Blades
Table tennis blades — the wooden frame a racket is built on. A blade is bought once and kept, and the rubbers glued to it are replaced as they wear, so this is the part of a setup worth taking time over.
Construction is the first decision. An all-wood blade flexes more, gives the clearest feedback and is the usual recommendation while a stroke is still being learned. A composite blade carries a fibre layer that stiffens the frame and adds speed at the cost of some feel — carbon is the most common of those, with arylate-carbon, ZLC, aramid and fibreglass each trading stiffness against touch differently.
Then match the blade to how you actually play. Offensive blades are built to throw the ball back hard and suit a game played away from the table; allround blades give up some speed for control and are the easier place to develop a stroke. Where a blade sits on that scale matters more than its price does. Our blade selection guide places every blade we carry on that scale, brand by brand.
Weight and stiffness are the fine adjustment. Lighter blades are quicker to move into position and more forgiving over a long session; heavier ones carry more through the ball. A stiff blade returns energy directly, a flexible one lets the ball sit on the wood a fraction longer, which is what players mean by dwell.
Handle shape is a variant, not a different blade — flared (FL) widens toward the base and is the common choice, straight (ST) is even along its length and suits players who change grip, anatomic (AN) is contoured to the palm. Pick by what is comfortable in your hand, and remember a blade needs two rubbers to become a racket.

DONIC BALSA CARBO LINE: Balsa wood is known for its light weight and soft properties, carbon for its rigidity and stability, and the result of combining them is incredible. Together, balsa and carbon minimise the weight of the blade, enable powerful and controlled attacking shots and provide an exceptional feel. Table tennis can be this easy!
This one is for offensive players that love lightweight blades. Extremely lightweight, hard and noticeably fast with an exceptional feel.
Technology: 7 veneers made of balsa (core veneer, 5 mm), carbon fleece (3+5), limba (2+6) and yaya (outer veneer).
Very similar to the CLASSIC POWER ALLROUND, the DONIC CLASSIC OFFENSIVE differs decisively in one point: the core of this offensive table tennis blade is formed by the new textile fibre (flax cloth BF3) and is covered by two layers of ayous on each side.
The result is a more direct touch, more speed and more force, but since the outer veneer is made of spruce, it still provides good control. Therefore the DONIC CLASSIC OFFENSIVE is not just exclusively for hard-line attackers.
Technology: 7 layers of flax cloth BF3 (core), ayous (3+5), ayous (2+6), spruce (1+7)
Character: Fast, medium hard, dynamic
Recommendation: Table tennis blade for offensive players who are looking for the playing feel of classic blades.

DONIC ORIGINAL NO 1 SENSO + NO 1: what sets these elegant blades apart is the perfectly coordinated combination of high-quality veneers and high-quality workmanship.
The ayous core is surrounded by two layers of acryl-carbon – premium acryl-carbon in the ORIGINAL No 1 SENSO – while the other plies, made of limba and ayous, give the DONIC ORIGINAL No 1 and its brother, the DONIC ORIGINAL No 1 SENSO, their incredible penetrating power. That adds lots of power to your topspins!
This one is for dynamic attacking players that predominantly utilise topspin strokes. Hard and fast, with a centre of gravity shifted towards the blade face.
Technology: 7 veneers made of ayous (core veneer), premium acryl-carbon (3+5), limba (2+6) and ayous (1+7, outer veneer), SENSO handle technology.
Seven plies providing pure power: this blade is designed for dynamic attacking strokes and for aggressive offensive players looking to score points with powerful shots. Fast, dynamic and powerful.
Technology: 7 veneers made of abachi (core veneer), abachi (3+5), koto (2+6) and walnut (1+7, outer veneer). The carefully coordinated inner plies are bonded using a specially developed carbon gluing process, and the hard walnut outer veneers perfectly round off the blade as a whole.
DONIC ORIGINAL TRUE CARBON INNER – the inside secret, for all players who are looking for control but also for the acceleration to suddenly attack in decisive moments. Materials and method of production are absolutely first class: DONIC have used the same high-quality plies as in the DONIC ORIGINAL TRUE CARBON, which is already a classic.
What the TRUE CARBON INNER adds is a completely new carbon ply, Hybrid Aramid Carbon, which is not placed under the outer plies but completely embraces the inner plies. The result is a softer touch and even more control than with the TRUE CARBON, at slightly less speed.
