"Super fake" Butterfly Fan Zhendong Super ALC just appears from Chinese seller in Shopee and i found it very hard to detect, so i hope this is useful information in case you purchase from an unauthorized seller.

Where did you buy this one? I recently just ordered a Viscaria from prott.vip, now I’m worried I bought a fake
No i don't have the fake blade, the photo is from the Chinese seller in Shopee (i am in Vietnam, maybe it will appear in Aliexpress soon).

As i see the FZD series is very hard to fake than Viscaria series, because the the FZD handle has many strip/pattern, if they are mis-aligned, it might easy a fake one.

It's pretty obviously fake. First off the quality control on the finishing is nowhere near that of a real Butterfly. Second the handle and head shape is pretty different than a legit FZD.

Doesn't make sense to fake not popular blade. Also never seen fake blade with Butterfly original box.
Agree !
I think they are both real not fake but one was made on monday and the other on friday late afternoon 🤣
The way to recognize a BTY - fake is when you pay only $ 50 at Aliexpress

Btf is known to cooperate with some manufcs outside Japan. There is one in Vietnam. This given product is genuine, just check for the safety code.

you are being mixed up . BTF does not have a safety code, the numbers are just a serial number.
Just because a product is manufactured in Vietnam (if it really is) does not mean it will then be sold in Vietnam and NEVER for
$ 28.

Hi everyone

Feel uncertain about the blade authenticity ?
All you need is to send a blade's serial number to [email protected]
They will verify authenticity of the product for you.

The opening letter [W] in the present serial number is meant to indicate a production year of 2022.
______________
Be happy all

"""""""They will verify authenticity of the product for you.""""""" NO they will not.

They might not even answer you but if they do they will tell you that the number is simply manufacturers serial number and not for identification.
The prove of it being a
butterfly product is the receipt from one of their authorized dealers.

Come on then ,prove me wrong, the serial number is clearly shown in the above picture so follow the procedure and show us the result
