[@lordofthefrogs1646]

Cast zinc handles, no way to adjust blade play, absolute trash grinds on the blade. Not a knife you'd want to get.

[@bluestscrew7833]

@@PenjaminFranklinn Dude, it's less than $40 with shipping, what do you expect? Also these knives are pretty tough, people treat the knives like trash and then they end up breaking. Give some care and thought it may last up to a year or more surprisingly. And to note some Bear & Sons knives (particularly Bear OPS in this case), are amazing, like the B-800.

[@PenjaminFranklinn]

@@bluestscrew7833 actually my friend has a bear ops b400, that thing is kind of a tank and it flips pretty dang well too. its still worth investing in a more expensive balisong imo for flipping and durability. i had a squid trainer a bit ago and for $150 it would not break, and i beat it.

He doesnt know how to flip, if anyone here actually knows how to use a butterfly knife you would know he is holding the bite handle half the time (the side the blade is sharp) therefore the blade must be dull or he would have cut himself multiple times

They aren't bad knifes. I don't know what your expectations of a "Good Knife" is, but these are to me. You do better.

[@blueman796]

@@grimssouls3897 They're really the only durable balisong in the 100 dollar market. I just would like them to use a better base steel like 440c, 154cm or 14c28n instead of their mystery 440(440a). Or learn to thin out their 1095 blades. I own two and they're reasonably good flippers, but poor knives for cutting and slicing.

I think they are press fit correct? anyways would i need to remove whole bite handle to get the latch? or is there a specific/easier way i could remove it? If any 1 has answers to any of these questions please let me know. Thank u to all who help me out

[@essenkillerthezombiektz5026]

Yes balisongs where first made in the Philippines about 1200 years ago

[@jamesmgordon83]

The shear quantity of the pieces being produced and the way they were thrown around, just make the knives look/seem meaningless to me. I think it's sometimes best for the customers to NOT know how "the sausage is made." So much automation and so little effort putting these knives together. Really hard to see how a owner would feel like they're getting something special after watching the video. I'm not a fan of balisongs, so what the hell do I know... lol

[@eachday9538]

I kind of had the opposite reaction. With the way automation is heading I thought it was endearing how much humans were involved in the process, especially given that the factory is located in a first world country. Also, I think there is a certain appeal to mass produced objects of thoughtful economical design and a fair price. Not saying that is necessarily the case in this example, but in general.

[@SpacedudeGFX]

you are dead on. these knives are far from quality

[@lloydforger2920]

The quality will not be top notch. No heat treatment no hammering on the blades. The steel was punch out instead of traditional which affect the blade's quality

[@wnterbird2976]

Hellhound878 or it IS better to know “how sausages are made”. So that you can choose/ make decisions with all the knowledge on the subject if you want to consume the product. Goes for balisongs. Gotta know how they were made to appreciate good ones.

This is very cool, however, I prefer the Filipino made ones more. This is pretty cool to see though.

[@nalujuk]

My Bear and Son bali has a similar handle and a damascus steel (looking) blade and the handle is wayyy to soft. Whatever the handle is made of can be bent with two hands and will crumble with pretty much any force. Getting a BRS or a Benchmade is worth the extra penny. Bear and Son is disappointing

[@burritocat5076]

The handle is made of fucking zinc. It wouldve been better if they used aluminum or steel.

[@burritocat5076]

@unrepeatable raddish wdym only a few? If you look at b&s section on bladehq, almost all of their balis are the ones shown in the video, which has zinc handles. Sure some are alum, but not most of them.
