Kraken addiction is a serious problem, many lives have been destroyed by it, hope you’ll get better. anyways, great comparison, I was definitely not expecting the clone to be that good compared to the OG. I’d still buy the OG if I had the money tho, squid deserves the sales, but I’m too poor lol

[@huri_6]

Video suggestion: Ranking every clone you own

[@CloneSupport]

That’s like 3 clones right now 😂😭. I sell/trade almost everything in order to keep getting more clones to review

[@huri_6]

@@CloneSupport owh lol

[@3.14door6]

I rly like how accurate you describe each of balisongs you own. But have you ever consider reviewing baliplus Chimera? I think it would be very interesting topic, considering that it's titanium for roughly $60

[@CloneSupport]

Maybe in the future

@@CloneSupportwhats is your favorite so far for control and smoth or sound i was planning to get armed sark krake kraken aluminium or the nautilus

[@CloneSupport]

@@ranxxx6448 for control I’d go with the Armed Shark Nautilus, for sound the Armed Shark kraken. I have a good video comparing them both and it covers exactly these topics

I have one the baliplus titanium chimera comes on undersized bushings and has a shit load of loctite in all of the hardware basically all of the hardware bushings included has to be replaced for it to be good

now AS rep vs real

I know this is old but I’m abojt to make a video myself with an as rep vs a real rep once I get the clone sometime this week

[@lilbrogamer12]

How long did it take to arrive? Also if you live in the states which state?

[@CloneSupport]

Takes 2-3 weeks from Kolisong. I don’t live in the states

[@ygrc_]

Ever thinking of doing a review of the AS mako 4.5? I wanna buy a second bali I can use as a beater next to my kraken and am tending towards it but there isn't any comprehensive reviews from what I've seen

[@CloneSupport]

I probably won’t any time soon since I usually only review knives that people lend to me. I don’t buy much any more since most of the spare income goes into my business

[@iusewaffle]

hope u havent bought the mako 4.5 yet coz mine broke on me literally. the blade on the mako snapped off + for beating i recommend the as barebones or the as og4

[@Jupidness]

Hey dude! I love your videos. Been watching the crap out of em the last couple of weeks. I own a Baliplus Kraken V3 and wanted to know if you knew where one would be able to purchase the washers for that specific bali. Aliexpress has spares for the Armed Shark V3 but not for baliplus. I'd like to grab some for future maintenance. I really appreciate any and all help! Keep the dope vids coming my guy!

[@CloneSupport]

So far I haven’t been able to find anywhere that sells them so you may need to ask the seller you bought them from to sell you some washers

[@xxxxxxx82736]

The only dofference i noticed is that the armed shark and china 7075 alu in general is a bit lighter

[@xxxxxxx82736]

Significant*

[@CloneSupport]

Yea holding them side by side I think I can feel it. That would explain the more solid feeling that the squid one has

[@cruxsc4577]

Hey fam, I am planning to buy the clone cause all the balisongs I had were cheap 4 dollar ones that deform by the handles getting closer overtime. With that, does the clone deform overtime? Or the blade deforms cause it has those pins in the handle, sorry if my comment is confusing

[@CloneSupport]

Hi there, this will be much better quality than the cheap 4 dollar ones. No it does not deform over time like the cheap ones and will perform a lot better. I’m sure you will enjoy it

[@cruxsc4577]

been wanting one for a long time been contemplating because of that possible issue, Thank you and Cheers!@@CloneSupport

@@cruxsc4577hey which store did you buy it from ?

[@cruxsc4577]

@@Onjunkrattypeshi yo sorry for the late reply, I didn’t buy from aliexpress I bought it from another site, sadly the seller got banned, but the bali quality I got is decent Edit: I did not get an armed shark krake, got a no brand clone

[@captainjellyfish1791]

have you ever gotten confused on which krakens are real/clone and which versions etc? like generally just mixing them up

[@CloneSupport]

No 😂. The logos are different and I can remember which colour is which. I will say that if I was blindfolded I would probably have a hard time finding the difference between Armed Shark and Squid tho

[@georgedove7862]

fairly new to flipping, only had cheap amazon ones with massive play. Im looking at the Vulp or AS Kraken v3. Which one you rekon is the best shout?

[@CloneSupport]

Personally I’d recommend the Kraken V3 because it’s just a lot better quality and will last longer.

[@hamza-qm7xt]

You are putting shame on armed shark simply by comparing these.

[@pezdispenserqd3105]

Hey, i need your opinion on something. So when i got my armed shark krake raken, i noticed there was a bit of tap, so then i noticed there was a bottle of blue substance in the box it came in (It turned out to be loctite). So being the idiot i am, i used it as oil because that's what i thought it was at the time, when i realized my mistake because the handles got stuck, i disassembled it, got rid of the loctite around everything, and reassembled it. After reassembling it, the tap and play got a bit worse. So I'm wondering if i should just return it and get a new one, or find someone who can fix it, because the flipping experience after i got it reassembled doesn't feel the same as when i first opened it.

[@CloneSupport]

First thing I would try is to return it for a replacement, this will solve the issue. However they might not let you if you have taken it apart and used it. If that’s the case then try tightening it with a good T10 driver and use a thick lubricant like carbon honey or MucOff to try to fill the gap

[@foulninjaplayz5297]

have you ever checked out a Titus kraken clone? I've been seeing a few reviews praising it but I'm not sure whether it's a good idea because it's still so few and I'd like to hear a more proper review from someone as experienced as you are with the clones

[@CloneSupport]

I haven’t but I have a few friends who have tried them and I haven’t heard good things. Bad build quality

[@nagood2]

I have a Silver Spiral Bowie kraken by Titus. It's $40 but definitely feels amazing and has insane tolerances and durability. It's honestly one of my best balisongs, regardless of price. If you're looking to get the Titus Trainer though I hear armed shark makes better trainers.

[@adr1ant]

its not as good as the armed shark or baliplus
