It would be nice if there would be some basic info readily available here. E.g. a pinned post or just some links in the sidebar.

Questions in my head right now:

• What to look for when buying balisongs?
  • Materials
  • Bearings or no?
  • Latch or no?
  • Size
  • Weight
• Some concrete recommendations
  • Training
  • Something for utility, not just flipping
  • Available outside US too
• Guides or videos for getting started
• Anything you wish you had known back in the day..

Apparently my cousin's best friend works marketing for Squid Industries and is Lucas's gf. So they sent me some stickers and some other goodies. Thanks Ashley!

Every time I tune my balisong, there is tap. If I tighten too hard then the handles become stiff. Is there a better technique or tips and tricks to achieve better resilts?

Edit: I find that it's better to just tweak it in very small amounts. Still, if there's a better technique to getting results in faster times, let me know. I've seen squidindustries's videos on it and they seem to tune balisongs very quick.

Nice to see someone beat me to it. Here's a picture of my squidtrainer after being tuned.

Created a new community for buying/selling/trading, check it out! https://reddthat.com/c/balisongmarketplace

Currently no rules and no mods, but I'll/we'll spruce it up ASAP lol

Love this knife and I love to show it off even more

Reddit sucks, Instagram sucks, let's see if we can build a better online balisong community here!
