Balisong recommendations!: docs.google.co...

Super inexpensive.
Made of extremely durable material.
A nice, balanced weight and not super heavy.
A really solid flipper. I have like 50 balis and it holds up against all of them.
It's my go to recommendation
It's a great option
I started on a 20 dollar ccc of a bm40t in high school. Upgraded a titanium version of the clone a year later. Transitioning from stainless to titanium is much easier than from stainless or titanium to aluminum. If anything id say aluminum is actually the most difficult because of the way momentum carries and how much less grip there is in general. Its a totally different feel. So for me, whichever material you start with, switching to another is always going to be hassle in some way. Id still recc something like the canyon over the others simply because of durability. Beginners are going to drop the bali....a lot. So its better for them to have something that can actually take the abuse for the learning curve
I want one with extra storage!
Do you think a trainer or a false live blade is better?
I actually prefer the trainer canyon
1 question, I want to buy a balisong max 300 dollars what do you recommend, because I was thinking of the nautilus v2 but I’m not sure
What's your preference? Do you like G10? Get the Nautilus o Nabalis Trident. Do you want a live blade? Go for the Krake Raken / Sirius V3. Do you prefer titanium? BBbarfly Superfly (they have amazing deals on this trainer). The overall go to is a Krake Raken honestly, it just fits most people's preferences and it gets only held back by its grip. If you like G10 but would like something a bit heavier, get a used rep (or the Armed Shark one if you don't mind clones)
And if you want to save up the most - GET THE CANYON. It is the absolute BEST VALUE THERE HAS EVER BEEN in the hobby. It's insane what you get for that price
@@kirop7 thanks but I already have a kraken trainer and I can’t have live blades have any other options ( it’s okay if you don’t ik just searching for advice )
@@henksjoerd-ot8xw armed shark Madko is pretty sweet 120$ titanium trainer and if you have the cash the real ones sub 400 especially if blemished
@@henksjoerd-ot8xw I would say go for the Superfly if you want to experience quality titanium and an amazing performing bali and go for the Trident / Naut if you like grip and LIGHT balisongs. Other than that, you can checkout Baikal from ThomasBalisong, Nabalis Wing / the Vulp Pro and if you want something interesting and fun, I'd go with one of the BBbarfly chonky products. They're very unique. Rep trainer would definitely be an option if you can find it second hand as I've mentioned. Also the guy from BalisongFlipping has made 2 trainers I believe and I heard they're both pretty decent especially for the price so you can consider those as well. Squidtrainer is an absolute reliable classic which again, struggles only with grip sometimes. I LOVE G10 ajd I believe it is the absolute best handle material for balisongs so my next pickup will be a Naut V3 (when it comes out) but you should go by what you would like to try or prefer :)
balde bias
TLDR its cheap, great quality but the balance is mid af
How is the balance mid? Could mods fix it?
@@g22lrcvrsld maybe with weights in the blade of the trainer it could feel a little better but even the live is insanely handle biased. i think its great for someone who has never flipped before but if you have just the basics down i dont think its worth. (the trainer is even more handle bias than the live) just my opinion about it though, i own both.
I go by the DJEyelessPyro school of thought. I had a heavy ass ccc for my first Balisong before squid came around years ago, and it basically made me way more appreciative of every type of balisong that came out.
I had a 42 way back a bunch of shitty Amazon knives from 2015 to 2017 and then I got a lucha so I most definitely agree
We are spoiled for choice today
@@BladeBias too many options I’m broke lmao
Being in the hobby for about 4 months(ish) now, and I can relate some points you mentioned. Sure, there are some balisongs feels like aliens comparing to standard balisongs. However, I believe that it is only matter of adjusting yourself, my very first balisong was the OG Squiddy, I learned most basic tricks on that without much problems, but when I switched to aluminum bali, Nabalis Trident that weight only 3.6oz and feels like I am lifting heavy weight on my first day, but my hand was able to adapt within a couple of days.
What make the Canyon great for the Canyon to me is that it's made from steel, and as beginner, I dropped my knife like a hundred times per day, indoor and outdoor. Plastic and aluminum balisongs will definitely has dent after the first drop on concrete, this will dramatically impact beginners since most people has tendency to safe queen their knives, and the damage also make flipping experience uncomfortable, my Squiddy has so much dents and scratches that I literally don't want to pick it up because it feels so annoying. But not the case for the Canyon, that thing is a tank, I dropped it on concrete EVERYDAY but it still feels normal for me to flip and the damages are less visible, plus, it's like the cheapest authentic balisong so it will not make you feel bad for dropping it which I think is very important for beginner to accept it and keep flipping.
Definitely!
I literally just found your channel within the past week and asked about the Canyon on yesterday’s video. Pulled the trigger yesterday on the Acid Wash trainer blade because they say that Loctite and lube doesn’t come with the false edge. Thanks for the update video man
Lube is very important
Hope you enjoy it!
I recommended one of my friends a canyon, and he has been flipping consistently and really enjoying it.
That's awesome!
I got the canyon because nabalis and aliexpress are pretty much the only ones that ship stuff to my country, and i didn't wanted to start on a clone so the canyon was a no brainer for me. Has held up pretty well too. I'm in love with the BBSuperFly Cuda but they don't ship to colombia :c.
"Greetings everyone and welcome back to blade bias" hits so hard after not flipping a balisong or watching a video in 3 months. its good to be back
Welcome back 💚
i just got mine a week ago and i havent been able to put it down, i absolutely love it
Happy to hear that!
