Hi guys,

I'd like to try chopping with ox dhs cloud and fog 3 but I feel my joo se hyuk blade will be too quick.

There is a player who uses this rubber in America called jian li that uses an old butterfly matsushita Pro model blade that's not longer made.

I'm looking for a blade thats made currently that is just like the old butterfly matsushita Pro.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Adam

Yinhe 980XX

Butterfly Hadrawshield...In a way that's what it's made for...
Another one, Tibhar Stratus Power Def. with a slightly robust Matsushita Pro feel.

+1 for the Yinhe 980XX, it's a straight up clone.

I played the Matsushita Pro Model last week with Curl P1r 1mm & Tibhar El-s. Compared to JSH and VKM-offensive with the same rubbers on it, it is MUCH slower and softer, with a very hollow sound. I would say: perfect for ox-chopping to have the best feel and control.

An alternative could be the first VKM-blade, which is a bit less slow and not so hollow. I don't know about the VKM-defensive (is it the same as the first VKM?), never played that one.

There's also Donic Defplay, but with the hollowed-out handle, it is very head heavy, which might not feel comfortable.

From what I recall, the Defence Pro, so called successor of Matsushita Pro is also not as soft and slow as Matsushita Pro & Defplay.
