Butterfly Omar Assar innerforce zlc (500 pcs worldwide)

[Topspinslinger]

I don't care, I bought it🤣

looks a lot like the ovtcharov but with ZLC instead of ALC. would be brutal fast! maybe with softer wood for a better touch?

btw: no shade to omar but i really don't get why to build another blade for him, while they have so many good players on team butterfly and a lot of really good woman that deserve their own blade. a miwa harimoto special edition would be super cool or a adriana diaz blade with the g-floss handle

Omar belongs to Africa continent , and its all about business to cater to that region players

Interesting - it states a Germany manufacture.

Manufacturer: Tamasu Butterfly Europa GmbH, Kommunikationsstr. 8, 47807 Krefeld, Germany

Which is wrong.
It is made in Japan, so it should have listed the Japanese company name/ address

Its made in Japan and they use Krefeld as the place to distribution

Because it is first time from long time to use European OEM for premium release
example Golden Viscaria only for China.
Maharu Yoshimura ZLC only for Japan.
You want Miwa Harimoto, you will get only in Japan.
You want Adrianna Diaz, if European cant buy Omar Assar blade, how you want motivate Butterfly to make blade when 500 blades is too much to sell
There is a lot players for special release, Apolonia ZLC, Freitas ALC or maybe Maze ALC anniversary

yeah I know it says "fabricant" also in french on the fr version of the euro website. There's only one factory that is based in Japan.

The thing is Germany is responsible for whole sales in Europe, Russia, Africa and middle east.

There are blades you can find in the UK that you won't be able to buy in France, like the Hadraw, the european OEM does not exists anymore. As I've already said, BTY does not care for Europe.

https://en.butterfly.tt/ scroll down you'll find the Hadraw
https://fr.butterfly.tt/ scroll down and... no Hadraw. Not sold on the fr version, quite weird eh... ah my bad it's selling but you have to find it !

 

[PoppaChubby]

is it the first omar blade ? if yes then why limited edition, why not direct selling in normal sale?
I did see he using some different colour handle in matches and videos ?

No it's not the first one, I've used the previous Omar Assar blade that was very poorly made in Europe. The logo was oval shaped at the bottom of the handle, that's how you knew those were euro blades.

Its made in Japan and they use Krefeld as the place to distribution

so it is wrong
Manufacturer should be the Japanese address
Distributor should be the Krefeld address
I thought EU has strict laws on marketing

 

[ShakehandJpenCpenEnjoyer]

If i report this to the Verbraucherzentrale (costumer protection), will Butterfly send me one blade for free 🤔🤭?

New one is nicely designed, and also modified as well?

6,2 mm not 5,7mm with zlc because he used innerforce zlc a lot of time

I think I will return it for a lighter one although I wont play it anyway and sell it in 1 or 2 years.
