The Outerforce CAF Table Tennis Blade from Butterfly is designed to provide an excellent balance of control and speed, making it a great choice for developing players and those transitioning to a blade with composite materials. Built with Control Assist Fiber (CAF) technology, the blade offers a stable feel and extended dwell time to help players maintain precision during rallies.
The blade construction features 5 wood plies combined with 2 CAF layers, creating a structure that delivers controlled rebound while maintaining the natural touch of an all-wood blade. This design allows players to produce consistent shots while still generating sufficient speed for offensive play.
With its moderate speed characteristics, the Outerforce CAF is especially suitable for players who prefer close-to-the-table play and controlled offensive techniques. The flexible CAF layers help enhance ball control and stability, supporting accurate placement and improved confidence during rallies.
The blade has a regular head size of 157 × 150 mm and a thickness of 6.3 mm, providing a balanced feel during both attacking and controlled shots. With an average weight of approximately 85 g, it offers comfortable handling for extended play.
This version features the AN (Anatomic) handle, designed to fit naturally in the hand for improved grip comfort and stability. The Outerforce CAF series is widely recommended for players upgrading from entry-level blades or looking for their first composite blade with enhanced control.
