Looks like one of the lavender “victory lap” (re-release) Sparrows that came out back at the end of August. ---

I really like it! I have a Kuntosh QV which is really nice and this Kuntosh is very similar with some minor differences. The shape is surprisingly comfortable in the hand despite being a collection of angles. The Kuntosh has a irg which I always like seeing on throws, they seem to have gradually been fazed out of more modern releases but it’s always nice to have the option of doing a quick thumb grind. And of course the Side Effects are another great feature. I’d highly recommend it if you’re looking for a throw that can handle a variety of tricks, comfortable shape and powerful spins. The only downside is that it doesn’t fit very well in my pocket! ---

It does kind of feel like a plastic. It has a lot of extra power compared to how a plastic of this size and shape would play though. Normally a plastic this small and organic would not be very stable. ---

I finally got my grubby little hands on an Assassin! My first Dressel Designs throw was the 5050, which I absolutely loved, so I was anxious to try the Assassin. I couldn’t tell if I was more excited or scared to give it its inaugural throw, as I was hoping that I’d like it as much as the 5050 but was worried that I had gotten my hopes up too high and I’d be disappointed. Thankfully, it surpassed my expectations and I instantly fell for it. Despite being similar in weight, it has a very different feel on the string than the 5050 and complements it well. Before comparing the specs, I figured the Assassin was heavier because it felt more powerful to me, but apparently, that’s my over-active imagination. It’s a lot of fun to throw, as it’s got spin time to spare, great stability, snappy binds, and feels great in my hand. I’m a sucker for undersized throws, and that combined with the stainless steel makes this one fantastic-looking yoyo. Mail days like this one with an absolute stunner don’t come along very often, and it’s made my day. Thanks, Patrick, for another fantastic throw! ![DresselDesigns-Assassin-Artistic](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/b/3/a/b3ae50ea5cf49e9c91b9cedcb38cfe960cdb9798.jpeg) ---

Great pic!! Glad it lived up to your expectations!! Honestly a big fear of mine was my 5050 not living up to the assassin for those that had it and vice versa, but they actually complement each other very well! ---
