I think that there is an Amultart SI (and some other newer blades from Bty, but I can't remember which)...

Possible, if it wasn't Butterfly.
 Sorry, I'm totally off-topic. I don't want to derail this thread. Please ignore me and carry on.

I think that I have also seen it at Butterflyonline months ago and a photo of the handle also. There is an older thread about this handle, so you may find more information there...

| There was a time when handles were offered with flare on one side and straight on the other. I think Butterfly and Asti both offered this in the past, I haven't seen it in years. |

SI : Straight Inclined.. the handle is like a straight handle from the blade head. then on the bottom on the handle it become more wide like Flared (FL) handle. so it is a more skinny version of FL handle.. ------------- 'Nobody is Perfect. I am Nobody' |

SI = Straight Inclined SI is a round straight handle. ST = Straight ST is straight, but it has square feel of the handle. I like the ST better. NOTE: This system is being used by Butterfly ONLY. I haven't seen any other manufacturer using this system. ------------- SPEEDY Viscaria Super ALC ST JOOLA Rhyzen CMD(FH) Nittaku Moristo SP (BH) |

SI = Straight Incline. At the bottom of the handle it is just like a ST handle. When you get towards the blade, the handle gets flatter, like an oval vs. a circle or square. The top of a Butterfly SI blade feels like a stiga ST blade. If you lay the blade on a table and look straight down, it looks like a ST blade, but from the side you can see it gets flatter towards the blade. I don't know why they do this. Cuts down the weight? for smaller hands? |

You have to look at the side view to notice. from that view it is straight. but from the side you can see it taper towards the blade. |

Except that an SI handle is smaller than a ST handle. |

Yea at first it's hardly noticeable side by side from the side view until I look at the top of the handle. ST handle is fat all the way bottom to top. Hotlinking!
