ZJK blades discontinued

[SkyTennisTT]

Hello,
I think everyone is aware that Zhang Jike recently signed with Donic. The Butterfly blades such as Zjk alc, zlc, szlc has been discontinued, out of production. Just a reminder for anyone who is thinking about getting one for playing or collection, the prices will go up soon and is already happening in places like China.

No worry, there are too many blades to choose from.

Or BTY will rename the blade.

Haha, I bought one for fun. Unlimited money glitch (my poor wallet)

No regret, the ALC version will look great in my collection. I'll sell off most my blades

I was really debating on T5000, as that has amazing feeling aswel. But a shot in the dark for the ALC version is also fine

Isnt it a viscaria with a different handle?

Its not completely the same. Its based on the viscaria but there are some minor tweaks in the performance. Just like the Fan Zhengdong alc.

[andzejgolot]

Done

FZD's contract with Butterfly will likely last for another few years just like ZJK's back in 2018.

I'll be glad to get rid of the banner at bottom of the forum
But they will probably fill that space with something as meaningless (to me)

I can guarantee you Donic ZJK series will take over that banner

timo boll retired so they will discontinue boll alc in the future too?

Korbel retired and the Korbel is still out there. They don't retire brands without strong marketing reasons. Boll and FZD blades will be around for a while though LSD blades will surely be in the pipeline.

Yeah, the reason ZJK series is discontinued is because he was contracted by another TT brand (Donic)
