Fred Perrin's Balisong Story

Nemo,

My God there are some truly beautiful knives there!! I must admit, your personal balisong is a KILLER! Really dig that blade shape man. And that La Griffe/Bali...wow. Sweet stuff. Thanks for sharing!
 
Hi Nemo
You and Fred haven't posted in awhile so it is good to know you guys are still at it. As usual a top notch article and review it made the wait worth it.

Nemo,

Thanks for the Great Photos of all of those Balisongs. Great historical information too!

I like Fred's ideas, the Balisong made of G-10 and the one made to fit into a wallet. Is he still making those and if he is what is their cost in US Dollars?
 
Donna,

Great pictures and some interresting information, thanks!

Nemo, will Fred be add the Paris knifeshow in September? Do you no where this show will be or where I can get more info on this show? Thanks!
 
Thank you so much for sharing this. It is truly a fine piece of work.

A David Boye dendritic cobalt bali. Wow.

 
Nemo, is making a balisong about the difficulty as making a liner lock folder? I had thought about trying to make one one of the days but have never seen that much on the building of them. One of my students had an inexpensive one and demonstrated the opening and closing swing for me. Just wondering was all. They seem to range in size quite a bit. They do look good and thanks for sharing the pics.

Ray,

I think it's much easier to do a Balisong than any other locking folders !

I would love to see a Raker Lil Blue Balisong !

cheers,
JM
 
Nemo, Maybe Fred might bring a paper pattern for one or I can talk to him at the show and maybe figure it out. There are bound to be some important points to consider when making one that will work well.
