Sniperboy,
Remember when you wandered over to the Emerson Knives Forum and posted the question as to the possibility of Emerson making Balisongs? I remember that the response from my fellow forumites was less than receptive. Well I just thought that I'd share this with you.

Great work! Thanks to all for posting this info; nice to see others initial work.......
 
actually the credit to bravery should be given to afee for that.. he was the one who started the thread.. I jumped in to wag shame to the rest of your foumite colleagues

but I had read only a few weeks later in an article in Blade or Tac knives about Ernie's first knife being a Balisong, by then the thread had died.

Still it is very ironic / romantic, to see that a Maker of Mr. Emrson's stature be rooted in the Balisong.

Overall I think the Emerson crowd (with the fanaticity (?) of foaming sharks - which is a good thing seriously)

is overall a nice crowd of very helpful people. It's fun to hang out there. THenka for sharing the pic.
