I first used this blade with the premade mark V rubbers on each side. It was a great beginner blade in the all + range. Then I bought the blade separate put Razka 7 soft on each side and my gameplay rose but I noticed very quickly that my forehand needed harder rubber as I was getting close to bottoming out the rubber and the balls weren't inconsistent when hit hard and fast. So I switched to dignics 09c on the forehand. It took me 2 months to adapt but boy was it worth it. I shot up in skill and can comfortably play against 1300 rated players. The blade really works with all types of rubber is a marvel to block and counter with looping is very spinny smashing is great. It's got incredible feel to it. A great touch and just enough power to finish the point. You feel like you can do anything with the blade chop, smash, spin and the throw height feels perfect to keep the ball low but high to clear the net. The outer ply is harder and the inside soft so it plays very linear and as expected. A very nice all around offensive blade that will go up in power with harder rubbers. People say it's nothing special haven't spent time with it. It doesn't do 1 thing amazing it can do everything at an above average level and that's what makes it special. Jack of all trades master of none.

Reviews of Yasaka Mark V Special Edition (4)
I use this with a flared handle along with the Stiga Airoc S 1.9mm on both sides. It works very well and surprised me with the speed you can achieve even if you have softs. The control was as you would expect running a soft sponge. I am not too concerned with the weight with regards to speed as it was easy to defend against smashes and surprisingly good at fast aggressive loops.
I purchased 2 of these and they are very different in speed. 1st one was quite good in terms of speed(pretty fast) but the 2nd one was like all blade and seriouly lacking speed. Also suface of the blade was very rough. After I took out the rubber, I sawsome file fiber coming out. But I liked the 1st one though.
