Balisong knife, is mistakenly called the butterfly knife outside of the Philippines. History on the Balisong knife seems to be vague though there are many myths and legends for this knife. The Balisong knife is very popular and named after a town in Batangus called Barrio Balisong in the Philippines. This knife is like the “Swiss knife” of the Filipinos, who use it for almost anything. From peeling to chopping food, eating, fixing loose screws, cutting cardboard boxes, and many other things that you can think of, including it's use for combat of course. The only knife that can be opened and closed with grace and style, but has a bad reputation as a dangerous weapon. And with good reason; in the right hands of a knowledgeable Balisong player, this blade can be very deceivingly deadly.
Blade Length: 5.25" - Overall Length: 11.25"
$165 - Must be special ordered - please email us (thescarfamily@yahoo.com)us if you would like to order a balisong
"The blades ( Bolos) of different design distributed by Traditional Filipino Weapons, are genuinely designed as purely combat blades made by experts from Bontoc Province in the Far north of Luzon whose family belongs to one of the 8th tribes existing in the Cordilleras today. The design are expertly patterned in the traditional archives of Bolos stored into the natives blade making system now open for the first time by the Forondo families with the purpose to present the Blade culture of the Filipinos as real including the Fighting system of Pekiti-Tirsia inseparably works together in the field of real combat."
I highly recommend you subscribe to the original Filipino bolos for reality and long lasting memory."
