Customer review for Butterfly Petr Korbel

External Review for Butterfly Petr Korbel on November 28, 2016

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.
