Hi guys!

Any opinions/reviews on this blade made by Palio?
It's one of the only ''defensive'' blades avaliable in my country, and since i'm a chopper i thought it would be great to give it a try...
I've heard some people saying that this blade is an ''Butterfly Joo Se Hyuk clone'', but i dont know about that

Thanks

I've played with the blade for a year or so. But this was like 3-4 years ago and at that time I played more defense and used LP and now I play more allround with a classical Anti on a fast blade..
But what I think I remember is this: it's not a slow blade (It's a relatively fast defensive blade) and it has a harder feeling - not very flexible. I liked this about it a lot - I don't like flexible blades with pips so the Palio was very nice for me.
I liked the attack with it (used with Battle 2) too..
Really can't say much more about it cause I don't remember a lot - I liked it, played with it a year or so and switched to a much faster (OFF) blade and that change was a step towards style change.

After that I gave it to a friend of mine who used it with OX pips for push-blocking game - it was a little fast for him (as he was used to playing with Nittaku Endless) but the reversal was good
