I’m a pretty “noob” balisong person - I follow the scene here and there over the years but I don’t have much to compare it to since I usually spend my money on yoyos instead of balisongs. It’s my only bearing live blade balisong, and because of that, it’s wicked scary. The way that this thing swings open and plays feels vastly different then something that just has pivot screws. I actually think I need a trainer blade for it, so that I can get used to it - for now, it just opens packages and other edc things, I don’t flip it much. ---

These are good, but i REALLLLYYYY like the Tayflipper! Spendy, but so many color options and performs super well. I love all the options for trainers these days. ---
