Haha yeah it’s pretty fun!! I’m pretty sure I’d also cut myself if I used a live blade but that’s what trainers are for, they just have a blunt edge so the worst you’ll get are a couple knuckle raps :)

Would definitely recommend! It’s really fun learning new tricks n stuff and with enough practice you can do some really cool stuff (I’m not there yet though :P)

I got an ownall addax after not too much deliberation because I didn’t want to go too deep down the rabbit hole and just got my hands on something and it’s been serving me really well !! My country has a ban on bladed balisongs though so I don’t think I’ll get one of those anytime soon…

I do have trying to make one myself at one of tde workshops at my uni as a project in the back of my mind though so that should be fun!

I flip balisongs (butterfly knives)! I got a trainer earlier this year and I’ve been slowly learning more tricks. I find it’s somethitg quite relaxing since I tend to be quite fidgety and it’s nice to be fully focused on something once in a while.
