A pair of "fake twins" with a composition based on a thicker TB Spark, which is basically the same as saying that they are similar to a thinner Moobeam 🙂 Composition: Limba / Kevlar / Ayous / Kiri / Ayous / Kevlar / Limba Weight: 91.7 and 92.0g Thickness: 6.05mm Freq.: 1420Hz Balance: 2.6cm (Low) Edited by Hipnotic - 07/07/2021 at 6:16pm |

A hard top ply over a soft medial. Springy and fast, with the added help of the Soft-Carbon layer, which is subtle, but gives some extra stability to the blade. Handle made with Burl Poplar and Bubinga. Available FS. Composition: Purple Heart / Spruce / Soft-Carbon / Kiri / Soft-Carbon / Spruce / Purple Heart Weight: 92.7g Thickness: 6.0mm Freq.: 1400Hz Balance: 3.2cm (Med) |

What a beautiful blade! I bet it plays very close to a Iolite sister.

Hmmm, I'm not sure... Iolite is thicker and the top ply seems to be thinner than usual. There must be a 3+2 blade with Spruce outer out there, but nothing is coming to mind.

An inner carbon blade with soft outer plies, with a personalized head and handle shape. The handle is made up from Ebony and Mahogany wood, with a design resembling a traditional Japanese Knife, invoking the owner's roots. Composition: Ayous / Spruce / Carbon / Ayous / Carbon / Spruce / Ayous Weight: 92.2g Thickness: 6.05mm Freq.: 1356Hz Balance: 3.4cm (Med) |

This blade suffers from an identity crisis. One side Amultart, the other ZJK SZLC, with an handle inspired in the Revoldia and the old TB Forte. Full credit to the owner for the design, I'm just glad I could accomplish his idea 🙂 Composition: Hinoki / ZLC / Kiri / Ayous / SZLC / Koto Weight: 89g Thickness: 6.2mm Freq.: 1570Hz Balance: 3.1cm (Med) |

With this blade, the owner wanted a more tamed version of a TB ALC. The lighter color scheme of the handle also reflects that. Composition: Koto / ALC / Ayous / Kiri / Ayous / ALC / Koto Weight: 87.8g Thickness: 5.75mm Freq.: 1360Hz Balance: 2.7cm (Low) |

One of my latest challenges, the "Dotec" all wood handle. It took a couple of tries, but eventually I found a way of doing this consistently. Blade 1 - Limba / Limba / Ayous / Limba / Limba 90.9g - 5.90mm - 1205Hz - Balance: 2.9cm (Low) Blade 2 - Hinoki / Padauk / Kiri / Padauk / Hinoki 86.9g - 6.10mm - 1080Hz - Balance: 1.7cm (Very Low) |

It is low for what you can usually see in a Hinoki blade of this type, but it has to do with the proportions of the layers. The blade is "only" 6.1mm, with a thin core and thick outer plies. If I had used thinner outer plies and a thicker core it would've have been stiffer and the frequency higher, but we were really aiming for a All/All+ blade here.

Just put this one on the shop. It was my first attempt at manual engraving, not the most artistic rendition, however the composition is very attractive! Composition: Spruce / Spruce /Textreme-Carbon / Kiri / Textreme-Carbon / Spruce / Spruce Weight: 88.4g Thickness: 6.05mm Freq.: 1350 Hz Balance: 3.0cm (Med) |

Another pair of fake twins. This time, besides the obvious difference in the handles, there is also a slight twist in the composition as one of the blades has a Limba middle ply and the other one Ayous. It may not seem like much, but it does make an impact in the performance, despite having the same frequency. It's as I always say, frequency doesn't tell the whole story. Also, it proves something I wrote in one of my latest posts (https://www.sdcttblades.com/nerdy-stuff/the-importance-of-the-middle-layer), the middle layer has very little impact on stiffness. By the way, that Ziricote wood is some heavy stuff, but it sure looks good. Composition: Framiré / I-C / Limba and Ayous / Kiri Weight: 90.7 and 91.2g Thickness: 5.8mm Freq.: 1356Hz Balance: 2.1 and 1.8cm (Very low) |

These babies aren't going on any of my blades, but hopefully they will find good homes 🙂

This one was a first for me, very challenging but fun experience, and also a learning opportunity. It's not easy working with balsa and cork, but at least I wanted to give it a clean look because I always see these types of blades with such clumsy edges. They also look very boring, with just a Balsa handle, but they don't have to be. It did turn out heavier than intended, and that was the learning part, but the owner was still very happy with it. For some reason I wasn't able to get a clean frequency peak, but it was definitely higher than 2000Hz. Composition: Framiré / Balsa / Cork / Balsa / Cork / Balsa / Framiré Weight: 85g Thickness: 13.2mm Freq.: ??? Balance: 4.8cm (Very High) |

Another flag to the collection. The blade itself was based on a Tibhar Defense plus but with a few tweaks. Composition: Fineline / Balsa / Ayous / Ayous / Limba Weight: 79g Thickness: 6.4mm Freq.: 1205Hz Balance: 2.1cm (Very Low) |

I have some customers who like to experiment as much as I do. That makes it even more fun for me, I can also learn from their feedback, and sometimes I get to make blades that I wouldn't think of. In this case not only the compositions are different, the handles and neck all have small tweaks, trying to improve on previous iterations. Blade 1 - Mahogany handle Framiré/ Framiré / S-C / Kiri / S-C / Framiré / Limba - 87.4g - 6.1mm - 1464Hz - Balance: 2.9cm (Low) Blade 2 - Black Limba handle Limba/ S A-C / Ayous / ALC / Framiré - 89.0g - 5.75mm - 1464Hz - Balance: 3.0cm (Med) Blade 3 - Thermally treated Ash handle Limba/ ALC / Limba / Kiri / Limba / Kevlar / Framiré - 88.5g - 5.75mm - 1350Hz - Balance: 2.6cm (Low) Edited by Hipnotic - 09/06/2021 at 9:02am |

A pair of inner fiber blades, basically the same composition for both, just a different fiber used in each one. The head-size is a little bigger (158x152mm) and the handle and wings were made to be close to a Viscaria. Brown handle - Orange Fenix Composition: Koto / Ayous / S A-C / Kiri / S A-C / Ayous / Koto Weight: 88.1g Thickness: 5.85mm Freq.: 1464Hz Balance: 2.5cm (Low) Black handle - Blue Fenix Composition: Koto / Ayous / SZLC / Kiri / SZLC / Ayous / Koto Weight: 89.1g Thickness: 5.85mm Freq.: 1485Hz Balance: 2.4cm (Low) |
