ALL BUTTERFLY KNIVES HAVE BEEN DISCONTINUED

Butterfly KnifeButterfly knives also known as Balisong knives originated in the Philippines in the small town of Balisong. Although the Balisong knife is as popular today as ever, it is actually an ancient weapon that can be traced back as far as 800 A.D. It was used in the mystic art of Malaya-Polynesian fighting system called Kali.
Another name for the Balisong is a Batangas knife. No matter what you call it, it is a deadly weapon in the hand of an expert and can be opened as fast as a switchblade.
The Balisong knife started showing up in the US around the time of WWII. It most likely was brought back by US soldiers and picked up its name "butterfly knife" here in the states. This is because when you are opening or closing the knife the handles look like a butterfly wings in motion. When closed the handles completely cover and conceal the blade. With a simple wrist flip, the handles open up to reveal the blade.
It does not take a lot of practice to learn to open or close the knife, but doing it with finesse and style takes much practice.
