BALISONG Butterfly Knife FREAK SHOW! sorry, I don't know any "traditional" balisong tricks/techniques. so, Welcome to the FRINGE of balisong! I made up a lot of these tricks, and, "style" in general I guess, in 1984 when I was 14 years old. I didn't know I was doing it wrong!! Anyway, some people like it. Who knows. Maybe you can do something cool with this technique. I see now it is strange for a lot of people. Anyway, now I just work on new stuff in my own way. Got my old knife fixed. Get to mess around with it almost everyday now. Stoked.
The weird "CleaveStyle" is not for everyone!!!. This is the HIGH RISK, LOW PROBABILITY DANGER ZONE!
Fastest way ever (closed-to-open single motion) to open the balisong? here is the link to this little trick I figured out when I was fourteen...
