Sorry for the long windedness, but my impression from touching the test throw barrels at the event was, I LOVE THEM!!!
I think that Target has gained a certain reputation for this process with the barrels of Mr. Haruki Muramatsu and Mr. Phil Taylor, but neither of them have a cut. Mr. Taylor has a cut, but it is difficult to handle if the barrel is not long enough or if you are not good at holding it forward because of the cut from the center to the front. But this barrel is a sight to behold! Like other recent barrels, it has a cut in the grip area, but the special cut process gives it a good grip, hangs well, and is easy to handle.
Also, the sandblasting on the front of the barrel gives it a matte feel to the fingers, making it feel like a reverse version of the aforementioned barrel.
I liked the cut mainly!
It's more finger-friendly than the Pyro 3, but it's still able to pull through.
So it flies better!
The barrel is black due to the processing, but I personally like the silver rings and design cuts that make it look really cool as a design!
I think the specs are even better than the Pyro 3 and I recommend it!

Contrary to its rugged appearance, I think it is a gentle barrel. It is very easy to release from the hand and rarely gets stuck. It is not a heavy barrel, but it flies powerfully. In his commentary on the form, Mr. Hoshino (and painter) said, "It flies beautifully, doesn't it?" Taking this as a hint, we have made a conscious effort to make it fly beautifully, and as a result, it has become a much more bull-hitting barrel. We think this barrel is the best barrel that conveys Hoshino's commitment while adopting Target's technology such as sandblasting.

I was concerned about the barrel rolling in my hand without a good grip, so after repeatedly trying and throwing several barrels with polygonal cuts, I reserved & got this barrel.
The polygonal cut is not as uncomfortable as it looks, yet it reduces the rolling feeling. I expected it to sting my fingers, but I was surprised that it was gentler than the ring cut. The swing of the arm is received purely as propulsive force and the rod flies in a straight line without any sticking sensation at the time of release. This feeling is amazing.
What was even more decisive was that the sandblasted front part of the barrel felt soft and smooth against my finger when I put my middle finger on it. If you have a barrel with a cut in the front, you will feel too much pressure, or if you don't have a cut in the front, you will feel it slip out. I have found the ideal barrel for me, which averages out the changing elements of the grip well and flies well forward.
As for the flight of the Kanjin, it flies like a 20g weight barrel and is very reliable. It stung with the same sound quality as the heavier barrels I was comparing it with, and I couldn't believe that it was the same 17g as the barrel I had on hand.
Zdong! I want to have a "Zdong!
If you want to try it, please give it a try.

Purchased.

This time, I switched from the Bull's Star Hoshino model. I was worried that the cut of the Pyro series would be too tight because I was used to the cut of the Bull's Star Hoshino model, which almost never touched my fingers, but the polygonal cut and delta cut are perfectly balanced and the cut is gentler than it looks.

However, the cut is gentler than it looks, with a perfect balance of polygonal and delta cuts.

The shape of the barrel may be a matter of personal preference, but I think it is a good barrel for a wide range of users.

This is a test throw only.
First of all, the cut is quite gentle, despite its tough appearance, but it is not as insecure as a micro cut. I think you will have almost no trouble releasing it.
As for the weight, I think it is designed with a weight and center of gravity that can be thrown by both those who like it light and those who like it heavy.
So, compared to its innovative appearance, the barrel has no peaky parts, and I think it is a barrel that suits everyone.

I pre-ordered and purchased it at the beginning of September.
I have been using the Hoshino model since GRRM, and the previous Pyro 3 was not quite right for me, so I was not sure about it. Blazing Shadow is Good! Wonderfully good!
In a word, balance!
I think the cut is one of the key points, but I thought the balance was better than anything else. I think the cut is one of the key points, but I think the balance is better than anything else.
I think this model can be used for both beginner and advanced level.

Highly recommended!

This is a replacement from Pyro 3.

I was satisfied with the length, thickness, and weight of the PYRO 3, but after using it for about six months, it started to slip out from time to time.
I was satisfied with the length, thickness, and weight of the PYRO 3, but after using it for about six months, it sometimes started to slip out.

At a quick glance, the cuts look tight, but when I looked at each cut carefully, I found that they are not cut in such a way that they take too much.
I hold the pencil with a three-finger grip to wrap it as deeply as possible, but it still takes as much as I need.

I am satisfied with this barrel because it is important to find a barrel that allows me to achieve my ideal throw.

By the way, the matte finish on the front is already scratched, but I don't particularly care because it has nothing to do with my grip.

Personally, I find this barrel very easy to fly and the grip is very comfortable.
The sandblasted finish is good as long as it is there, but once it is gone, it feels like you have a completely different barrel (just my personal opinion). And this finish is also gone very quickly when you throw it in the barrel.
If you like the sandblasting process and you want to throw a lot more barrels, I think you should consider this when you purchase this product.

This was the fourth barrel I bought.
The polygonal cut has increased the contact area, and I feel that the grip has improved.
The shape of the barrel is like a model of a torpedo, so it is easy to apply force to the barrel and I could feel it fly as I expected.

However, the polygonal cut with the increased ground contact area may cause some unnecessary twitching for those who throw without rotation.

The barrel is really cool, but the sandblasted finish peels off quickly.
But the peeled appearance is also cool!
