Excellent. Played in every single aspect. The zylon carbon fiber, offers great feel and touch as well as dwell time and spin. However, when looping hard, the blade amplifies the power to such a degree that I simply had to either ease up on my Lube, kill shots or the ball with just go off the end of the table. That was the only aspect of the blade I could not overcome and why I stopped playing with it. I have too much power as is and I don't need the assist from the blade, especially the way this blade does it. It's almost like a trampoline effect and it is for me too hard to control.

FAQ: Does Megaspin sell Japan-made Butterfly blades?
Some Butterfly blades like Korbel and Grubba are produced in factories both in Europe and in Japan, so they exist in 2 variants. When a Japanese blade has a Europe-made version, we always carry the Japanese variant. Other blades like Butterfly Timo Boll Offensive are only made in China so we cannot carry a Japanese variant of these blades.
FAQ: Do Butterfly blades come pre-sealed?
All Butterfly blades come pre-sealed from the factory. There is no need to add blade sealing but you may if you require additional protection.

I built a paddle with the Apolonia ZLC and Dignics 05. It has helped me take my game to the next level (compared to a lighter, cheap, wood paddle) by increasing my speed and attack. After a week of adapting I went against a player I had never scored more than 2-3 points against and averaged 7 points per game, almost winning one of the nine games.
This blade seems to have a pretty good sweet spot, good weight, and lots of power. Combined with the dignics 05, I can be given backspin and rip it back just as quickly or hit topspin I could not before.
With lots of power, I also feel like this blade has some decent control and consistency- I am able to land shots very close to where I want them.
The quality looks to be top notch. Really glad I took the plunge and purchased this blade.

ts like innerforce layer zlc older brother. Blades playing alike, but apolonia has more speed, dwell, spin and also control. Using with dignics 09c on both sides. Serves is very dangerous loaded with spin, just move ur legs in proper position and loopkill for easy points. Definitely for attack oriented players. Quality of the blade and its feel is very very premium. This is my favorite weapon now and i giving 10 of 10.
