Butterfly Innershield ZLF

Review of Butterfly Innershield ZLFThis may be Butterfly's biggest lame duck ever. At over $200, there is nothing remotely special about this blade, other than the fact that I pulled off splinters the first time I took off a rubber -- this never happened with the other dozen Butterfly blades I've owned.Blade has so much vibration. The vibration is crazy. It's very flexible. It's also very slow. It's not easy to attack. Also, the handle is smaller than other Butterfly blades. This is an extremely overpriced classic defense blade.. The ZLF fibers do nothing to help with vibration, sweet spot, or power. Epic fail by Butterfly. Feb 04, 2013 | |||||||||||||

JOOLA Flame Medium

Review of JOOLA Flame MediumI use this for modern defense. 2100 USTTA. This blade has a speed similar to Boll ALC, using Tenergy 05 on the FH. It's got plenty of power. Flex is average. I use LPs on the BH for chopping.It's a great all-around, offensive blade. I've tried dozens of blades. I like this b/c it has a hard outer ply, which gives it a little kick. The relatively thin blade means it has good control for blocks. I'd recommend it for all levels of players. For those who want control yet a decent amount of power. For those who don't like a too soft feeling blade. It's great for OX lps, as it creates a load of reversal. Jun 06, 2014 | |||||||||||||

Nittaku KVL

Review of Nittaku KVLFaster and slightly stiffer than Joo Se Hyuk blade. Has a medium-low throw.This one is made in Japan. Has a slightly larger straight handle than some other Nittaku blades, which have pen-like handles. Suited for modern defense. Looping is not quite as good as some of the other blades due to its linear and lower throw. However, I rely on my fh loop/attack, and so certainly this is an excellent blade overall for looping/hitting. I use it with Feint Long 3, which takes off some of the speed. I have no trouble controlling BH chops. Vibration is about average for a defense blade, which tend to have more vibration due to large headsize and thin body. Out of about 10 defensive blades, I've played with, this one is what I chose b/c of good feel, attacking ability, etc. A great blade -- I wish they'd release it in the USA.
