Brother I remember watching your videos when I was 17 years old always wanting a benchmade balisong. Here I am, about to be 27 years old and just got this exact knife today for retail price, and is also my first benchmade! Thanks for the lessons, and memories of me staying up past 12:00 oclock practicing off your tutorials! It's been a journey and thank you for keeping this art/lifestyle alive. You're the best dude. :]

A BALISONG VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES, THAT IS WHAT EVERYONE WANTS AND IT'S WHAT WE NEED. I WAS GOING THROUGH WITHDRAW.

Thank you for uploading the review I've anticipating for weeks.

still love all your old balisong tutorials definitely helped me learned the art of flipping lol

WOW! I was looking for a video for this and saw that you didn't have one and you put it up a few days after! Damn, thank God you did this! I really trust your opinion and I might buy one!

Very cool. I need a job so I can get these kinds of things!

AWESOME. I greatly appreciate your videos and admire them very much. This one video specifically helped me a ton on picking out my first Balisong. I was originally looking at the model 66 and 67. I waned to really see which one was the better one and this video really helped me narrow my decision. Thank you so much!!!! Big fan of your skills as well.

With Benchmade's new pricing policy, expect to pay retail anywhere..

I love the loud click of the 67, it is the best sound ever, kind of like a waterfall or pitter patter of rain.

Just ordered a Benchmade 63, so excited for it!

Awesome jeff awesome. Just like the old butterfly videos. They are the best

Happy new year Jeff!!!! And keep up the great videos!!!!!

As usual, great review...the speed comparison was very well thought out and executed!!!

Thank you for the review. I have used Balisong since they were Pacific cutlery.

Hope you had a great new years Jeff!

I got my 62 about a week or two after they came out for around $245 brand new :) love it!

Ive been in love with the blade shape since i got mine! Nice phlebotamist pun lol

I'm a lab tech and I loled at the phlebotomist joke, good one.

Love that blade shape..

Cool man, I have been getting more into serious flipping lately, keep the bali vids coming :) (if you feel like it)

Happy new year Jeff

Benchmade set up a minimum price contract to all retailers that they allow to sell them. That is why it is so high and so close to MSRP.

Yes thank the lord a new balisong video

Just recently purchased one of these. I love it. to be perfectly honest the weight does become harder to deal with. but that's only because I'm constantly flipping this thing. overall I think it's great though!

Beautiful

Happy New Year Jeff!

cool great vid Jeff

I really really am very much considering buying this !!!! Ugh time to start saving up !!

Wasnt a fan of the knife until i got it in my hands. you cant appreciate it until you have one. that being said they used red loctite on mine

Yay! Finally, Bali Review:D Happy New Year Jeff

YESSSSS ANOTHER BALISONG VIDEO. DO MORE PLS.

I love bali's!

I love the 67 and the 51 they are great balisong for flipping and EDC!!! It’s pitty Benchmade discontinued the 67... a lot of people said the 67 is hard to sharpening but with the arête of the spyderco sharpmaker it’s very easy to make a real razor, i hope Benchmade will make new balisong in the future because in France it’s very difficult to find good bali like BRS, i learned all my tricks on heavy balisong and i prefer than the 51 but i know it’s not the opinion of balisong’s community in general, it’s more difficult but it’s possible also.. the sensation is great on heavy balisong, the 51 is a balisong very sexy and a great bali for customs

How do you store your folding and fixed blade knives?

Man that's nice.

where do you get quality 90~ balisongs/butterfly knives? do you know where i could get them in europe? because all i find is cheap 20 dollar balisongs

I'm pretty sure balisongs are legal to carry in PA. There's case law (Commonwealth v Miles) where a balisong was explicitly found to not be an offensive weapon. Though if you have reason to believe otherwise, I'd be interested to know.

Thanks for making a review for a 6x with out spending the whole time saying how the 4x is better.

Thanks for Doing this review Jeff! I Cant wait for the next Balisong Review!

