Love the blade and feeling very balanced in hand. Paired with the right rubbers and skill this is a dangerous weapon. I have the Tenergy 05 hard on FH and Tenergy 05 BH. To be honest it’s a little too fast for me so I will change the rubbers. When playing against same level or weaker opponents the fastness is an advantage. However against better or more skilled players it’s a disadvantage they use the fastness against you blade and rubbers if you do not have proper experience and technique. I recently came from the SANWEI PARA ARAMID CARBON FIBER BAT paired with SANWEI Target National Blue sponge FH AND SANWEI Gear Hyper Red on BH. Those are tacky rubbers and fast but not as fast as Tenergy series I feel. So for now will look for something of similar rubber feeling as the SANWEI Target National and Gear Hyper for the viscaria blade.
The blade itself self is sturdy and well made and I can see why the pros used it for so long. The weight makes it feel like an all wood blade not to heavy but just heavy enough to feel good in hand. If you like carbon and don’t mind spending on a blade this is it. But there are other great carbon options like the Primerac Carbon, Timo Bol ALC , Fan Zhendong ALC ETC.

· Part of Butterfly Arylate-Carbon Blades (ALC)
The Butterfly Viscaria blade combines the Arylate fiber features of lightness, flexibility, and shock absorption with the carbon fiber features of high elasticity and minimal dissipation of energy. The result is a wonderful combination of power and control, with a sweet spot larger than a traditional all wood blade and softer touch than a standard carbon blade.
This Butterfly table tennis blade is ideal for quick counter-looping right off the bounce, though it is still capable of producing strong shots back from the table. The superior balance of offensive and defensive performance has been proven by the fact that many top players around the world still use it and continue to deliver results.
To increase the grip on this blade, you can add Soft Grip Tape, providing grip and comfort to the racket handle. Another great choice to extend the longevity of your racket is adding side tape to the blade, protecting the wood in the event it is hit on the table.

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.

Reviews of Butterfly Viscaria - Chinese Penhold (133)
Im using Viscaria with Dignics 05 on both sides. I tried many other blades and rubbers and this fits me the best. Its most likely too fast for some. Not for beginners. But if your playing aggressive and crazy rallies this is an amazing setup.
Love everything about this blade. Perfect arc, fast blade and amazing backhand blade. The best out of around 10 blades i have tried.
I love the Viscaria racket - together with Butterfly Dignics rubber series, they improved my game considerably.
