Hi Dudley-
Sorry to be so long in getting back to you. Been up to my eyeballs in stuff
associated with the move to Florida. Finally got the shop up and running.
Strange you should inquire about balisongs, I am just starting to get back
into them. A couple of guys in California are publishing a book on balisongs
and it should be out in a couple of weeks. They have got me interested in
them
again and they want one of my knives to be on the cover of the next volume.
At any rate I will be heavy into balisongs for awhile. A 4" bladed balisong
such
as you describe with kriss blade and 416 stainless handles will run you
somewhere between $500 and $650 depending on what you want for blade
material and insert material. Let me know your druthers.
Ralph----------------------- I received this from him this morning so if you're looking for a custom, he can do it! Look at my post about the sheath I made.....
