One blade, drawn as technical linework at real shakehand proportions. The laminated edge along the crown and right rim exposes every ply boundary in the stack. Edge depth is illustrative because physical veneer thickness is not published.

About this blade
Butterfly M. Maze is a 7-ply blade built around ALC fibre placed outer, with Limba on the playing surface and a Kiri core. Limba in the outer layer: Soft, open-grained outer veneer — long dwell, a wooden feel and easy spin on slow strokes. Kiri in the core: Paulownia core — extremely light, damping the stack and slowing the blade down for control. ALC in the fibre layer: Arylate-carbon — stiffens the stack and enlarges the sweet spot while keeping a wooden feel. Physically it measures 5.9 mm thick, around 89 g. Butterfly positions it for off play.
TTDNA ratings

Construction
Material properties
Playing profile
A TTDNA blade rating measures how much of the named characteristic a blade has. For descriptive rows — flex, stiffness, vibration, head heaviness, weight, thickness, carbon feel, softness, technique requirement, spin sensitivity — a higher number means more, not better.
TTDNA ratings are normalized comparison values, not laboratory measurements. They are built from published specifications, technical sources and structured product evidence, converted to one 0–100 scale. Where a directly comparable measurement is unavailable, the value is an evidence-based estimate. Overall-style scores are composites of several characteristics. Methodology
