    "why is the 51 so popular? Why would anyone want that one?" Answer: because all the good balis are always outta stock.

    Love the Jody Samson story. Growing up watching Conan The Barbarian & Destroyer I loved that Atlantean sword. So much so I bought the official reproduction by Albion & Jody collab back in 2005 when he was hands on in the production. Unfortunately he has since passed away. RIP Jody.

    Talk about a walk down memory lane. This style of knife was always referred to generically as a “butterfly” knife” and was wildly popular in late 80’s early 90’s. They were sold at practically every gun show and county fair and were universally despised by parents which made them very desirable for teenage boys. I have a low quality Taiwanese one that due to its weight distribution is actually a really good flipper. Under the blade, It had a black sticker “Taiwan” that has long ago rubbed off. On the other side of blade it has “ROSTFREI” actually stamped in metal. The word “rostfrei” is German and translates to “rust free”. My theory is that depending on the venue it was sold one could quickly remove the Taiwan sticker and ask a little more money for it by passing it off as a German manufactured product. Plus a German word on such a knife definitely adds to the taboo factor for an American teenage boy.

    • @ferrisbueller9991
      @ferrisbueller9991 2 роки тому

      Never even touched a trainer, little kid me was flinging the real thing obsessively. Amazingly enough, not one cut. Until I flipped a regular old knife, as stupidly launching a regular old pocket knife it came back down upon me and stuck my leg. Luckily it bounced out opposed to getting lodged in my thigh.
      Well with adrenaline I felt no pain, quickly looked at my leg... no blood. Thought I somehow avoided getting stabbed... nah. Blood began to flow.
      Retrospectively, since I was sitting crossed legged, was lucky I didn't pierce my femoral artery.
      So the moral is that flipping butterfly knives can be dangerous. But flipping a knife not made to flip and do aerials is w2orse

    Hans, it must've been so hard to talk about the 6x series with 'just a little more weight'. Christ, the 87 is plenty heavy enough at 5.3; a 4.5 or even 5 oz weight would've been perfect imo. Those 6x are 6+ oz!

    The 51 went up 30 bucks to about 290 so literally there is no reason to buy it over a Replicant which is 260, the Rep is a better flipper, lots of mods, nice weight, good blade steel (D2 rusts so easy), and are not overpriced.

    "Everything Benchmade makes is warranty for life" well except when I've sent my 51 in because the titanium liner has broken (I have not even dropped it on concrete or anything), they said they couldn't fix it because they no longer have any spare parts for the knife. So really it's "warranty until we still sell said product"

    well, I'm into balisongs for over 4 years now. The trick he teached wasn't a twirl, he showed a double roll out then a twirl and then a reverse twirl. On a normal twirl you would let out the roll out and the rev. twirl, and you'd end up in the pinch grip.
