Are these the GEMINI balisongs?

You weren't supposed to find that until Monday.

Ok, cat's out of the bag as they say.

Yes, those are CAD renderings of what the Gemini Balisongs will approximately look like.

Exciting, eh?

I saw these exact same pics a few weeks ago, got it from a link in another forum. Don't know why these were supposed to be secret 'til Monday though.

BTW, Welcome to the Forums Jojo!

Those pics have been up since Darrel put up the latest revision of his web site I believe, about a month ago.
 
I noticed that it also stated that the balisongs were about one year away at this point!

Is it possible to get the skeleton handle with the holes a bit more rounded on them? Somewhat like what I have on the top knife in the photo below?

When I first saw the Gemini, I thought it looked like a Jaguar with a bit of a sinister twist to it. But when you compare them side by side, they really are totally different. The very thing I don't like about the Jaguar is that it's a big fat bulky clumsy knife. It does not feel like a tool in my hands at all. After 25 years of carpentry, I know what a tool is supposed to feel like.

The Gemini looks like it was designed by someone who has tools in their hand all the time, and knows what they are supposed to feel like. It's not so narrow in the middle and wide at the ends & the balance looks to be real good on it. I can see why people cannot wait to get a hold of one, to flip it around and put it through it's paces. It looks like the Gemini is not only going to be good looking, but very functional as well.

What I esp. like is the way it looks like it's in motion, even when it's just sitting there. It looks like a knife that says: I am ready for action, before you even pick it up.

*drools*

Very sweet looking . . . The blade shape and way the skeletonizing and inlays are done really make them look unique.
