I played with Klampar carbon tamca 5000 by Butterfly but today this blade lost their attributes because he is 34 years old. May be in the past someone play with this blade and may recommend very similar blade to Klampar carbon tamca 5000 ?

I think it’s 5-ply with the kiri core and hinoki outer plies. Donic Waldner Legend Carbon has the similar composition, weight and thickness. I have played a few times with Klampar but never with Donic, so I can’t tell you how it plays exactly.

My team mate is using a Klampar and has a spare one. Crazy hitter with SP on the BH. Neither he nor we remember how the blades played as new(30+ years ago), but to sum it up-it is one hell of a blade. We all envy him for the blades and the fact that he never ever thought of changing his blade for more than 30 years and still swearing by it

Thanks for your answer, in BH I have tenergy 05 and feel same as you team mate. Spine,speed, blocks excellent. But FH with Tenergy 05 I feel every touch differently. What exactly rubbers have your team mate in BH and FH. He play close to table ?

I think all the Tamca (TAMasu CArbon) 5000 blades had/have the same construction (if what I remember from the old Butterfly catalogs was correct). Don't they still make some of them? This was back when all carbon blades were fast and hard. Thick layers right below the outer wood ply. None of this "soft carbon" or "inner layer" stuff. The advertising claimed they had big sweet spots.

Probably Schlager carbon light fitt the bill. Or Xiom Ignito....When should be a bit slower , than Joola Rossi Emotion.
I think but , that when is your Klampar Tamca 5000 OK , it is no reason to change it.
My friend has new repared old Tamca 5000 (less next name). It was blade from former slowakisch national player. It was only repaired on the edges , who it was damaged.
This blade with Victas V-01 both sides played in my hand very well...
