Our notes: • One of the most promising blades in the market at a very low cost. • The blade feels like a cross between a Clipper wood and a Nittaku Violin. It is faster than both blades mentioned, but has less vibration and a better feel on ball impacts. • The newly improved handle is one of the most ergonomic handles on the market. • Among all-wood Sanwei blades, this seems to be their most promising.
This blade is factory-sealed so blade sealing is not required.
Maintaining the outstanding performance of the original V5, the new V5 surface is made of a hard Ash wood (like Nittaku Violin), which helps increase attacking speed. The original 3.3mm core is now 3.5mm, increasing power and elasticity. The preferred choice for quick attack and looping players. The special design of the handle is made using a brand new shaping production technique.
Professional racket assembly is offered on several racket combinations free of charge. Please add a blade and 2 rubber sheets to the shopping cart to activate the racket assembly option on your cart. For more details see Racket Assembly FAQ.
You may also select ready-made rackets and pre-selected combos from our rackets section.
You have to try it. Reading and comparing by book never gives the same result .. Feeling of the blade - like musical instrument.. speed - fast. Faster than Clipper. Faster than Nittaku violin carbon with same rubbers. . Best blade I have tried for hitting through under spin. You can simply topspin smash through under spin. .. hardness - perfect hardness - harder than Clipper or DHS hurricane long 2 . Flex - good for looping.spin - very spinny..control - for such speed it is very good control. best rubbers - Victas V15 EXTRA and MX-P ;;;; G-1, C-1, Andro Hexer, Rasanter, Victas limber, Rakza soft - all these did Not play that well on the blade. Even Tenergy didnt seem to make such a complete combo as v15 Extra or Mx-p. .try it. .Best blade I owned for under $50. I am buying second one while they are still available. I bought from aliexpress. It came with Sanwei Box, production number on the box and quality, surface, evenness are definitely top notch.

Blade is very fast, but not without a decent measure of control. Can’t imagine why it is rated “Allround” or “Offensive -“. Paired with the right rubber for you, the blade is sheer joy to wield at mid- to long-distance from the table. For me, boosted B’fly Rozena adds huge spin to the blade’s speed on forehands, and soft Donic S-3 controls (and varies) the pace from the backhand side. While the feeling does provide less feedback than, for example, a B’fly Innerforce blade, it is a different kind of “touch”. Happily, player adjustment is rapid, especially if you remember to let the setup help do the work, not just your speed of stroke. The V5 rewards proper stroke technique as well as any I’ve used (and there have been many). Forget to use reasonable technique, and you won’t be happy. Employ solid technique, and your opponent will be very unhappy! In a way, that suggests blade should be put in the hands of newbies who have mastered stroke basics and are ready to advance; since employment of proper technique is rewarded so greatly, it is strongly reenforced. Oh yeah, the cost… As a long-time equipment junkie, I judge the V5 to be a superb best-bang-for-the-buck blade for players ready to step up their attacking game. Just an all-wood blade, you say? I don’t care; THIS all-wood blade just works!

This blade is amazing. It is a great blade for beginner/intermediate players. That outer ply gives it that gear up in speed when you need it. You can hear it when it kicks in. The handle is very comfortable. Not sure what wood it is, but it feels very soft to the touch but hard and firm when you are playing. Vibrations feed very good. I liked it so much I bought another one just a little bit ago.

I buyed this blade with 41. Mine was 87g, 6mm. VERY comfortable handle. Nice finishes for the price. I have been using Yasaka Valmo *max* on FH and Tibhar Quantum S *max* on BH for 2 months. I would say that it has a great consistency and a good control; the speed is nice for an OFF blade and its very nice playing with it. Nothing is a downside on this blade.
