really love the vulp, ive had it for a few months now, its pretty durable if you dont beat it up

I just got my comet yesterday. Gotta say I’m rather impressed for the money. I got the purple and gold one. It was a toss up between the comet and the vulp. The comet feels surprisingly similar to my BRS Alpha Beasts

The link to amazon ? Ur video is very cool ^^ continue : D

I’m also obsessed with the Squiddy! PLEASE REVIEW THE NABALIS LIGHTNING!!! Best Bali for $45 imo!

Also the thing you’re talking about with the fanning is because the comet is a true neutral Balisong so when you manually spin the handle both the blade and the other handle are an even weight so it fans easier. When you try to do the infinity fan you’re trying to use the momentum of the handle to start the rotation but since it’s the same weight as the blade there’s a constant counterbalance so it won’t fan easy. The Vulp can do an inifinity fan because is has a handle bias so the handles have leverage over the blade.

Carbon honey thin is great on lighter bali. I use it in my nautilus. With the vulp I still use carbon thick but you’d like the thin.

Yo, I’ve actually watched you’re video comparing them. Great video! And the comet is a ton of fun, slightly heavier and more neutral than a vulp, great for the price.

@@alecgross12 did you get the v1 vulp? I’ve heard a lot of people having those issues with the early models but I got mine in early December after they adjusted those issues and it’s been amazing holding the tune and durability. I’ve only had to lock tight 1 of the screws because I messed with it a little bit. And id totally make a video on it if it’s not a later model, I feel like the more feedback the better.

As my first balisong you recommend me the marcolo comet or the nabalis vulp in my country the nabalis costs € 80 instead the marcolo € 100

For a first I would recommend the vulp, it’s more affordable and more traditional and an absolute tank, I’ve dropped mine so hard on the concrete and it’s holding up amazingly. It’s also a little lighter. The comet is a lot of fun but i think the vulp is better for learning on.

I don’t own any of them, but because you can infinitely fan with the vulp, and not as well with the comet, I’m going to guess that the comet is more neutral (in terms of balance) than the vulp, and so whether you buy one or the other, it’ll come down to your own personal preference

@SaikoFlips

Yeah. I’ve learned that the comet is SUPER neutral. That’s my issue with the infinite fan. But they’re both great and I love flipping both a lot.

I’d definitely recommend the Nablus vulp. That’s my first good balisong and is still currently my favorite. If you want something a little cheaper the Nabalis lightning also looks like a great budget option

You could try spraying some lube on the pivots of the comet to make it faster and help with the infinite fan.

@SaikoFlips

Жыл бұрын

I only have a medium-thicker lube rn and it just slows it down a little more. I think it’s something with the way it’s balanced or maybe just something I’m doing wrong in my technique ??? It fans amazingly, only during infinite fans

Why do so many of balisong flippers drop on concrete? There's always grass or carpet. I drop my balisongs all the time, but never do anything besides simple openings if dropping on a hard surface is an issue. Wondering if some people like the battle scares from dropping their balisongs on concrete. I've been collecting folders for a long time and it's just in my collector's mentality to keep my knives as new looking as possible.

@SaikoFlips

Жыл бұрын

I have my Vulp specifically as my beater. I flip my Balis everywhere I go so flipping over concrete is inevitable. I only flip my comet over grass or carpet so it’s still clean. I just enjoy flipping when going on a walk or just going to my apartment mailbox or just wherever I’m going. It’s not intentional 😂
