On few sites I found this blade, it's out of stock. Does somebody know where could I found one?
Also, I found on site it's nearly stiff blade (although 5.8mm looks to me like not too stiff ). Is it still good for looping game style?

Eacheng.net carry most of Galaxy blades, K-4 is listed there. If a blade contains 2 carbon-kevlar layers, it can be very stiff - generally, it only depends on the thickness of those two layers and they can still be very thin to deliver a lot of stiffness..

I'm not really sure, but I think the K series was replaced by the V series.
From what I've seen on eacheng and ttnpp Venus.15 replaces K-5, Venus.14 replaces K-4.

huh, it's hard to track all these names of Galaxy blades...everything is similar, names non-descriptive, lot of blades have same characteristics...
If k-4 is tbs substitute, as sites claim, shouldn't it be good for looping style(I suppose it needs flex then)? On this site I found on few places ' it's not tbs clone but it's similar'. What is kind of this similarity, in which aspects it is better , in which is worse/different?
V-14 seems similar, slower - this I'd like, but softer - this I'm not sure I like. Which one should be better for close to table looping/attacking?

Check with fareastsports.com and with tabletennisonly.com - they might have it or they could order for you.

ttxonline.com has a huge selection of Galaxy products at rather good prices as well.
