Have a look at the picture below.
Very innovative design in the piviots of the knife.
Only visable when the knife is fully taken apart(partially visable when reconstructed).
This actually adds a diffrent feel to the knife as the blade moves through the design.

Solid intergral washers, that have been milled into the pivot underside, has been done by many custom makers in the past.Causeway wrote:Very innovative design in the piviots of the knife.

Unless the specific cutouts are matched to the blade it shouldn't feel any different than any other channel milled bali with a washer set. How exactly does it feel different? What tactile aspects can you point out?Causeway wrote: This actually add a diffrent feel to the knife as the blade moves through the design.
Bali's: one of life's simple pleasures.
This looks like the solution used on my monarch. Could it be? It doesn't have washers, but still the fork is a bit "away" from the blade. I think this that is in the pic could be the same that you can find on monarch.

I can tell you that it's a milled handled steel balisong.
There are no brushing or washers in the piviots,so i guess the maker decided to do some type of "reinforcement" by milling out some inner parts of the piviot to reduce the friction.Cause this balisong dosen't use any brushing or washers in the piviots.
These are the pins used in/on the balisong piviots

Just for the record surface area is NOT used in any formula for determining moving friction [that I know of]. Surface texture and weight [pressure] are used but surface area is not. There may be a slight difference in starting friction in some cases [experts debate this] but I know of no forumla for this.
