Blade Classifications

Butterfly groups each of their blades into one of seven different categories. These categories are an easy way to determine if the blade is right for your style of play. They are:

• [OFF+] For all out offensive play without compromise.


• [OFF] For direct offensive play with much spin, speed and power.


• [OFF–] For medium offensive play with much spin, speed and power.


• [ALL+] For offensive all-round play mixing shots with topspin shots of variable spin.


• [ALL] For all-round players who mix attack and control shots in rallies


• [ALL-] For all-round players who emphasize control and consistency from all distances


• [DEF] For traditional defense with emphasis on the chop from a far distance
