no if you don't have enuf $$$$, yes if $$$$ is not the issue for u and yes also if your ej bugs are getting the best of you....For me personally no..but I got a better deal (TB ZLC ST) for the same amount of $$$$ you would see/find recently in the FS section of this forum....Also on top of that n w/ the same amount of $$$$ I could get a Mizutani Jun FL hardly used as well.... You must know where to look for it and from whom......Most inportantly....
- be patience
- your negotiation skill is a factor as well
- don't give in to your nasty ej-ism..
and good luck

Once I had a TBS, and then I bought an ALC. They were similar enough that I started to wonder why I needed both of them. If you like to collect, or want 2 of the same blade, then get the ALC, otherwise stick with the TBS.

zlc and zlf are different blades than alc. And alc is different from tbs. but alc is more like tbs than zlc and zlf. if you like tbs can give a try to an alc. i like tb alc very much. however i do not like zlc. |

ALC is similar but noticably faster then the TBS.
Because of that my forhand is better with the ALC but my backhand is better with the TBS (control). |

TBS has slightly softer feel. It is slightly slower.

TBS is better at blocking and TB ZLF is a very good looping blade. |

zlf feels so much nicer in the hand, the grip and thinness of the blade is the absolute perfect dimensions for my hands (smaller than average)
having said that I still havent found the right rubbers for the zlf
05 too dwelly not enough power cant smash or punch to easy to get to my shots.
please butterfly give me the bloody fx versions for crying out loud!!!!!!!
