The original Quicksilver was introduced in the 2000-2001 season and won a large following at all levels of squash. For the Quicksilver nXS, the original frame shape and specifications have been respected, but the materials and structure have been brought up to current standards.
Spotted in 2018, this updated version is called the Black Knight Ultralight Quicksilver nSX. This is strung with Ashaway Supernick ZX 17g Orange.

I’ve had this racket for a couple of weeks. This is a head heavy racket, not even balance as it is advertised. It feels very heavy. Sure, you have a lot of power, but it gets really nasty when you try to control the ball. I would recommend it only for power. I’ve turned to the bk blaze lt which feels a bit like a head light racket. This one has power and control.

Agreed Paul. I’ve recently purchased a new nXs 2530 as well and it is certainly head heavy. The paintwork is a bit odd though, as it states two different Average Frame Weights – 125 grams and 130 grams – as well as stating the Dynamic Frame Weight as 130 grams, which would make it head heavy or evenly balanced depending on which of the Average Frame Weights is correct.
According to Sports Virtuoso the Quicksilver Max https://www.squashsource.com/black-knight-quicksilver-max/
is balanced more evenly than the nXs. A shame they don’t have the Quicksilver TC in stock as I’d have liked to have seen the comparison.
