Re: Cold Steel Arc Angel: Underrated
If folks find those and buy them, keep in mind they all have carbon steel blades and will rust if stared at too hard. Its 1095 steel and great blade steel but it will rust. Cold Steel called it Carbon V.

Re: What Is Your Most Prized Balisong?
Jody Samson was an artist when it came to grinding blades. Have a few, wish I had more.
Should have bought a bunch when I was a PCC/BM dealer.

Re: What Is Your Most Prized Balisong?
Came in Friday. A Samson ground stilleto blade with black and burgandy inserts.
N I B. Thats right, it is new in the box.
The butterfly logo is missing the circled R.
Handles are still stiff.
Beatiful knife and a lucky find.

Buy the Ren wax if you want to but any carnauba wax will do. It does not have water in it. I have been using a car wax for many years. Same can, still lots of wax left in the can.

Valor was an import and was included in the ban.
You might find a couple at either gun shows or flea markets.
Some were junk and some were pretty decent. I still have a few,

gift
Two options, Typhoon kit for around 70 bucks or a Benchmade 42.
Anything else is a waste of money if you want a durable balisong.

1st Mikov
Just received my first Mikov. The one with the file worked back spring and blade spine and rear bolsters.
Excellent. No blade play, but its still new.
Excellent finish and decent horn.
It won't be my last.

Sad day in Baliville. Chris Olafson has stopped production of his balisongs.
I managed to get three and want about 15 more.

latama
Couple of years ago, at the Spirit of Steel show in Dallas, one of the vendors had maybe 200 pre ban Italians. Only name I recognized was Latama. I don't know much about the early Italians, most of my money goes to custom balisongs. Anyway, the guy, whoes name I can't remember, sets up at that show ...

I did have one stag handle Italian that was very nice. Got offered twice what I paid for it so I sold it. No regrets. Som...
