Reviews of Butterfly Petr Korbel (44)
Great blade classic blade. Excels on topspins and looping. Sweetspot is not huge but still good. The speed is good my one is 92g good quality product for the money.
Great blade for beginner - intermediate players. Started using it when I picked up table tennis after 10 years. Paired it with H8 and Tin arc 5. Good all round, nothing stands out. I do find the handle being too small, maybe because it's the euro version.
very balanced chassis, great for both the attack and for the block, classic features, good elasticity and good speed, not to mention control. I am using it with a XIOM Omega asia V max forehand and a backhand Donic Acuda p2 max and I think I trovatoun excellent balance. In total racket that manages to be complete without shadows.
This is a soft and nice feel blade.
Ive used Bty Viscaria, Stiga clipper wood, Avalox BT777, all fast blade. Eventually wanted to try a softer and better control blade. Then decided to go for Petr korbel. At fist point holding the blade, the handle kinda feel differrent from Viscaria/ Clipper wood which is more full. Korbel handle feel more like avalox BT777 or even P700 feel. Thinner and i like it better. (im using Flared handle). The first glance on the blade, what i could say is the classic. 5 ply consist of Limba-Limba-Ayous-Limba-Limba. Initial thought of this blade is its soft, comfortable with feeling the ball. DHS TG 3 neo on forehand and Xiom Sigma Europe I as backhand. Tested the blade for few session. What ive got is as shown. Serving : The serve of this blade is real spinny and good. No matter downspin or sidespin or topspin, it is very easy to get use to it and even "feel" the ball much more compared to harder and faster blade. With proper technique and contact point of the ball, the dwell time is significantly longer than some other blade. The combination of the wood structure make serving feels good. Topspin and counter topspin : The trajectory throw angle of the blade is higher than i expected. The forehand and backhand looping is very consistence. With proper skills and posture, the looping is great. However, some more power is needed in order to loop far from table. The power of the blade is kind of medium. While in term of short/ touch play, the blade if combined with the proper rubber, gives a very comfortable feel despite its soft and flex characteristic. The return will be consistence, not too high nor low. Giving the good consistency for a player to master and brush the skills. Overall,in current 40+ plastic ball modern gameplay, i still do feel this blade is good for amateur player. If you're kind of lost on which blade to get, hesitating what you really want, you could try this blade for the good feeling and looping.
After a two and a half year search for a new blade, this all-wood one outperformed all the others for me. Suitable for the spin-focussed attacker who needs dwell time on the blade to maximise loop spin and placement. Beautiful feel on short game.
It was recommended to me by a hungarian coach who plays in the german bundesliga, which is itself an impressive reason to take notice. I have witnessed that, with his technique, there is no limit to the power and spin that can be generated from this blade. My perfect rubber for this is Tibhar Evolution (MX-S & EL-P). crucially the excellent sponge design means the ball does not 'jump' off your bat on touch shots, and power & spin is great. I suggest no-one worries about the comments about the small handle for this blade. it is easy enough to wrap non-slip tape to your preferred thickness of grip. NB - Last year I placed a good review for the Xiom Zetro Quad blade. I stand by that. The recommendation to use this Korbel blade came later.
This is simply the best OFFENSIVE blade. I have been playing for over 10 years trying simply everything (Tamca 5000, ALC, ZLC, ZLF, hinoki etc) This blade will make you better player. Has power, great control, touch and feel. Plays well with fast low throw rubbers.
It is also affordable. If you want the best quality Korbel, find an old one with metal tag. They simply play better than all the modern ones and they have bigger more comfortable FL handle then current.
With the advent of the new plastic ball I think the Korbel is the new Primorac blade. A great blade for allround play with speed. FL handle is small but comfortable. Head size is a bit larger than most and can be head heavy with thick rubbers. The look of this blade is classic. Not to fast and not slow this blade would be a good choice for a wide range of players. Price is lower than Primorac. For Tenergy users 1.9mm thickness is a good choice to reduce weight on the Korbel. A very good pick for allround offensive style.
Mine Butterfly Korbel is 85g (today you can find it in a range from 80 to 90g and it's produced in Hungary). It's a great blade, classic! I haven't known that so many today's professional players still playing with it (Gionis, Shibaev, Kallberg,..). Its composition is like old classic Stigas, 5-plys, limba-limba-ayous-limba-limba, around 6mm thickness. Beautiful feeling, comparable with DHS PG-7, but as it is 5-ply, dwell is even better and better control, a bit more stable with slightly less speed. High throw blade, great for looping and good for short game incl. serves. But the feeling is important for me, together with PG7 , the best feeling I have ever tried! If you search for loopers blade with euro/jap tensor rubbers on it, you can stop your search! If you are an amateur offensive spin player, you do not need a better blade.
amazing for spin and great flex away from table and vs backspin good with hard rubber fh and soft rubber for bh
many gears" anazing control
Played with the Primorac for 2 years and bought this one together with the TBS (couldn't resist to buy both these legendary blades). After some testing to compare these blades, I decided to go for the korbel. It's just better for an attacking style than the primorac if you are not a beginner anymore and still maintaining reasonable good control for pushing. The primorac has slightly better control but is also slightly slower for attacking. So pushing is just a bit more difficult with the korbel. All other things are amazingly better. Once I'm good enough that pusing is 5% or less of my game, I'll go for the TBS. It is again slightly faster but pushing is not it's strength by far. attacking strokes on the other hand are simply breath taking.
Flared handle is way to thin for my liking, and I don't have "big hands". From wrist crease to middle fingertip on me is only 7.25" (18.5cm).
It says right in the description. Used by one of the hottest "young" players, and USA "young" stars... It's probably sized for junior hands. Other than the grip size issue it seems fine.
very good legendary offensive blade, good on topspin play, but is difference Korbel made in Japan and Hungary made...
Classic Blade. Nice Blade one of the best blade and cheap blade having both speed and control. It can be used with OFF and OFF+ Rubbers
I have this tree since it can do everything, flip, driving with ease topspin, counter topspin, block, has a large sweet spot and remarkable control from the first den.moeto weighs 84 grama.veroyatno new model, the handle is thicker and has a good balans.ne nai fast but enough to finish the point, a unique reverse vrazka.imam baracuda 2.0 fh T05 fx 1.9 bh, unique
Love this blade at the moment. The handle is thinner than most blades and this is very noticeable, but (I think) easier and more comfortable to play with. I use this blade with Joola Energy x-soft 2.0 on both sides and can't seem to find any fault with it. Also, the feel is great on both short touches and long drives or loops. For an offensive blade, chopping is reasonably controlled too.
