I just received my Discount Coupon yesterday as well. I'd definitely be thinking about ordering 1 w/ my ideal weight before xmas .

I got my coupon too, only problem was when I opened the letter the tiny little coupons flew up in the air and one of them (the one for the virtuoso) fell down the crack between the cars handbrake and the centre console and I can't get it out yet... This is a job for later in the day because it'll take some time to get it out. The blade is a little too fast and thick for my tastes anyway so I doubt I'll use that coupon but I might be able to use the free shipping on an immune ox

I mean to get the background to be so dark. Love to know. Thank you. Sorry for the delayed response. I use a D-SLR with an external speed/bounce flash. Shutter speed of 1/250th of a sec. I hang the handle off the edge of a high table in my Kutchen. The bounce flash blows up the close object and the shutter speed combined with the angle of the flash doesn't allow the floor to be exposed. Hope that makes sense. Taken with a Nikon D3200 an aftermarket bounce flash.

I know a little something about D-slr and external flashes as well. Not I never I had proper training on how to make great use with it. I have a canon d-slr and a canon speedlite external flash where the head can tilt up and down and side to side. When you say you bounce flash, do you mean like you point the flash up to the ceiling instead of directly on the blade handle? From my own experience, that would still make the entire environment bright and visual. Sorry if this is off topic from table tennis but I really wish I know how to achieve that photo shot. Thanks in advance.

... basically i direct the flash in a way that the area beneath the blade is in a blind spot... or around the corner, you might say

lol... now I can't even type K I T C H E N

Although I don't own any OSP blade (thinking about buying one),  through the different posts, I have the feeling that you can differentiate two groups of OSP all wood blades-on one side, Expert, Virtuoso and Virtuoso +,and on the other side, Musko, Ultimate and Martin, which have in common that they are faster and have 7 plies. While I read many things about the first group (specially Expert and Virtuoso) I didn't find many comments about the specific differences between the three last ones. What do you find the special features that distinguish each of those 7 plies blades?

From the picture i have uploaded, is it fake?
No P engraving and no virtuoso plus engraving in the handle.

Its not from this forum though.
I get it from a friend and he also get it from another person.
I think im the 4th hands of this blade.
