Ngl thats the best dry balisong sound ive heard, also a slight blade bias is my style, gonna pick 1 up but they sold out immediately😢

That sound tho

i wish i would have anything from machinewise but they are so expensive im not gonna spend that much on a single balisong

I got my Tottori at blade show but sadly it has more wiggle than it should for the price even with the screws tightened

I gotta play devil's advocate. I looooove locktite as long as I can use a screwdriver on both sides of my pivots. I don't have the time to constantly tighten screws, and my balis eat concrete alot. Yes, if you over apply or just slop it in there you are going to create problems. Less is more. Just need enough to see it on the threads. Youre better off having to reapply than putting too much. As long as a tiny bit is on the threads, the screw will spread it

-1th

Idea: relative rotational inertias ranked with all balis in your collection?

I’ve heard this about Teflon tape - do you mean the blue thread locker ptfe tape from the hardware store or something more specific? Ty!

I think my Morse has gotten the worst beating out of all my balis but that's because it was my first one. I think the next one up would be the Apocalypse cyngus because I was bringing it into work and flipping it so it was getting dropped on hard tile a lot and one of the bolts is completely stuck at the moment and one of the zen screws fell out too but I was able to find it. RIght now though I've got the EPS ti 101 and it flips great but I'm just getting over that hurdle of being scared of it getting dinged up or tipped

Read it somewhere but slow is smooth and smooth is fast

Honestly I flip and learn slowly. I use the big flips channel as my main learning resource. Every time I learn a new trick, I try to spend at least a week with just that and trying to find ways to incorporate it. Making new combinations and connections with just this one current thing and the others I already know. Maybe I’m part of a few minority but that’s how my brain works

I've come to the conclusion that it's like a video game. You look up a tutorial for a character build, and what you are staring at is someone with , let's say, chaplain lvl 100. Once you can do a chaplain lvl 1, you gotta grind until you get that chaplain lvl 100. No matter how bad you want them, there's no shortcuts. Gotta grind it....

Step 1 Get a familiar combo

speed comes with time some people just rush the process. great video

waiting for my canyon to ship watching you flip it is torture xd

My OCD absolutely defaults all my balisongs as Safe Queens out the box, even the cheep ones or my old clones. I respect the hell out of folks who post clips and videos with straight up destroyed krake rakens that have all of their anodizing stripped away, or handles that are so beaten to the point where there's no pattern anymore. There's also folks who had Tritons that are so abused to the point that they developed handle slap. It shows the dedication and overall practice that the person had for that one balisong as if it was their only one. This is not to mention their amazing skills at flipping. Perhaps one day I'll have a beaten veteran in my collection. But for now I'm more focused on collecting the new.

blue loctite fixed the loose zen pin on my vulp which kept flying out

dude your flipping is so fast, this is the first time I'm seeing a youtuber flip like that man. good stuff I hope you hit 1000 subs soon

more like a jakeo jakeover

teach

Ul get to 1000 by end of year ez, relaxing and fun to listen to u, keep it up! And thanks il get some Teflon tape, have loctite but was afraid to use glu for the reasons u mentioned. Chrs

i wanna do ladder

for me loctite sometime good sometime bad..

Just use teflon tape method imo That method is fire

there is also a yellow Loctite, I'm pretty sure its for water-proofing screws, could be wrong though

im very new to flipping, and i never even thought about using loctite because i thought you had to boil it to remove the loctite, so i just use teflon tape even though im probably wrong about the boiling part, teflon tape is just easier to remove and stuff (probably wrong i've never used loctite)

There is also a locktite Purple that is used for fine threads. I use it in gunsmith issues all the time.

i started flipping on a super heavy live blade black curved "csgo" bali and recently got alot more invested in the hobby. i´ve gotten a vulp and an orion 1.5 and just ordered a canyon false live. the orion 1.5 is my absolute favorite so far and i can´t wait to try out the canyon. side note: love ur channel

honestly this makes me double take. I've never really been one to shy away from flipping my Mako v3 in front of people, I work in a store and while I'm on lunch or on breaks I flip the knife as I walk to and from the break room and while I'm walking around the store. Most people just don't even look at it, and those who do seem impressed or dismissive. Maybe the environment I'm in means that the people around me have seen how trendy butterfly trainers are and so they assume it's a trainer, or they can tell quickly enough that I wouldn't be doing it so confidently if I thought it was dangerous. It helps that I have a friendly expression and seem very confident in front of them. In general, I'll be within 2 feet of a passerby and still keep going as I walk. I just choose to do tricks that I'm consistent with and know I won't drop the knife doing, and avoid things where the knife leaves my hand at any point. basic opens, fanning, y2ks, etc. things that are so simple I'm not gonna drop the thing and have it hit someone or have someone pick it up. So I'm kinda on the opposite side here, where I think if someone feels threatened by my fidgeting, then that's their problem, and I'm gonna keep doin it. If things escalate, of course I'll show that it isn't real, and I"ll put it away. But I 100% agree with everything you said when it comes to live blades. if it's a weapon, the only time it should be out is when you intend to use it.

I love the canyon, its improved my flipping alot

Nice vid I've been flipping since around 2013 & I love a lot of the points you made.

for me if it flips crazy good imma beat it

Nice bro i wish i could support you more

The thing I loved

I spend too much on these to ruin them. Always kills me when I see someone flipping on the concrete when there is some grass like 5 feet away.

NGL, but I honestly love your vids. Look forward to all your videos And, the thing about price is so true, I can’t afford good Bali’s and if I will buy them, I won’t flip them.😢

I agree a lot with this, when you talked about blade shape my mind went to the vulp and i have been flipping it about 9 months and a lot of people say it looks real at first glance but they realize afterwords. I think it also depends if live blades are legal too because flipping in cali people are a bit sceptical but if you go to idaho or where they are legal then they are chill and for me they say "What?! it's not real? Bummer man." But very helpful vid too!

I feel like I’m reaching intermediate now finally. I’m working on ladders, Z choker to ice pick, and shortstop. I’ve got my first simple combos down to passive too which is super cool for me. Great topic

How do you get your Gopro to not pick up breathing? good flipping btw.

🔥🔥

Is your naut from squid and does it have blade rub?

(Mint) My Canyon has held up very well aside from it getting decent play, but I've noticed zero slap and not much tap either. One thing I did notice with mine is that the finish is almost scratching off in a way, but I think it adds a bit of personality to it.

First 🤓

comparisons are fine but when you get to "what to buy" you either have to have ANOTHER set of comparisons to what the people may own or you just leave it at "well i kinda like this better"

it matters until u get to the preference range where performance pretty much maxed out in my opinion

Yap session

Solution ☝️make a bali out of Lego 🤓

i dont understand how can you do 2 balisongs at once, thats just crazy

how do you arial so consistently

I dont have a bali so i flip my badmiten racket lol in public too people just think it cool flipping a racket and i do stop flipping when i get near a person because flipping something 70cm long isnt safe
