00:00If you're an attacking player who's tired of your blade feeling like a wet noodle every time you go
00:04for that big forehand loop, stick around. I spent way too many hours digging through listings,
00:09comparing reviews, and pestering my club buddies, and I finally narrowed it down to the 5 best
00:14carbon table tennis blades for attackers, and yes, I found the best deals on every single one of
00:19them. Some of these are genuinely shockingly cheap for what you get. Starting with the Sanway
00:25T5000. This is a 5-wood, 2-carbon build, and the thing I love about it is how forgiving it
00:31feels
00:31for a carbon blade. Usually carbon means harsh and unforgiving, but the T5000 gives you this nice
00:38medium-hard feel that still rockets the ball when you commit to a loop drive. It's $9.12.
00:45$9. Almost 5,000 people have bought it and it's sitting at a 4.8 rating, which tells you everything.
00:52If you're moving up from an all-wood beginner blade and you want speed without losing your
00:56touch on short game, this is the easiest recommendation on the list.
01:01Next up, the Loki Urkstan one, and this one is the value king at $7.97.
01:06$7 for a 7-ply, 5-wood, 2-carbon offensive blade with a 4.9 rating from nearly 5,000
01:13buyers.
01:14What stands out is the stiffness, it's got a properly solid feel through the ball,
01:18so your third-ball attacks actually get punished into the table instead of floating.
01:22This is the blade I'd hand to someone who's training hard three times a week and doesn't
01:26want to cry when they chip the edge. Buy two, keep one as a spare, you're still under $16.
01:33Now let's talk about the real weapon, the Inha V14 Pro.
01:37This is a 5-wood, 2ALC blade, that's Arale carbon, the same fiber concept used in blades
01:42that cost 4 or 5 times as much. And you can feel it.
01:47There's this dwell time where the ball sinks into the blade before it launches,
01:51which is exactly what you want for heavy topspin loops. It's $44.27, which is the priciest here,
01:57but it's built to provincial team spec. If you're a serious looper who's ready to
02:02stop upgrading every 6 months, this is the one you buy. Then there's the Loki Kirin series,
02:08the K9, K10, and K11 carbon fiber models, plus a K7 pure wood option if you want it.
02:14These are rated OFF+, so we're talking genuinely fast, aggressive blades for players who attack
02:20first and ask questions later. $13.68 is the entry price, and the fact that you can pick your
02:26specific model means you can dial in exactly how stiff and fast you want it. 4.9 rating,
02:32over 4,000 sold. Great pick if you know your game and want options.
02:37And finally, the Inha T11s, and this one's special because of the weight, 72 grams.
02:43That is feather light for a 5-wood, 2-carbon offensive blade.
02:47If you're a fast hands player who lives near the table, blocking and counter-hitting and flicking
02:52everything, a light blade is a genuine competitive advantage. You get faster recovery between shots
02:58and weigh less arm fatigue in long matches. 2872, 4.9 rating.
03:04For close-to-table attackers, this is a cheat code. All 5 links are down in the description,
03:10and I checked the prices this week so they should still be good.
