The Chinese Penhold version of the SK7 Classic Blade is a 7-ply blade with characteristics that is ideal for power play from mid to long distance from the table. This blade has hard feel when power shots are activated, while supporting touch shot on block, and over the table delicate shots. It has an average weight of 88 grams, blade thickness of 6.8mm, blade size is 182x24mm. The best recommendation for this all-wood blade for rubber, is the Dignics or Tenergy 05. Those 2 rubbers have the highest arc, and the shortest landing spot on the table. If you are a player that wants your ball to travel a longer distance, then the Dignics 80 or Tenergy 80 is ideal. If you want your ball to the have the longest travelpath, then the Dignic 64 or Tenergy 64 would be best. To add more grip to this blade you can get the Soft Grip Tape. It provides grip and comfort to the racket handle. Another great choice for racket care is adding side tape to the blade. It can protect the wood in the event it is hit on the table.
