What is the thickness of this blade? 6.3, 6.8 or maybe 7mm?

Actually it's still in my sister's place in san fransico
I will try it on December, will give a review compared to non JTTA version.

Clipper Wood in Japan is the more expensive than Clipper CR. Normaly CR is more expensive.
Stiga Japan has the best quality has JTTA imprint at the bottom of the handle
Stiga China is also good, but Japan is better, it has hologram sticker on the bottom of the handle.
The rest is common one which has round paper sticker at the bottom of the handle.

The price of clipper Wood is 13.000 yen, more expensive than 10.000 yen butterfly blade like schlager carbon,TBS, Viscaria.
Making all wood blade requires better quality wood, while composite blade usually use not so good quality of wood.

Yeah the price is also more expensive...
Thanks for your correction
I have compared China version of clipper CR and the normal one, China version is better.

It says in the lense (pic. in 2nd post) that the blade is in fact made in Sweden.

Stiga must have legal recourse against these companies that violate copyright laws. How can they get away it? Yes the quality may be high but it's still a crime to make these blades unless authorized by Stiga. Perhaps I am in the dark on this subject but someone needs to stop it.

Thanks for clearing that up.

If you don't mind the extra hardness on the top ply then Clipper CR could be an option. I heard the Adidas Challenge Speed plays like the Clipper but with better feel.

What particular characteristics of a Clipper Wood are you looking for?

The blades have a "JTTA" on one side of the handle?

Which blade would you recommend if I wanted something similar to the Clipper Wood but a little lighter?  DHS PG 7. Great Clipper like blade that is a bit lighter and a tic slower. Doesn't have the high end punch of Stiga Clipper but still in the same ball park.

Anyone know anything about the Stiga CR WRB Special? I picked one up and heard it was made for pro's. Looks very nice...but never seen one. It says "Special" with a stiga insigna in the side of the handle

Here is the picture of the blade from stiga japan websites:

I prefer the limba top ply of clipper wood rather than clipper cc at above pictures, how do you think guys?

And here's the photo how these "STIGA SPECIAL" blades looks like:




Maybe someone from Nexy has more information about these Stiga special versions, since the blades are still available for purchase from their website:
