Nice work Ross, of all your blades I've seen this one is the most visually appealing to me. +1 for no edge banding too :rock:

Thanks, guys. The outer plies are bleached-white obeche (ayous).

This blade was targeted to be an ALL+ for speed.

Yeah, I saw mmerkel mention that over at mytabletennis.net.

Just making sure that it was intended for that!

Hello Ross,

I noticed you made an Acoustic like blade for someone on this forum.
I was wondering if you are able to do the same for me, only thing is.
I want it to have the handle of a butterfly flared blade (I prefer it to be as the Photino fl handle). Also I would like it to be of the same material as the acoustic handle is, since it gives me great feedback and I think the materials you are currently using might change it.
Since the head size might change playing characteristics, im not sure wether to use the Photino or Acoustic head size.

I know im new to this forum but im very serious in this enquiry.
Im from the Netherlands.

I could measure sizes you need since I have a few Photinos and Acoustic (L-Size, also normal one is on its way as we speak)
Please contact me by pm or mail, or reply here if you feel you should share your skill ;)

Kind regards,

Johan (SunTzu)

That last blade is absolutely STUNNING.

I WILL own one of these blades in the near future when I get some funds. I've made the switch to All wood with my recent purchase of an Adidas V1.5, and have no desire to go back to composite layers.

Ross, I may be in contact with you soon!

Ross, what would-

Anigre 1.2-Koto 0.7-Balsa 1.5-Koto 0.7-Anigre 1.2

-turn out to be? I guess its sort of a defensive blade.

Possible blade for Joola Timeless

TheOldDuffer comissioned a blade on behalf of a friend specifically to use with Timeless anti. The composition is a kiri core, thick/soft obeche medials, and moderately hard figured Australian walnut outers. I estimate it will be OFF-. The handle is an extra-long ST (109mm) made from another Australian timber, figured macadamia (a gift to me from Tassie52 from his last project), and an end cap of ivorywood. The blade will ship tomorrow, and theOldDuffer has promised to post the results (good or bad).

Looks like an interesting blade, I hope that it works as planned!

Stunning work Ross, I can't imagine amount of hard work that you put into these blades, but I can see it through the results!

Woo hoo! I'm so pleased the macadamia has found a good home. I think it looks rather special, and the ivorywood end cap sets it all off. I hope the blade works well for tOD. :up:
