First post, I've just jumped on the Ross Leidy bandwagon and am now on the waiting list for a blade! C-pen, Off-, Limba-Spruce-Kiri-Spruce-Limba, Handle-details to be finalized. Can't wait! :clap:

What would a combination: Anigre/Kiri-koto do? koto for forehand and anigre for backhand do? should I use medial plies between Koto and kiri and anigre and kiri?

thanks!

Ross has just finished my blade. This one is a slightly modified version of his Rapscallion blade (http://www.rossleidy.com/blades/models/ ... index.html), using spruce instead of mahogny as medials. It's also as far as I know the first penhold Rapscallion.

Theoretically the spruce should make it slightly softer, lighter and introduce a little more dwell time, while maintaining the same flex as the original design. We'll see how it works out in practice. It's the standard 6.2 mm thickness with a weight of 79g.

The handle is amboyna burl with end caps of purpleheart and bloodwood.

This beauty should be leaving Ross on Monday, as soon as I receive the blade it'll be put through some heavy testing and then I'll put up a review. Well, as soon as I can persuade myself to put rubbers on this work of art, that is.

Pics for your enjoyment:

Very nice pics, thanks for posting!!!

The signature adds a nice touch! Good to see Ross hasn't been sitting on on hands, but keeps coming up with new gems! :up:

Sooo, I was supposed to write an in-depth review for this blade. Well, haven't gotten around to it yet, and now I'm off for a 3-week trip. But I'll make sure to do it when I get back.

My new Ross Leidy blade! It's the USB model with an awesome redwood burl handle.

This is how I hold it. It looks uncomfortable but It is probably the most comfortable grip i've ever used and provides great handle control for me!

If it works for you, that's all that counts.... there is no right or wrong here. ;)

That is a variation of a "V" grip. Which side do you hit a forhand with, the side by your first finger or your second finger? :)
