I second this, the only thing that makes Squiddy worth to get is it's safe to carry to the airport and travel, but if you willing to spend a bit more, you can get other versions which actually has weight and some grip to it, I am a complete beginner but I agree that Squiddy is not good as the very first balisong, rather a fun toy for experience flippers.

To new flippers, nowadays there are fair alternatives to buying clones for the same price point. That clone replicant is about 90 bucks, use that money on an orion v1.5. They flip very well, come with the trainer and live blade as well as replacement hardware, and youd be supporting a real maker. We're pretty past the point of assuming clones are the way to go if you dont have money, just look around a little and youll find something nice and real. Great video btw 👍

If you wont do it on your own something has to force you in understanding how grossly overpriced all these knifes are, and if you ask me all "real makers" should reconsider they're pricing. I am truly sorry but some monumental BS like 800$ - 1000$ - 1200$ for a balisong? 😅 u better believe i'm getting a clone an exact replica of that same knife for 60-150$ bucks and it's gonna flip the same if not better

Just ordered one based on this video and example shown alone. Appreciated! Too bad you didn't get commission for it but here... take this like and a sub instead. The knife looks perfectly acceptable with looks, balance, weight and has a nice sound to it too. I'll look forward to trying this one out. Thank you. I've had a blemished white Squiddy for a while now but the balance just isn't quite right with it for a lot of tricks I've tried to do. Especially like the one you showed in the video here with the spin with the handle and blade. I have loads of trouble trying to do that with it. Couldn't get the tension of the handles and blade right enough to make that any easier, so instead I opted for a slightly looser fit, just enough to where it doesn't bind at all.

Nice work on the video, I do agree somewhat with buying a live blade instead of a trainer however I do think if the trainer does punish you enough to let you know when you do something wrong it may not be to bad having a trainer, mostly something like the prysma pro where it for me at least digs into my finger, but overall live blades can definitely do more

Armed shark rep has good bushings. Mine came with no tap. If youre gonna get a rep clone, get an armed shark as opposed to baliplus. You can mod the AS version just like the baliplus and they sell carbon fiber channel spacers too.
@hamza-qm7xt3 ай бұрын

The squiddy definitely needs the eye weights mode to be usable, but once you do it becomes pretty good as a travel bali since you can go through airport security with it. I just use brass grub screws (size M5 x 4mm) and they just screw right in. But yeah the Canyon is probably a better starting place if you don't care about flying and also don't mind getting stabbed when learning aerials

People get the squiddy because you can use and get it imported in almost any country, as well as its completely unthreatening, plastic, light, and cheap. So people get squiddies not for performance but for the fact that its less a knife, more a toy.
@1badspeed615 күн бұрын
I hear what your saying, but I don't agree with the sentiment at all. There are ways to get balisongs in EVERY country. And the squiddy shipped to the EU or something will always be more expensive than something shipped from China. It being plastic makes it more of a waste of money in my opinion as well. Just get a canyon for 20 dollars less

I respectfully disagree, aluminum is a worse material in every way besides weight. The durability and the slippery nature of the metal alone turns me off to the vulp. Also the vulp is designed to be more handle biased (more handle heavy than biased), which is the opposite of what most flippers like now a days. The canyon is far superior in every way besides weight.