This was my first Balisong, I bought it last Summer. My poor fingers couldn't satisfy the 67's bloodlust, so I nicknamed it Audrey II. What would you recommend training on to use this? I have a generic Bench*Mark* trainer, and an earlier Microtech MetalMark 154-CM I'm practicing with, but the weight distributions of both are so far off! Thanks for finally reviewing this Balisong!

4:20 for me i got use to flipping BM63 and I recently grab a Morpho BM51 and because it was tooo damn light i ended up putting more force than usual and ended up slicing myself doing an aria and thumb rollovers feel strange on light BM51. So what Im trying to say is that get use to what you are flipping and if you go from balisong to balisong then perform 15 minute light warmup sessions(meaning dont jump into stringed combos) with it because you may put more force then needed and accidentally catch the wrong handle. Tips from me and NICE Video by the way.

Awesome knife! Now I have to wait 11 more months for a new balisong video.....:(

Does the latch have a latch gate? Or does it interfere with the blade and other handle?

This model is discontinued now

how would you go about sharpening this?

That's awesome I just got bradley kiruma 4 near you

Hi cutlery lover do you think that Benchmade will cover my warranty for my old Bradley Kimura 2 for any replacement parts?

I know the 6x deride are major handle heavy and short but with this huge blade how's the balance as it seems like it actually would be good

Jeff, You can edc a bali in PA-- I do it with my Benchmade 51. Do a Google search and you'll find that there was a recent case where it was determined that a balisong is not an "offensive weapon", and is thus legal to carry.

I've been meaning to pick one of these up for years, I should just bite the bullet and do it by now.

I am looking to buy my first balisong. I am thinking about the 51 or 32 most likely. Is the 32 to small to be a good flipper? I have large hands. Not xl but large. Is there another that would be better under $200? I can't carry it so I'm just looking for a good flipper

i this Bali so much! i flip a Bradly Kamura 6

I've been doing this for a month now so I wouldn't say new but I'm no pro and I just got one of these. Got used to the weight change OK but I still got cut a few times on day one and yea this thing is pretty fucking sharp

I’m actually having problems with my 67 the pivot screws won’t come out I’m trying to change the blade to my 51 i saw some one modded theirs to switch them out

Finally!!! Where's all the balisong stuff been cl?

I started with a 67, but want to also get a 51. And trust me, my 67 has tasted plenty of blood haha. I accidentally grabbed the wrong handle one time and cut to bone on three spot on my fingers. I somehow didnt notice it until i saw blood dripping all over the carpet. But the pinch from this hurts too. Only thing i haven't had yet was the ricochet. And also, have you done a review on the benchmade afo2? If not, do you think you could get your hands on one for a review?

could you do a tachyon 3 review? I like your reviews!

i completely missed this when it came out >:( damn i was waiting like an idiot for it haha

I want one of these, but one thing is turning me off...the latch.. does it/can it get in the way of safe handle or blade?

@VinEllis

Literally 99.9% of balisongs have T-latches. Most modern balisongs like this one have a latch gate that prevents the latch from getting in the way.

And the thing you said about the loctite...I lost a pivot screw on my 51 cause I didn't want to loctite them so I didn't void the warranty :(

I started flipping with a knife that was 5.7 oz, then I moved to a 51 Morpho and things honestly were easier right away. I thought I would struggle but the 51 is so good

Jeff could you do a review on Walther Black Balisong Knife (BBK)? waould be great to see it :)

I am saddened because I can only like this video once......

Review the 87!

Your making me want to get a 6x model again haha,.

Are 6X blades interchangeable with 51 blades?

I fucking love that these are sold on amazon(Sold by BladeRunnerLLC, an authorized Benchmade dealer)!

