Well I got some new blades and I'm quitte anxious to try them out.
I don't know if I'll be able to use them all coming weeks due almost being out of glue haha.
Over time I'll try to review them all.
Anyway the blades I got:

Bty Viscaria
Bty Ishlion
Galaxy Custom (5+2ply, 0.8mm Hinoki, 0.6mm Limba, Arylate/Carbon, Balsa core.)

Especially the Ishlion has a beautifull grain and just breaths craftsmanship, and damn... is it light for a carbon blade.
The galaxy is quitte a bit larger as I expected and probably because of this also slightly heavy.
I'm sure Silver could also provide some info for the Ishlion and Galaxy if somebody would ask since he's the one I got them from.

Conclusions after trying out all blades:

#1 Bty Viscaria.
High speed and very high spin potential. On the heavier and harder side and is very nice for blocking. Biggest problem for me is the low trajectory.
My favorite and I might even switch it with my voilin and try to get used to the low trajectory.

#2 Galaxy Custom (5+2ply, 0.8mm Hinoki, 0.6mm Limba, Arylate/Carbon, Balsa core.)
Pretty light but not as light as the Ishlion. No feeling, soft and good for looping. Further high speed on loops but low speed on blocks. Bad for mid distance and I cannot play with a blade having no feeling.
My dad likes it so I'm probably going to glue on some rubbers and let him have it.

#3 Bty Ishlion
Very light and fast blade that shines when used for driving. Also very much head heavy and with low dwell time making it horrible for looping and the blade I like least of this set.
Very much going to sell/trade this blade.

I am maybe to curious but where do you find the Ishlion blade?

I have bought one for a friend at the Iruiru shop but I am looking for another resaler as I have huge import costs with Iruiru.
