Hello Everyone! I recently traded with @Xanadu and received a DD Assassin V1. I didn’t realize how small it was; I was primarily attracted to its wide, organic shape. However, I freaking love it. It’s going to be a daily carry for me. I aim to get my hands on a V2, but what other throws in that diameter range(46-48mm) are also great? ---

For another stainless steel the zeekio d bearing alpha steel is a must have. One of my favorites. I like it as much as my assasin. It’s also a SS organic but they couldn’t feel more different. It’s a tiny bit smaller but you wouldn’t know it from how well it plays ---

I think I have only seen the TP 2 mentioned by one other poster on YYE in the last couple years. I only just now realized that a TP 3 was released back in January. MIID-Y is also cool (and on sale), but a further 2mm in diameter away from the 48mm range requested here. > **[MIID-Y](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/products/miid-y-yoyo-by-turning-point?variant=40944433856702)** > > New release from Turning Point - The MIID-Y is the signature model for 5A pro Hiroyasu Ishihara!
