How does this compare to the Donic Balsa Carbo Fibre?

The Balsa Carbo Fleece uses aramid fleece outer layers vs the Carbo Fibre's carbon layers. Fleece = softer feel, more dwell time, slightly less speed, better control. Carbon = harder feel, faster, less dwell. Both use balsa core and are similarly priced. Choose fleece for touch, carbon for speed.

Can I use this blade for defensive or counter-attacking play?

Yes — the fleece construction's dwell time and control-friendly character makes it suitable for counter-attacking and service-receive play, not just pure attacking.
