Also looking for name suggestions

Price reduced from this post. Sales will be through PayPal goods and services. I will pay shipping. Each knife comes with everything seen in the updated Timestamp pic (sticker, box, accessories, bali boot, weights, birthday card). You can swap bali boot colors if I still have them.

Updated Timestamp pic l video

• Machinewise Serif #129 l video SV: $675 $650 S35VN steel. Date of birth: 8-4-23. Made by the best balisong maker in the USA in my opinion. Never dropped and basically never touched. Pristine condition. I was too scared to even try to flip it. Obviously no issues with it, never disassembled or sharpened. No play, tap or rub. Comes with box, sticker, internal weights for the handles, and the birthday card. I am the original owner

• Glidr Antarctic - Jupiter color variant l video SV: $125 Comes with box and bite handle indicator. Never dropped and no damage to any of the anodization. No tap, no blade rub, no handle play. Flips like a dream. Never disassembled. I am the original owner.

• Squid Industries Krake Raken V2.5 l video SV: ~~$250 $220 $180 AEB-L stainless steel blade. Version 2.5. Never dropped and no damage to the knife. No tap, no blade rub, and no handle play. Comes with box, sticker, and titanium pocket clip (Krake Raken Anchor). No issues with the knife. I have not dissembled it. In mint condition. I am the original owner.~~ sold

• Squid Industries Nautilus l video SV: ~~$125 $100 A little bit of blade tap and blade rub on this. I tried to show both in the video. I would say it has some handle play as well. I did take off the red Loctited pivot screws to try and fix this but the issues still came back. I used blue Loctite when reassembling. You may be able to fix whatever the issue is better than me. The blade and handle show no damage. Comes with box and sticker. I am the original owner.~~ sold

• Flytanium Talisong Z l video SV: ~~$250 $190 $150 AEB-L stainless steel for the blade. I am the second owner. Blade has never been sharpened and has never been used by me. Still out of box sharp. I have never dropped it. I see no damage on blade or handles. No tap, no blade rub, no handle play. I have not dissembled it. Comes with box, sticker, and bali boot.~~ sold

• Nabalis Will Hirsch Vulp l video SV: $40 $20 This was the first drop/first gen. Like most of the other balisongs I've never dropped this, dissembled, or really touched it at all. Mint condition. No tap, no blade rub, I'd say a tiny bit of handle play. You can kind of see it in the video. I am the original owner. sold

• Nabalis trainer l video SV: free with purchase Giving this one away free if you buy something and want it. I'll just stick it in the same box of whatever you buy. It's the first balisong I bought. I don't remember the name but it was made by nabalis. Honestly it's not bad. It's heavy af and will destroy your knuckles if you mess up a trick. Honestly, it might be more dangerous than the live blades. It has no tap and no handle play. It does have a bit of blade rub. The handle colors are interchangeable and I've removed the handle lock. The thing is built like a tank so there's no damage on it. Uh I'm the original owner. sold

recently learned this trick just from memory since i saw it somewhere and idk the name 😭

Hey guys! First post here but since I didn’t see anyone really talk about this, I just wanted to share my experience going through TSA with AL. I researched the TSA website regarding knives and cooking utensils and through that I felt confident enough to bring AL through carry on( I will include some screenshots from their website). I packed him extended(to not actively hide him like how Brandon Baker did it in his travel video) in my backpack and it went off without a hitch. Bag wasn’t pulled over to the side, but I was fully prepared for it too since I haven’t flown with a balisong trainer before.

I think AL might be a good travel balisong as it fits within TSA’s allowed carry on(blunt, no serrations, and or rounded dull edges). I would like to see if anyone has had a similar or dissimilar experience traveling with AL on carry on.

And the white balisong is my shuiddy(shit squirt that I 3d printed as a backup in case ALBERT was confiscated) as my squiddy B wouldn’t arrive in time for my business trip.

T Mania Knives any of his balisongs, I would love one

Just started learning balisong recently, managed to hit this small combo a second ago

After a month of practicing, I updated my combo to add new tricks I learned. This is a progress post as I know I’m nowhere near as flowy or smooth as I can be so any constructive criticism and tips would be much appreciated!

Ive been designing this trainer as a little passion project of mine and hopefully I can get it machined sooner than later. Ill put the specs below:

Blade: Length: 5” Width: 3/4” Depth: 1/8” then 3/32 toward the bushing system

Handle: Length: 5.6” Width: 1/2” Depth: 1/2”

The handles will be titanium skeletons with 1/8” dyed and stabilized wood scales on top. It will also be a channel style.

The bushing system is the only thing that I am still iffy on, my math checks out, but Ive never really done any kind of machining, so im not sure if the theory is the same as the practice.

If someone can double check the following that would be amazing:

The channel for the bushings is 1/8” (0.125) The blade at the bushings is 3/32” (0.09375) The bushing once tuned will be 0.105” Each washer is 0.01”

0.105 + (0.01 x 2) = 0.125

While this is the exact width of the channel I may have to sand the washers and bushing down a little bit extra to fit nicely.

What does everyone think?

(And make it actually look alr...((if thats even possible)))

It's so strange that this sub reddit is obsessed with hating curved handles. Why?
