    FANTASTIC TUTORIAL! I’ve been stuck at the Chaplin not knowing what to learn next. ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: TWIRL
    My biggest obstacle was the way my ring finger did not want to move right. I could feel it only wanting to move a certain way for the first like 15-20 tries. Also, I thought I had it when I stopped it and went back into the Chaplin. The extra twirl took me a while to get past figuring out how to get it to get the SAFE HANDLE between my ring and middle finger. I kept getting the bite handle and throwing my balisong around when I would return to the Chaplin backwards as a result of reversing from the bite handle.

    I was struggling to keep my chaplins going but I found some bearing lube in the garage and now it’s 1000x easier and I just have a bali spinning on my finger like 24/7 coz it’s an addictive trick ngl

    What do you get when you do the Chaplin on a Spider-knife?
    Cut. You get cut. Then you bleed 🩸.
    😂. I just learned to Chaplin from this video. Many thanks. Still bingeing on your videos.
