I like the handle- nice and simple. Reminiscent of the old Matsushita and Shibutani Pro models.

The secondary plies look like Koto. The outer plies also look very, very thin- Especially since the blade is only 6mm thick. I wonder how it will play?

Yuuto Muramatsu, a gear that combines super attack and cut
Youth Olympics silver medalist Mr. Yuuto Muramatsu has been trying to raise further levels by seeking the battlefield from Europe in 2016. A new "Yuto Muramatsu" racket is held on its right hand. By using white mahogany wood on the surface, it is a gear that increases the establishment of the attack strength of a single shot, while emphasizing the control of the cut defense. The answer to the new Muramatsu victory equation is this racket.

[Muramatsu sound]
Material: 5 sheets wood
Weight: 93G ±
Made In Japan


Looks like a whiter version of the VKMO!
Same weight, size, thickness and wood plies...

Looks like a lighter JSH blade to me :)


These Google translations have certain charm to them... I'm a bit puzzled by 'hold in your right hand' requirement, though. :?:

How much lighter than JSH?

Actually, I edited my post... Looks extremely similar to the VKMO except Victas uses white wood plies.
JSH is usually close to 100g :(

So, is anyone going to compare it to the VKMO?

Well, OFF- is good, not enough oversize blades with speed out there. Is it wishful thinking or does the handle look a little wider than VKMO? I'm still very happy with Spinlord Ultra Carbon DEF but if the handle doesn't suck then I'm sure I will get this at some point.

VKMO and YM handles have the same size according to Victas: 100x23mm
I really doubt that the YM's handle will feel as thick as your Spinlord's.
Would be interesting to read some reviews of this "new" blade.

VKMO is slightly slower, softer, and lighter than JSH.
I dare to say overall feel is so similar.

She/he is asking about the new Victas Yuto Muramatsu blade.
I play with VKMO but the JSH is insanely heavy and fast.

This blade is going to be identical to VKMO....it the same thickness, Same wood, same outer ply. The only difference is that they have bleached the outer ply to a lighter colour.

There is going to be a flood of reviews with different perspectives about which blade is faster slower harder softer etc etc etc. Let's just remember that even amongst the SAME blade there is great differences in feel and speed due to weight fluctuations.
