One blade, drawn as technical linework at real shakehand proportions. The laminated edge along the crown and right rim exposes every ply boundary in the stack. Edge depth is illustrative because physical veneer thickness is not published.

Stack order — face A to face B
- 01KotoOuter ply
Hard, dense outer veneer — a crisp, direct hit and plenty of speed straight off the bounce.
- 02Krypto CarbonFibre layer
Voluminous carbon-fibre structure — high energy return with a wide, stable hitting zone.
- 03AyousMedial ply
Very light medial or core wood — keeps the blade low in weight and widens the sweet spot.
- 04Kiri — coreCore
Paulownia core — extremely light, damping the stack and slowing the blade down for control.
- 05AyousMedial ply
Very light medial or core wood — keeps the blade low in weight and widens the sweet spot.

Voluminous carbon-fibre structure — high energy return with a wide, stable hitting zone.

Hard, dense outer veneer — a crisp, direct hit and plenty of speed straight off the bounce.

Note: Specialist inspection places the Krypto Carbon beneath the koto outer veneer; the ayous medials and kiri core come from a blade database.
About this blade
TIBHAR MK Carbon is a 7-ply blade built around Krypto Carbon fibre placed outer, with Koto on the playing surface and a Kiri core. Koto in the outer layer: Hard, dense outer veneer — a crisp, direct hit and plenty of speed straight off the bounce. Ayous in the medial layer: Very light medial or core wood — keeps the blade low in weight and widens the sweet spot. Kiri in the core: Paulownia core — extremely light, damping the stack and slowing the blade down for control. Krypto Carbon in the fibre layer: Voluminous carbon-fibre structure — high energy return with a wide, stable hitting zone. Physically it measures 5.8 mm thick, around 85 g. TIBHAR positions it for off play.
TTDNA ratings
NormalizedPerformance
Construction
Material properties
Playing profile
A TTDNA blade rating measures how much of the named characteristic a blade has. For descriptive rows — flex, stiffness, vibration, head heaviness, weight, thickness, carbon feel, softness, technique requirement, spin sensitivity — a higher number means more, not better.
TTDNA ratings are normalized comparison values, not laboratory measurements. They are built from published specifications, technical sources and structured product evidence, converted to one 0–100 scale. Where a directly comparable measurement is unavailable, the value is an evidence-based estimate. Overall-style scores are composites of several characteristics. Methodology
