UPDATED !!! ... new addendum. This blade is a clone of the Butterfly Viscaria Super ALC !!! - direct comparison with the original, without rubbers, "bare" blade: the original has a softer touch and is a bit faster. However, the Lemuria provides more feedback. After I was able to play the original from a friend and was absolutely thrilled (- but didn't want to spend over 200 € on the original!!!), I remembered the good clones of Lemuria that I had bought many times in the past. - and so far I am not disappointed at all !!! :-D The handle of my selected blade, with 86 grams, is almost as strong as the original. - but should be absolutely suitable for most players. The workmanship is generally very good, and sanding isn't really necessary. However, one criticism is the poorly cut carbon throughout the entire blade area. ... the bright blue (S?)ALC almost "peeks" out from between the veneers! - and I've never experienced this synthetic fiber so bright before. The blade dimensions, by the way, correspond to those of the original: 157 x 150 mm. For my first extensive test, I sealed the blade with clear varnish and then glued the XIOM Omega 5 Asia (FH, 51°, 2 mm) and the DHS Gold Arc 5 (BH, 42.5°, thick) onto it with solvent-based glue. This test surprised me, especially since the GA 5 harmonizes better with the blade than the Omega 5 Asia. - however, I expected a different result!!! Addendum: I replaced the Omega 5 Asia (FH) with the DONIC BlueStar A1 (both 2 mm thick) and the GA 5 (BH) with the Tibhar AURUS Select (1.8 mm before, now 1.7 mm!) The fact that I replaced both rubber pads with pads of the next higher sponge hardness has had a decidedly positive effect. ... the overall weight is only 180 g. This combination is simply outstanding and highly recommended!!! - pure feel & control. ;-P ... but anyone wanting to buy this blade should wait for the right price on AliExpress!!! - because it fluctuates between 63 and 80 euros / 74 and 94 USD. ;)