Hello to cutlerylover. I am a fan of your bali and videos and i was wondering if you have ever considered actually getting a traditional filipino made balisong from Batangas. I am from the Philippines and the knives made from Batangas can be custom made and i wanted you to make a video about our balisongs. Thank you

What are your thoughts on the Benchmade 62T?

nice blade, almost like a diamond point

I really don't understand what Benchmade is doing, they pretty much ignore the balisong market which they can totally dominate with their reputation. Like seriously, they discontinued the 42 which was almost a perfect balisong which is still considered the best ever, and now they keep making balisongs which are inferior even though everyone wants the 42 back. Secondly, they patented the spring latch and never use it, what the fuck.

Devin Ellis dont get me wrong i like benchmade, i have a 62t but i dont think one company should be able to run an industry. and whatever it gives people without much money a way to get into balis

The flip you did was a modified horizontal flip. to break down what i think i saw was a starting off with a standard opening but with your index finger on the top of the safe handle bring the momentum back to let the spine ricochet on the index and then kind of pivot the safe handle a bit at letting the spine ricochet against the top of your hands or index finger and then doing a reverse wrist pass to bring the balisong to a close. Hard to explain it but I can make a video on that move you did if anyone wants to see how it was done.

Hey Jeff or anyone in the comments I have just enough for a 67 but I also like the 51 and I'm like mech and neck with both of them and I'm wondering witch one to buy if anyone can help plz reply thank you

how much fir one of those? really beautyfull!

what are your thoughts on microtech balisongs?

Hey there jeff. You may have said it somewhere else on your vids but what got you into knives? Maybe it deserves a story time video:)

I'd love you to check out the Balisword. They go for ~$250. :P

I was under the impression you could carry a balisong in pa

That is a super sexy knife :)

Hey Jeff. I doesn't have a lot to do with this video but i was wondering. As far as self defense goes. What do you think about push daggers. I think that's what they're called. And have you ever owned one

So if I'm a newb . . . what do I get? A new 42 is nowhere to be found at a reasonable price. I am absolutely in love with this knife. What if I treat it with the utmost caution and respect it deserves?

Hey I'm a big fan and i just bought a bradley kiruma 4 In Lancaster Pennsylvania in one of the biggest knife collections in the world the place is called country knives but the thing I wanted to ask you if you could review the balisong

For beginners is better a 62 or a 67??

Hey I'm really enjoy watching your videos I am starting to collect knifes and I would like to own a good made balisong dosent matter the blade style I would like to purchase one from you but a cheap one around 20 $ because I am low on budget because my dad is hadicapped and well can not buy a balisong that's is expensive I hope you answer back thank you

Let me clarify, I do not mean an FU42, I mean a standard bm42 clone. I know you reviewed them a while back. I bought several and they are great. I can beat them up and not worry too much because it only costs 22 dollars to replace them.

I have all the family they are very good knives and flipper but they are not for beginners.. heavy knives but I prefer I have more sensation, they aren’t scary out of the box but it’s pretty easy to make scary sharp blade in one hour maximum

So just the other day, I was trying to do a transitional...and somehow...I don't know how...I messed up and ended up cutting myself pretty bad and got 5 stitches. This knife is amazingly sharp. :) I'm pretty upset with my knife though...the T latch gets in the way and is very floppy. Gets in the way whenever I get in the way. It's worth the money though

+peacefullmonk I am from Ohio as well I've looked into the laws and they are illegal for concealed carry but they are legal to own (I own the benchmade 62 and love it)

I do prefer the spear shape blades but its not bad

If you had a chance to buy eather brand new for 300$ witch would u get have to pay 300

Does anyone know a guide or video on how to sharpen this knife? I got it around a year ago and haven't sharpened it yet, use it just for flipping but am getting confident enough to just EDC it and use it for everything I'd use a normal knife for, but it's now fairly dull. I'm worried about sharpening it incorrectly as it's my first expensive knife. Don't want to ruin the secondary point or anything.

If it's a benchmade and you have the papers that came with it, read the part about the lifesharp program

You can't edc a balisong even with a concealed weapons permit?

Moar balisong vids plz!! :D
