Well I guess this question is for the Hardcore balisong people. But if you've had some experience in the field then by all means answer up.
In my flipping I find I'm always cutting my self. Most of the times they are little paper cut sized slits in my hands and fingers. I've had a few cuts that were larger but I've never required stitches. Most of the cuts have happened while flipping and not paying attention. What was your worst injury and how did it happen.

I guess I would be considered a hard user also, never had any cuts that required stitches, plus when I was filming cunning stunts (video below) I got my first cut in about 4 months. (The cut was edited out of the vid, wasnt bad anyway)
All My vids are back online Check them out here.

Re: Hardcore
Bingo! I actually think that's how most of the bad cuts happen, and also the not-so-bad ones. It's very easy to lose concentration when tired, or just kicking back relaxing. Once you get used the the Balisong as "Recreational"..., sometimes the lack of attention can getcha.stepdaddy wrote: Most of the cuts have happened while flipping and not paying attention.

I've only had one really nasty one, and a couple others that needed a few stitches..., but quite a while back.
The yucky one was 7 stitches outside, and 3 inside, and no fun....

Never had stitches, and I hope I'll never need, but I usually cut myself while trying aerials with new knives. I never tryied with my arc angel and with my 42S though, too scared...

LOL John...yeah.., one true benefit to the Ti-Handles is not as much inertia pushing the blade farther in.navajo wrote: Only time I was glad a bali had ti handles.
