Benchmade BALISONG® Knives
As much an art form as it is the ultimate example of
form following function. The balisong
or butterfly knife is of Filipino
ancestry dating back to nearly 800 A.D. It's basic form
consists of a pinhinged, two piece handle which when
closed encases the blade for carry. And when opened,
come together to form the knife handle
for blade use. This can all be accomplished with a single
hand making the tool that much more utility capable.
Benchmade is recognized as the leader
when it comes to making BaliSong® knives.
