 Topic: Golden Edition of Butterfly ViscariaPosted: 08/01/2018 at 1:50am |
|
Butterfly China is offering a kind of Limited Edition of the Viscaria, with special package, golden tag under the handle (like seen on Yoshimura Limited) and without a lens in the handle.
    It looks like the former Custom-Made Viscaria, but with golden tag. The price seems to be round about 250€ or 300$. Unfortunately I am not able to understand chinese language and do not find a button to change the language. Also I don't think, that they deliver to other countries, for example to Europe. My question: is there any chinese member, who can help me to buy two of these blades and ship them to Germany? |

i would say the AN and CS version are more preferable for collectors as they are never heard off. cs version looks like has a thickness of 5.7mm not 7.0 as Taksim

Don’t tell Antuan, or all the ST handle will be sold out soon.

Unfortunately, the CS version has the same blade shape as the Timo Boll CS series, which are shorter than the Innerforce and ZJK series (which resemble the DHS / Yasaka blade shape). Not sure anyone would play with their Viscaria Golden though :)

very clever gimmick to fleece the masses.
What's next?, platinum edition, diamond edition, super duper titanium alloy tag edition? FdT |

I have to say that the ones I had that were custom made were disappointing for a lot of reasons compared to the best of the ones I just bought either from Megaspin or from people here. Unless you are looking for a special handle shape I would be skeptical that you are getting anything better.

Hey we have all these blue boxes left over from the custom shop and all these gold tags from the Yoshimura blade what do we do with them? Slap them on a 20 year old blade and double the price hahaha oh and make a few different handle types so everyone buys....

If BTY limit the product run to 100 of each handle shape...now you are talking. But wait, that's just the first series. There will be a million series's to follow.

ST & FL (FL hopefully should be as good as ZJK ALC's FL, not as sissy as FL of TBS & MMaze) are too common. AN would be very comfy for my taste. I'm waiting..Ryan.

If you want black tag quality and feel and don't want to be ripped off, you should try Double Day (M.I.T.) as I believe they were responsible for making all the carbon black tag blades before Butterfly changed the factory and went to silver tag.
The Speed King is better than any Boll ZLC in my opinion, I have just ordered a Mercury SZLC which has the same composition as a Garaydia ZLC but replaces the ZLC with SZLC  .Blades come smooth as butter, they never chip or break (built like tanks) and the veneers never splinter, best craftsmanship I have ever seen from any blade maker. Their version of the Boll ALC is the best to try out first and it is only $73! They still nail the tag on the bottom the same as the black tags, it just doesn't say Butterfly anymore. Link below: |
