First Balisong ;)

Well this is the first completed one I have done in several years. Got frustrated and just quit making em awhile back. The challenge kept beckoning me back.
Have a couple more on the bench they will hopefully be an improvement.
This one is definetly a Practice Blade, but ehhh ya gotta start somewhere.

I really like that blade shape, looks very useful... not so sure about the handle material...;)
 
A most interesting knife with an unusual blade for a knife in that styling at least to me !!! Frank
 
This one is strictly a practice blade so hence the handle material, it will never leave the shop.
It was more about getting the right material combinations and dimensions figured out.
It has developed a whole new dimension of respect for those who choose to make Balisongs for a living.
