Not if you're cutting with it...
The zt 0550 is pretty tuff. Theres a video of a Russian (?) Dude beating the snot out of one for like 20 minutes. Held up better than the other knives in his similar vids. Convinced me to get one before they sold out from dealers when discontinued. Not only tuff but buttery smooth. I can spydie flick it open with the blade stops and the blade falls with a slight shake when unlocked. Love that knife!

Yeah, by the nature off the beast, with the fewest moving parts and design, the balisong has the title. A well made bali will outlast any other folding knife under harsh conditions. It's sort of in a class by itself.
I don't think there is any Bali on the planet that can match Demko's 4 MAX. The hinge pins would eventually rip out of the handle.

In my tests balisongs have been very week because the pivot pins usually fail. However while the overall strength is low compared to a other locks they are very very reliable because there is no "lock" to slip out.
This makes sense to me. Typically small pivots, with small washers. A balisong is not the first thing that comes to my mind when I'm thinking about a tough folding knife.. kinda curious as to the logic behind people thinking they're tough. I do love a nice balisong though....In my tests balisongs have been very week because the pivot pins usually fail.

Well, what do you mean by tough and how do you test for toughness? Hanging weight test? Spine whack? Prying?
Well..balisong.
