This double walled butterfly is built for durability with a steel frame. This knife is screwed and riveted together with white ABS mounts. For an added touch of flair the mounts have fun black accents. This pocket knife has two handles that counter-rotate around the tang such that, when closed, the blade is concealed within grooves in the handles. The tanto blade is made from stainless steel with a stonewash finish. A safety latch is located at the end of the bite handle for locking the blade open or closed. I guess the allure of a balisong is all the tricks that can be done. With this type of knife you can perform such manipulations for art and amusement purposes.Overall Length: 8.75 Inches.
