Âthese days, when even companies like Butterfly (just to mention 1 of the big ones) have some of their goods manufactured in China and
European companies are doing the same, it is impossible to say what and where the origin of a blade is.
The above mentioned companies are known to sell clowns and/or copies of well known manufacturers products.
I have seen some of the products that """Look """ as well manufactured as the originals B U T i have also seen some that look like complete crap. 😁
Often, when looking for a clowned item one can find better ones at a better price too and some are of excellent quality.
think of big Chinese factories that might make several thousand of 1 specific item. Buyers then buy a few hundred units
from the manufacturer choosing from different graded quality. Once anyone buys a certain amount, this stock can be individualized with different
handles, different printings, different plastic inserts etc. etc..
It is a Jungle out there
Most of the time when we spend top money on a top brand we get a guarantee of top quality product.
Sometimes though even these top quality product are known to de-laminate and fall apart 😆
Are they actually trying to clone the butterfly composition? Weight, wood type, thickness? Or they just make a racket to only cosmetically look like the butterfly?
ÂAre they actually trying to clone the butterfly composition? Weight, wood type, thickness? Or they just make a racket to only cosmetically look like the butterfly?
that is not easy to answer. It is probably a bit of both.
If you are lucky you can actually end up with a clone that has been nicely made, the wood combo and the fibers can be same or similar and
the blade will play just about un-distinguishable from the real thing. for about 1 / 10 of the price.
I have Stuor Ma Long 5. Ok for the price but very different then original
Is it actually arylate carbon weave? Or just a standard black carbon? Is it inner carbon?
How is it different? A lot slower?

ALC or carbokevlar . pretty much a rip off of the BTF innerlayer.
Some come with limba outer and some with Koto.
In this case the Stuor Ma Long 5 is typical to what i said before : you can get a better made version cheaper somewhere else on Ali

Can you link to the one you say is better and cheaper?
I got a BTY Revoldia last year. The blade played fine, and quality was OK, but i can't tell you If it was as the original,since I haven't tried it
I also got once a "Viscarla" clone that played absolutely identicaly to the legit. Even our domestic pro didn't realize it was a clone indeed
Can you link to the two items you bought?

you are mixing up the posts...
I am also interested in testing an Lemuria blade, like super zlc or revoldia but i am not sure if it is not a waste of money.
You should get one and tell us how it is. I also ordered a Zhang Jike ZLC fake for $20 just to see how it is.
