I'm adding this to the loaner arsenal.

To be paired with 729 Cross or Batwings. BTW any difference between the 2?

"Surface material: dedaru" Does anyone know what that is. Search comes up with either a band or a World of Warcraft character.

Don't know if anyone remembers the "bat bat", but here's the "bat ball":

Isn't 729 Cross non-tacky? Or maybe I've got that confused with Higher/Faster/Focus... if you think about it, Dracula's allergic to crosses.

Not sure what dedaru is, either, but it does resemble obeche/ayous - big, elongate pores, stripey. Fairly soft and fibery, do seal your blade. Or you will pull fibers loose.

I ordered a pair a couple weeks ago and received them today. One is 76g, the other 77.6g. The blue and red handles, and the printing on the blade is the new style "Junior" logo (complete with OFF+ typo). Interestingly enough, one has the older black "Sanwei" logo under the lens, the other has the new red "Sanwei 40+" logo. :lol:

I'll look through my pile of rubbers for something to use on these. The back side will probably be my usual vinyl "carbon fiber" decal sheet. There's only one person in my group who plays penhold, I'll try it out on him.

There's another sale coming up - the price will drop to $5.74 including shipping! (I got a similar price before Christmas but had to add $2.70 for shipping two blades...) If you want a half dozen or so club bats now's the time to get them.

They're actually shipping stuff through Singapore for some weird reason. Maybe they send stuff by container to a Singapore sorting/shipping facility. The return address was Changi Airport, not Tianjin!
