5,37 €This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
Among butterfly knives, there is a group of designs that do not try to attract attention with colors or decorative coatings. Martinez Albainox Balisong Gray Steel, Satin 3Cr13Mov 02211 represents this approach – a design based on the raw aesthetics of steel and classic balisong mechanics, in which functionality and durability of materials play a key role.
At the heart of the design is a blade with a symmetrical spear point geometry, in which the spine and cutting edge lead to a centrally located tip. This profile ensures good blade balance and promotes controlled cutting. The geometry of the blade is based on a flat grind, which supports smooth blade entry into the material and stability during use. The blade is made of 3Cr13Mov steel, valued for its corrosion resistance and easy maintenance, making it a practical choice for knives intended for everyday use.
The second important element of the model is the steel balisong handle. The design consists of two symmetrical arms rotating around the axis of the blade, which when unfolded form a full-size working grip. When closed, the arms cover the blade, acting as a natural transport cover. In the 02211 model, the handle has been kept in a minimalist style, which emphasizes the technical nature of the design.
The whole is complemented by a classic balisong latch, which locks the knife when unfolded and closed. This keeps the design stable during use and transport. This model is an example of a simple steel balisong designed for durability and functionality.
Balisong / butterfly knife / batangas / taal / butterfly - among the various types of knives, one stands out for its particularly impressive handling. It is the balisong butterfly knife, also known as a “butterfly” or “bali.” Its history dates back to 18th-century Philippines, where it served not only as a practical tool but also as an effective weapon for self-defense. Although the exact origin of the balisong remains a mystery, it is traditionally associated with the town of Balisong on the island of Batangas. Its name in Tagalog means “broken horn,” which accurately reflects the characteristic design of the knife. It consists of two handles that rotate around the blade, resembling the movements of butterfly wings. Balisongs quickly gained recognition among Filipino warriors, earning the status of a national weapon. Opening and closing them efficiently required extraordinary dexterity, transforming into an art form called “flipping.” In the 20th century, butterfly knives reached the West, gaining popularity among soldiers, sailors, and enthusiasts of spectacular tricks. Today, despite legal restrictions on their possession in many countries, balisongs continue to fascinate with their extraordinary agility and rich tradition.
