Hi Jared,
It may be OK, it is probably better to use a slower blade though which will give you better control.

One thing to note, for actual low chopping, you do need a fairly powerful setup. That's because you're fairly far away from the table but still need to send back low balls, and to be low the ball needs a lot of forward velocity to get over the net at the height of it's arc.
