I want a Balisong, I will be getting a handmade one from Batangas soon, but I wanted a modern one as well.

Every year or so I search for a Benchmade 42, but I've never found one I was willing to pay asking price for. This Kershaw has great reviews and it's only downside I can find is the weight. I absolutely love the blade shape and think overall it looks great.

What are y'all's thoughts?

Weight is up there, and they swing fast in my opinion. I only fool with butterfly knives every now and then. I have been more into pocket fixed blades. I would look at the premium Titanium/20cv model at KnifeCenter, if it’s in your budget. https://www.knifecenter.com/it...0r-mbDd8LBKh9UBYmgVZ

There appear to be off the shelf pocket clips that will fit if that’s what you’re after.

Ended up ordering the CF model as well as 4950TR.

Neat, I’m looking at getting One of these clips (ATOM OR ATLAS) that appear to bolt right on to carry mine every now and then.

It arrived.
