This Pacific Cutlery, and Valor were my first back in 1985, and they are still my top 2 fav's. I know some of you have some nice customs, so lets see em'.
 
Just two, huh?

Well, probably this Pacific Cutlery Custom,

Dawkind, since you don't have your Scimitar up there as one of your favorites just send it to me and it'll become my favorite. Of course if Edgefinder wants to send me his Scimitar I won't say no either. :D
 
Hmmm....

How 'bout this, with a 5+ inch blade; scrimmed handles (dragon on one side, nude on other); aluminum body; by Walter Erickson

And of course what I consider to be the nicest balisong I've ever handled; by Mauricio Dobruski

Just have to mention a third, acquired through the balisong collector himself; an incredible stiletto by Pabu cutlery...the blade made from a file the name of which the maker left perfectly on the tang! The fit and finish on this knife is incredible...one of those that really has an aura!!

At least until my Monarch comes in.
 
Hell, I can see it clearly now; I got so worked up when I saw that bunch of FINE balis that I couldn't see! I've also got to say that is the finest group of Lums I've ever seen in one place! Love that dagger......... I'll think about the Imada........;)
 
Nice collection guys :)

Hey, Dragoon1 whats that stuff in that mixing bowl??
 
hmm...my guess would be garlic, bit o salt and a touch of oil...

My current fave is my Perrin Custom bali shown here:

Oddly enough I had it up for sale several weeks ago in order to raise money for my Ryan Biohazard M1 (my dream knife), but the money never arrived for the Perrin and therefore the deal on it fell through. So maybe fate intervened and I'm destined to keep this piece. Now I've got the Ryan AND the Perrin.
Soon I'll have a nice variation of THIS bali:

It's a Szabo/Perrin design and will be made by Dale Reif (the protos were done by Fred). Dale is also doing Laci's RADs (I love mine), and also the folding UUKs which I'll have any day now.

So it's safe to say that my all time fave balis are of French descent. :)
