hey hey hey...! !! has CEO of dawei ever heard of kiso hinoki ? forget about zylon...

dawei's best product so far is cole ely... he can even sell even a nylon blade competing with zylon so long it has a dawei logo on it. and he will be able to sell more of those with his knowledge and great service.

since i have both wavestone and amultart .... with due respect, wavestone is a pretty nice arylate carbon blade..mine was not better than my t-8 though.

but amultart is a different animal alltogether. it has a nice cushioned feeling in spite of the speed. what sets it apart is it's pretty slow and non-bouncy on soft touches (unlike any other speedy carbon blade) but quite buoyant in bigger faster strokes.

wavestone : amultart = ford : ferrari ......

both will get you there... and even if ford is no match for ferrari in performance, at 1/15th the cost its still the most rational choice.

okay i think butterfly sells the soft amultarts in japan.. and hardens them when they send them to US

"Amultart
The Amultart ZL Carbon is a hybrid of Butterfly’s industry leading Carbon Technology with our new ZL fiber. The resulting blade has great speed, but holds the ball a little longer than the normal carbon fiber making the production of heavy topspin easier.

Speed: 10.2 Control: 7.6 Feel: Hard "

butterfly usa seem to have their own idea on everything.

I also think what they call "hard" is actually just blade stiffness. I mean, fancy calling the Iolite a hard blade. That's just ridiculous.

ha ha ...i was pulling your..oops... dawei's legs ..




good one...




you got me wrong on this.. i was referring to the kiso hinoki top ply of amultart... not kiso hinoki one ply blades. In fact even though mizutani and amultart are pretty similar in construction... i feel what makes the striking differenceis a slightly thick hinoki outer ply of amultart against limba outer ply of MJ.



now now.. this time try at your own risk ... and don't hold me responsible. but yeah i am quite confident after three days of play. it is magical in its versatility without compromising an inch of power.

i got to play with a friend's amultart which is fitted with t05 on both sides...
at first didn't feel right, but few minutes into it the setup becomes better and better...
i could play my game/style with small adjustments...
but only tried it for a short 5-0 match with slightly lower level player...
for me amultart was one of those blades that didn't feel nice at first but gets better after awhile...

can't wait to try mine with my usual rubbers...

You make some very good points there Debraj. Have you tried a classic Gergerly? I'm wondering how it compares with the Amultart.

unfortunately not.. but off late butterfly had been to some extent accurate in their claimed property values.

Gergely speed 9.9 control 6.8 OFF+ 3W/2C wt 93 thickness 6.4
Amultart speed 10.2 control 7.6 OFF+ 3W/2 ZLC wt 88 thickness 7.1

i don't see much similarity. i have played with about 15 different carbon or carbon composite blades, frankly I am myself surprised that this blade is significantly different in its level of control in spite and crisp feel at such high speed. i have played 4 times so far... and only glitch i need to take care of is a little head heaviness with max tenergy 05 on both sides.

I am also a big fan of the Amultart and I actually think it is one of the best blade out there for LPs. The Kiso Hinoki gives it the feel and touch that LP players crave. Butterfly Japan probably describe the blade as soft because of the Kiso Hinoki top layer. It is soft when compared with the top ply of say, a Primorac Carbon. Soft feeling blades tend to feel slow but not the Amultart. It has a very good first speed but the second gear is even better. An accomplished top spin player would love this blade which has been described as the closest that a muti ply blade can play like a top notch single ply Jpen Kiso Hinoki blade.

may be that's a clue on why it feels less bouncy in short game... considering its OFF+ power loops.

Wow, my wife just bought me Butterfly Amultart ZL blade for my birthday.
I hadn't heard anything about it (but noted it cost as much as all my other blades put together!) so I did a search on oneofakindtrading forum and discovered this thread. After reading the original post, I can't wait to try it out! I want to develop my game as a two-wing looper and also concentrate on my short game (short pushes and flips) and this sounds just the ticket. Not sure if I want to go the way of Tenergy rubbers though...such expensive rubbers if you want to keep replacing them...generally what kind of rubbers suit this blade? Better to go with hard sponge + tacky or more soft catapulty sort of rubbers?

Also, has anyone else tried them out and what are your impressions?

Cheers
PK

I played a guy a month back using tenergy 05 on both sides of an amultart.

It was a bit fast for him.

Yeah i played a gut with a Mazunov and Tenergy on both sides and again it was too fast for him. got some good shots in but not enough

Loving the sound of the Amultart more and more. More speed than the Gergely. More control than the Gergely. Sounds like my next logical blade LOL. Twice the price of my Gergely...hmmm! It will take a while!
