A very good blade with lot of control but it lacks of enough speed/ power to play away from the table. also worth mentioning it´s ability to lob. with japanese or german rubbers it works very well, with decent loops and a long dwell time, providing with good feel. paired with chinese rubbers it can be very slow, however it produces a large amount of spin. i recommend it to beginners and players with medium experience looking to develop their own game

This is a Stiffy Blade, can't bend it using my hands, but in burst attacks it does have some sort of arc (bolt) which i think is the high throw angle that tranceds to the trajectory of the ball. and is very good at looping the ball toward say on the left and right corners of the table. So yes I think the "technology" that this blade has in it, yes it works. Idk if it's a standard high throw angle. Instead, the ball just goes with that trajectory to the edge of the table almost every time you hit with a little kick, it sends it long even with only a bit of tilt so yes at that it's 10/10. But, at the end of the day, it's just a featherweight ultralight crisp and very frail and not durable at all blade, it just has one specific trait, and in that it excels, but everything else is a major weakness. The blade is more towards the Softer side, it's from a series that has the same feeling in the Butterfly lower-middle (i suppose?) but not premium at all tier. And its not oversize nor it looks like a common ALL blade, it is stiff but u dont know it until u see it doesnt bend when u hit powerful shots. With speed, it does have really good speed on Burst Attacks and Banana Flicks, but in every other aspect it doesnt excel as much. In the Control area it does stay better, you can send long placed shots on the sides of the table, due to the arched trajectory that it has If you don't swing properly so as to send the ball straight. "Always identical" might seem like a good thing but the craftsmanship isn't ideal. because this blade is super thin, featherweight, crisp and stiff and lacks any form of durability. That's how it was made with this exact purpose in mind, so it's for a very specific type of player. Also the handle is very cheap and absorbs moisture easily and the sides chip away instantly If You hit the table by accident. it doesnt give me a good feedback and feeling which is crucial for me. but yes it does have a good Bollt

Butterfly has confused the identity of their allround blade by changing the colour of the handle from yellow (which is now given to the TB control) to grey (previously the TB allround+). This is a very good allround blade, slightly harder than classic allrounds because of the koto outer veneer. Marginally larger than the TB offensive so slightly more flex. It would suit any beginner/intermediate player as they hone their technique. Beware of changing rubbers too often as the top veneer will come off at the edges despite varnishing. Best straight butterfly handle for larger hands. Works well with Chinese and European rubbers. Because of its fragility I would in retrospect opt for a cheaper Chinese alternative from Yinhe or Sanwei.
