Which is faster, Primorac Carbon or Avalox BT 777? How do they feel differently?

They are roughly about the same but in different ways.  I would give the edge to the Primorac on speed by a slight margin.  The Avalox is stiffer and harder on the blade face.  The Primorac has a softer feeling blade face and I like the control better.  I like the Primorac Carbon on blocks and smashes since it has a more solid feel to it.

I used the Straight handles on both blades.  THe Avalox is rounded and the Primorac is Squared.  I liked the rounded edges of the BT777, it was very comfortable.  On the other hand, the Primorac's handle is pretty big and confortable because of the size. 

I believe the Avalox is thinner, but I could be wrong because I did not use them side to side.  I had used them at about 3 months apart from each other.  But it seemed thinner.  The Primorac Carbon is about 7.1.  I don't know the specifics of the thickness on the Avalox though.

Please delete this post . . .  it was a duplicate of the previous one.

Thanks, SDRamones

From your experience, do you think BT777 worth the price?

To me Schlagercarbon and Primorac Carbon are good but I am feeling they are somewhat overpriced.

Also, if BT777 goes with Donic F1 (as I am not a glue fan), do you think the paddle is fast enough? How about Sriver EL to go with it if it's re-glued?

Both blades are plenty fast. 

Sriver EL is good with or without speed glue, but is better IMHO with speed.  Donic F1 is pretty fast on it's own and the combination will be quick.

the Avalox BT777 is a real good deal at it's standard price.  It has similar speed to some of Stiga's CR wood blades and similar Swedish blade quality.  I personally bought the Avalox Ma Wenge which is about that fast maybe faster and a little stiffer.
