Review of Butterfly Joo Se Hyuk

I didnt like this bat when I first tried it. But the more I used it the more it grew on me. The only thing I dont really care for is the handle. Kinda slick. I prefer the Defence 2 handle more. Great for chopping and looping. Will work as a classic or modern defence. Is somewhat heavy but I like a heavy blade. Bty says 100g. Also very expensive at close to $100.

Review of Butterfly Matsushita Pro

I have TSP P1r curl w/ 1.3 and Joola Express 2. Awesome control and sends a very flat chop back. Very hard for someone to loop more than 3 in a row. The only bad thing is the handle. Kinda small.

Review of Butterfly Defence 2 (II)

A great blade. Easy to chop with and will loop with the best of them.
(update)After I have used the Victas Koji Matsushita I found that the Def II is too soft to chop effectively. Does loop well but there are better chopping blades out there. Like the VKM. Great blade.

Review of TSP Victas Koji Matsushita

Been useing this bat for about 4 months now and really like it. I have TSP P1r with 1.3 sponge and I think it chops better than the Def II. Out of all the chopping blades I have used this one suits me the best. It is some what difficult to find a FH rubber that works for this bat. But the handle (flared) feels great. Slower than the Def II and Joo. About the same as the Bty Mat Pro but after you get used to it has a better feel. Mat Pro IMO is too soft. My next FH rubber try will be the Yasaka Rakza 7 in 2.0 sponge. Tried Bty Tackiness C Soft, Joola Express 2, Express 1, and Joola Brave. None of them felt right. We shall see what happens.
