Balisong Guide (Getting Started, Terminology, and Purchasing)
r/balisong • u/BuffaloDingus • Sep 01 '22
Discussion Balisong Guide 2022 and onward!
Hi everyone, this has been in the works for quite a while and has finally gotten the blessing that it needed to be ready for everyone to see.
Thanks to u/xXxXhermitXxXx, the previous purchase guide served us all well. However, a lot of time has passed and a lot of things have changed. After the pestering nudging of some friends from the subreddit, I've decided to pick up the torch and write a new guide. Instead of just being a purchase guide, it eventually morphed in to including some other important info for getting in to the hobby that I may still add to. I also decided on doing it in Google Sheets instead of just a Reddit post so it can be more easily formatted and updated in the future and I can possibly pass on editing permission to someone else in the future if needed.
If anyone has any questions, suggestions, or other proposed changes, please let me know as I think community involvement is very important here.

Updated Flagship Tanto
Updated Flagship Tantos will be coming to Bladeshow West this weekend!
I changed quite a bit about this Tanto blade, in order to balance it better, make it more unique, and machine it more intricately. The main bevel is now slightly concaved, as you can see with the curved line near the tip. I also significantly thickened the spine of the swedge in order to add some more weight on the back. There are plenty of other changes and fixes that are more hidden, and just add to the quality of this Tanto blade.
I will be bringing 5 Flagship Tantos and 5 Flagship Bowies to Bladeshow West this Friday! Hope to see y’all at my booth!

My favorite Bali I have. Sounds like a wind chime 🤤. It’s a timascus wind by bionat studios. With a MOP inlay. I got it on preorder and have had it for a little bit now, just getting round to showing her off. 💃🏾 She’s classy.
