EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

These are my usual Vermont woods and fields knives which I carried today here on Cape as I worked a bit on yard clean-up, raked out some driveway ruts, got the outside water back on and hoses out, and gave the Charger a good post-winter rinse down. The forecast has it raining overnight and tomorrow, so I'll wait 'til Friday to give it a good Spring cleaning inside and out.

What bali is that? As someone who likes to flip my knives, am I missing out? I've always thought they look cool and seem like a lot of fun, I'm not really sure what's been keeping me from getting one
That's an LDY Sirius V3.
They are now up to Series 4.5.
Made in China but NOT a clone or knockoff- original designs made by LDY. I have a couple others: Squid Industries Krake Raken and a MachineWise Serif.

Balisongs are great and every knife nerd should have a couple/few. Many balisongs now come with an additional "Trainer" blade that won't cut you when you try to do dumb stuff. I highly encourage using a trainer when first starting out. Either way when you flip a live blade you're gonna get cut, eventually.

Remind anyone who might be interested that these things need a lot of practice before they flip as easily as it looks on YouTube. I recently bought a balisong bottle opener just for giggles, and I sucked so bad with it, it hasn’t been out of the box since the first day. I’m just glad I didn’t wast more money on an actual knife.
