lama, lama, lama i think you’d better stick to guns or dulled butter knives lol

Here are some pictures of my battle scars. 😛

My leg, which is looking kinda bad. Bled a lot inside of my leg, and the blood ended up looking like a super bruise. 😕

And some of my hand:

Here is where I almost cut through the webbing next to my pinky.

Some nicks on my vainy wrist.

And it’s hard to see, but the tip took out a small hunk from the webbing next to my thumb.

Sorry for the bad quality on those, camera is about at the end of it’s life, won’t focus right anymore.

My hand looks better than it did just a week ago. Fortunately I’m young and heal fast, I don’t have much of a fingerprint on my middle finger anymore, took about 1/4 of it off with the first few layers of skin.

I am practining ariels now, so I’m actually throwing the knife in the air. It has tape on it now though, because I knew I would need it. And I was right, I cought it so wrong a couple of times that if I didn’t have tape I very well could have had the knife go through my hand. 😯 The tip will still stick through and poke you though, and it still hurts as bad as ever. 😀

Yeah that’s the traditional one but Benchmade made many knifes for Bali-song and mine is an old one so it’s not around any more.

Photo, does it say so Balisong on the knife – If it does then its just a strange name for a knife that doesnt resemble a balisong at all

This is a Balisong –

I have a Bali-Song by Benchmade and it’s about 15 years old and it’s titanium very light.

We do, but no need in it for me. I stop bleeding pretty fast. It’s about stopped now. 😀

nice one lol
buy a cheapo china made one and dull the blade of it haha
have any superglue?
thats what my wife uses in the or at the hospital she works at stops the bleedin real quick

Well, I got it today. This thing rules!! Handles well, insanely sharp, a little too sharp I think.

Getting ok with it. Doing a move called the zen rollover, and lost control and tossed it into my leg. Sucker poked right in about a half inch!!! So now I’m taking a break, and trying to stop the bleeding. Hand’s starting to look a little like a ketchup covered cutting board as well. I might have to invest in a dull trainer….

But that would cost more money, so I’ll just try not to throw it next time. 😀

I’m in alabama. Everything is legal around here. 😛 We’re right behind texas and arizona.

No shit….

Make sure it’s legal where you are.

Well I bought one. Things are freaking expensive, apparently they are very limited production, msrp went from 100 bucks to 300. 😯

But I found a good deal on one, and have it one the way. 😀 Should get here wednesday or thursday.

Why am I going for butterfly? Well, a few years back I had a few chinese cheapies. I actually got decent with them, and I loved to play with them. I could swing them around all day. Of course, being $5 knives, they fell apart pretty fast, and all around sucked as a knife, but they were a lot of fun to spin around. After my last one fell apart, I never got another, but always wanted a good one. So now that I had some money and needed a decent knife I decided to get a good butterfly. I also love the “lock” on it when it’s open, basically unless the blade breaks or your hand does, it’s not going to close on you.

no, that’s close as well, but the blade was taller, the serrating was only on the last inch of the blade, and both the handle and bade had a curve to them with the handle skeletonized, I use to call the blade a witches finger nail, but it was more of a reversed fingernail.

quote Fastlane61:

quote get the blue jay:

I carried a Spyderco for years, not a butterfly just a good old fashion folder. I loved that knife and I think I shed a single tear when I lost it and then I shed two more when I found out the no longer made that model.
why are you going for a butterfly?

GTBJ, what model did you lose

I cant remember exactly which model it was, I lost it about 15 years ago, but this one is kind of close, the one I had was a skeleton ss handle, the blade was a combo and had a bit more curve to it

this is what I have been carrying ever sense, absolutely a great little knife, I have sharpened about a 1/6 off the blade in somewhere around 15 years, she stays razor sharp, and stands up the abuse I dish out to it.
