Hi Yori, I've been using this blade for the past month or so, mostly with 729 cream. Good for serving and it blocks extremely well, which I like. I don't think I've found the ideal rubber yet for it for my game. One thing I found about the blade though is that the top veneer is pretty soft, so that when you remove rubbers you invariably pull wood fibers off the blade. To prevent this I sanded both sides and sealed it with a polyurethane varnish (minwax wipe-on). This prevented the fibers coming off, but I think perhaps stiffened the blade up a little (which I didn't want). Still a great blade though. |
