Customer review for Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Special - Chinese Penhold

External Review for Yasaka Extra Special on May 7, 2015

Same composition and quality as barwell for much much cheaper price. Its more than great value for money, it is getting a priemium blade for a fair price.

This short review is the same for Barwell and Extra Special.
Certainly on of the best clipper based blade. The Walnut outer gives amazing control and power, the touch is great. Throw is medium high, speed is off+. The blade is topspin monster close and mid-range, short game is very good thx to amazing touch, speed/spin/control ratio is amazing. The solid feel is amazing for blocks. Tested both Barwell and Extra Special with bluefire M2 both side. Sold my barewell, bought two other Extra Special (91gr each, blade has good balance, feels much lighter than my Butterfly IF ZLC of 89gr with same rubbers).

I commend this blade for those how wants a premium clipper based blade, with hardwood outer. If you liked Ebenholz VII, Rosewood VII, Barwell, Timo Boll W7, Stiga CRW VII.........you will also like the Yasaka Extra Special and you will love its price compared to the previously listed blades.

If you liked Yasaka YEO and wants somehow even more power, you can consider the Extra Special as a great choice, but you can also think about the Extra Offensive 7 Power.

For those who love their Barwell, give a try to the Extra Special, its the same but much cheaper......same quality.
