you a little because your opponent can easily block the ball back.
