The strength of AirOS blades has always been choosing good woods. Now the natural beauty is on display. We use a more expensive cut of wood for the handles rather than stained layers, and avoid the bad paint jobs. More importantly, this wood absorbs and evaporates sweat better than stained blades, and to me feels less slick, especially over time.

Between the 5 and 7 ply, the 7 plays a little stiffer and perhaps slightly faster but softer. The 5ply has a brighter tone and is a little more flexible, while the 7ply has a lower tone and feels more stable. Koto is generally harder with a crisper, higher tone. Limba is softer and gives more topspin.
