NOVUS Ignito
A hinoki carbon attacking blade thin enough for beginners to handle. Its strength is a high overall balance.
Performance
XIOM NOVUS official, 1-5About this product
The same hinoki three-ply with Energy Carbon, but noticeably thinner at 6.2mm — 1.4mm less than Axelo.
At ₩110,000 it is also the cheapest of the three. The price is lower because it uses less wood, not because it is a lower grade. If you want to try the hinoki family but 7mm-plus feels like too much blade, this is the way in.
6.2mm sits close to the normal range for an attacking blade, so this keeps the character of hinoki three-ply while staying at a familiar thickness. Coming from a five-ply carbon blade from another brand, this is the least jarring of the three.
What you give up is the return its siblings generate through sheer thickness. If you want the blade itself to supply the finishing ball, look at Axelo.
What the numbers say
Outer 3-ply Hinoki + 2 Energy-Carbon plies 6.2mm. Its rigidity of 6.0 ranks 4 of 8 blades, mid-range. Its control, by contrast, is 4.0 — among the lowest. Based on the manufacturer’s published figures.
