Is there a butterfly reversible blade?

I posted in your other thread with a more thorough explanation of the matter, but for RPB and for a play style as you described yours, you really ought to be using a Cpen. Jpens are pretty much exclusively for driving and looping and mid and long distance (and fishing, but the point being that they're just not quick attack blades). The reversible ones are just made for twiddling and still won't work well for RPB. It'll be much easier to get a light Cpen as well, on top of it just being better for what your equipment goals are.

I'm not the BTY expert, but as far as I know, no BTY reversible blade as of yet...

There is as least one, Laphuta is the name I think, but the handle looks a bit different from regular reversible Jpens. It kinda curves back out after the dip in the middle.

Lapuhta (a funny name because in spanish the phrase means "the prostitute") is an interesting blade. Two guys in my club uses it (or at least something that looks exactly like it). It looks like it has better dimensions than the violin r-h but it is only rated All+.

It's an Arylate-Carbon.

Anyway, I think Arylate-Carbon should be same as Nittaku G-Carbon.

But I think this type of glass fibre carbon blades should be weaker than just carbon blades.

What do you think? I just got a chance to bounce a ball on the blade itself. Rather not so bouncy! Only a few bounce and the ball would come to a nice rest. Looks like a lot of vibration and power is absorbed into the blade.
