Help Me Identify my knife

[r3vc0]

I purchased a bali (if you want to call it that) recently. I've never seen another like it. Instead of that handles closing to "cup" the blades, the handles fold to "sandwich" the blades and when open the lie flush up against each other. Does anyone know what style of blade this is called?

Unique, perhaps. Boker makes one. This could be it, or a clone.

I'm going to move this from the Balisong / Butterfly Knife forum to the General Knife Discussion.

thanks. i got it at a biker rally. i just thought it looked cool. didn't know if there was a name for this style of bali...

not sure - it looks cool though.

mine (chinese one) was of extremely poor quality, it broke while slicing pizza... gave its remnants away ((

It is not really a balisong. It does not operate in the same manner..

Made for Master Cutlery. Cheap Chinese production. Fun anyway.

this is usually marketed to balisong fans. but its a garbage knife.

i wouldnt try to use it. those pins are way to thin to handle any kind of use or flipping.

I've heard them called a sidewinder before.
Basically, a cheap novelty knife that isn't built to be used, but can be a fun item for $10 or less.

I had no idea.

What does Boker call it? Some more information or maybe a link would be very interesting.
