What is your favorite balisong and why. For example. My favorite is the BM 42.

Now let me explain. First I had a china cheapie, I knew it was junk. Then I had a Jaguar, I've had mine a month the pins haven't broke. Until I owned a BM 42 I couldn't understand the price difference. No matter the argument, no one could tell me that there was something so great about a Benchmade that there should be a $100 dollar difference.

Now I understand, I have seent the light.

For me, I'm still waiting for my BM-42. I hope BM stops jerking around MJS and sends them like they promise.

 
This is my favorite.
I wish someone would sell it to me.

My favorite at the moment is the 42, but I still fantasize about the days when my Taylor Manila Folder was still operational.

There's just something about the feeling of all that weight in your hand. And then, when you get those suckers moving at speed...... Whooo, it's a total RUSH!

I'd have to go with the 42. It's the first bali that I've had with LIGHT handles and it's the only one I've carried on a daily basis. I did the Miltec thing and it's a blast to play with; my wife's about ready to run me off and she's really pi$$ed now that I got my son a Jag to cut himself with.....

My [dream] balisong is the one I can never have...

I just got a regular 42-S yesterday and I should get another one today when I get off work.

I did not like the 42-A I bought at all. I exchanged it for a regular one. I didn't like the purple, what can I say.