Yes please make a video about your music taste.
Bro, how do you improve flipping?
Sorry my english is bad
Thanks i love your content
Whats your skill level?
@@Budgie_Flips begginer
@@juuzousuzuya9136 whats the hardest trick you can do?
@@juuzousuzuya9136 Learning multiple tricks at the same time helped me with not burning out.
Just keep at it like you would any other skill
Hey thanks for this video! It came just in time. I was considering getting a Canyon, Vulp, or Calico (but I think Tay is MIA right now). I had a heavy Boker trainer before and I disliked the weight and the balance. It made rollovers pretty annoying but this isn't gonna be my first Balisong. Do you think either of those would be worth it, or should I buy something else for like 55 USD.
Probably the canyon then
I’ve been thinking about getting the trainer and putting the zippy inserts
Not sure how the trainer flips or how much the Zippy inserts do but I hope you enjoy!
You mentioned the orion being great, I had been looking at one. Im curious on your thoughts of say an orion compared to the price bracket above it?
It holds up to stuff double its price range easily, but I'm not sure if it beats any of them
Awesome, sounds like it may be the point of diminishing returns for someone like me who wants something nice to flip but with a reasonable budget. Was just trying to Guage if it was worth stepping up to like a Wing price area.
Before I broke it, my first quality bali was a live blade Krake Raken v3 Tanto, and I wasn't liking its slippery aluminum handles or how centered its radial inertia was. I think I'll like this blade much more (and G10 is really tough. There's almost no way I can break this one).
It is a bit weird but as a beginner it feels easier to flip and learn on because its slow. Also would love to hear you talk about Clancy.
Can confirm the clancy video was great👍
I see the extrusion having problems with the handle gap closing.
If the zen pins is also 7075 al like the blade then it prop not that bad
@@phuongtrang5383 the pins are steel from what I can tell.
It is on zen pins which confuses the hell out of me, but if it's true the pins are aluminum then it should be fine? Maybe?
I am really hearing that we have a similar opinion on this (I also think it's the best starter on the market for now) but I need to adress one thing. The weight/momentum. Because I strongly believe it's a good thing for a beginner. Why? Well, it shapes the style. That new flipper learns to utilize momentum instead of fighting it with ricochetes. This results in a more fluent style instead of choppy, chaoticaly matched tricks. It's obviously just a theory ofc but seems to be true when I look back at us
True, but it could also lead to a beginner coming to over rely on momentum that may or may not exist on more expensive balisongs they may upgrade to
ay yo today's my birthday and I am LOVIN the Vulp Pro
Happy Birthday 🎉
Congrats and happy birthday!
@@paullee1661 Thanks bro!
@@BladeBias thanks man
I started on a curved csgo steel Bali from 2016 and that is 7.1 oz and I'm looking for a lighter one and I'm thinking about this does anyone have any other recommendations
For plastic a squiddy b from squid industries is really good for $55 but there is the regular squiddy for $50. Off Amazon I recommend a nabalis vulp for $65 but the nabalis canyon or the nabalis cheese is pretty good.
Also if you can get you hand on an ldy orionv1.5 it’s so worth it for $75. And it grows with you
Why would anyone ever go with a Vulp when Orion v1.5 exists at $75? Comes pre-lubed and spare parts, just missing your own lube and loctite or teflon, but honesly I haven't needed it for mine in 3 months of use with some serious drops... Idk, I feel like once you approach anything over $50 it is hard to say go with anything other than Orion unless they are out of stock (or if they really want plastic for some reason)
Availability. That's the main weakness of the Orion. Some people don't want to wait for a drop when they can buy a vulp in any color anytime
@@BladeBias I did have to wait a few weeks for an Orion trainer to pop up, but man is it worth it! I also will say the limited options on colors/patterns may also turn someone away, but for value and quality and to make sure someone new can really grow/have a balisong that grows with them, I feel like it's worth the wait. However, I haven't gotten my hands on a Canyon yet, so maybe it will surprise me! I do have a Zenith which looks amazing but has tolerances that leave quite a bit to be desired, though it is nice to have one bali with play and one that is more 'strict' and clean (at least that is what I tell myself lol)
Got one. Beginner. Like the sound of S/S
what a wonderful video thats totally not recorded 2 days late at 3 am!
How oddly specific 🤔
Hey, i want edit lite with different colored handles. Can you tell please, its "mismatched handle" as a second handle color?
I really relate to feeling jealous that people get to start with a canyon, i can’t believe i flipped a white squiddy for like two whole months starting out. I think the vulp and canyon are really awesome value for new flippers for sure.
I flipped a squiddy like 6 months 😂
Count your blessings a squiddy is a great starting point before that it was only 10 dollar CCC’s
Can relate
Yes, I am interested in your taste of music
Noted
slayed🕒
Finally early, ( Henk is not my real name this is just a weird account )
Very informative. Thank you.
Happy to help!
Clancy bonus bias NOW
I'll get on that
Nice speedstacks mat :)
Thanks I need to get a new deskmat though it's getting a bit ratty
If you review extrusion could you please compare the flipping experience to Nabalis Hydra?
also nice jackson, did you replace the bridge pickup?
I don’t own an Extrusion, nor do I own a Hydra, but I can tell you that you cannot compare the flipping experience of those two.
Compare it to the AL made more sense
Fourth
Im kinda surprised that it doesnt have handle slap
Pinsless while not ideal can still be done well
Still getting a vulp I like it cause it’s aluminum
