Combining a player friendly weight, incredible control, and an all new improved feel, the updated Wilson BLX Blade 98 has everything to be a worthy successor to the widely popular K-Blade 98. Implementing the newest technology from Wilson, the BLX technology, which utilizes Basalt fibers interwoven with the graphite matrix, this frame features less unwanted vibration without compromising rigidity of the graphite matrix for a pure feel at impact. What this means for the player is a more comfortable feel without the muted feel that is sometimes associated with dampening systems. The BLX Blade 98 continues its tradition by keeping the Karophite Black material, which was designed to give players a solid feel and improved control. Karophite Black is created by crosslinking the carbon layers in the graphite matrix for greater strength and rigidity for enhanced stability. The tweener weight is combined with a midplus headsize and dense 18x20 string pattern to offer a friendly control frame appropriate for a wide range of styles and abilities. This versatile racquet is capable of performing from anywhere on the court as it remains both maneuverable for quick exchanges and stable to take full cuts.

For more information on choosing a racquet, please see the Tennis Express Buyer's Guide.

I Love This Racquet!

User: Robert Ward, TN

I just bought one of these on a whim, because I have always used Wilson racquets and it looked cool and swung well in the air. But now I have played with it for three weeks and it has terrific feel and control, and still packs a wallop when you want to. Serves better than any racquet I have ever used!

Great purchase! I received 4 demo racquets through tennis express and the Blade 98 BLX was one of them. I loved the weight of the racquet and it really helps with volleys at the net. It produces plenty of spin and every shot feels solid. Accuracy was unmatched and I am loving my new racquet.

Wilson BLX Blade 98

I have been using Wilson sticks for about ten years. I was previously playing with the K Blade 98, which was a good racquet but felt unstable especially when playing big hitters. So I tried the BLX Blade 98. I must admit it took a little getting used to. But after using it for a few weeks I love it. This stick is very stable, has great control and much more power the K Blade. The biggest difference for me was with my one-handed backhand, which I am now able to rip more topspin and flat shots with confidence, control and consistency. Additionally, because of the stability of the frame, it is easy to block even bullet passing shot at the net. Overall, a great racquet.

After playing with the BLX Blade Tour, which I felt lacked in power, I tried out the BLX Blade, hoping it would provide more. I normally play with the six-one 95 series, so playing with this racquet felt a little different. I felt like every shot I hit had a dull feel, and not enough pop. The racquet did provide a little bit more power than the tour model, but this just was not the racquet for me

This racket is just the right weight I was looking for, it has a very nice swing and offers plenty of control. I went with customized hybrid strings and I love the way it hits. I had to order a grip over wrap after playing with this racket because it didnt offer as much cushioning for my hand as I prefer. Overall I am very pleased with this racket.
