About this model

This is a revised version of my first balisong design. This new design is balanced better for flipping, very durable, and easier to print. There are also many options for customization. - There are a variety of blade designs to choose from. - It can be fully printed or made with M3 screws, specs linked here. - There is a choice between handles that flair out or close completely. (The balisongs in the thumbnail have flared handles) I have included a step file of a blank blade so its easier for others to make their own blade designs.
