Butterfly Senkoh-5

All-wood

Great blade.

Using Sriver EL on forehand and Solcion on back hand.

Has two distinctive gears:

  • Slow for touch shot and slow spinny loop
  • Very fast when loop and flat hit

Traditional penhold punch block is also very fast and aggressive.

RPB is also very spinny and fast.

The only thing not satisfactory with this blade is the short blade length. The short blade length makes it a little difficult to cover wide balls and sometimes causes the ball to hit the finger when executing rpb.

It is hopeful that Butterfly will make a version of Senkoh with Senkoh 5 wood construction but with a longer blade surface. Making it two-sided out of the box would also be great.

One of the best penhold blades I have come across, next to the Cypress-S. This is my backup blade with Sriver on both sides.
