101,06 €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.
Ballistic Grey Titanium, Beadblasted is a modern, premium-class butterfly knife designed with a clear focus on the precision of the mechanism, durability, and a smooth, refined feel. Mark Perez’s design combines minimalist, technical aesthetics with the functionality expected by both EDC enthusiasts and users who treat the balisong as a training and collector’s item. The model stands out with its very clean, geometric lines. The blade, featuring a straight working profile and an aggressively tapered tip, gives it a modern, technical character while ensuring high control during use. A significant advantage of the set is the included trainer blade, which allows you to safely practice manipulation and opening techniques without using the actual, sharpened blade. The handles, made of titanium, have a slender, well-balanced profile with milled grooves that improve grip and control during flipping. This model is designed not only as a cutting tool but also as a precisely refined mechanical instrument for demanding users.
Balisong / butterfly / 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 the “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 shrouded in 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 knife’s distinctive design. It consists of two handles that rotate around the blade, resembling the movements of a butterfly’s wings. Balisongs quickly gained recognition among Filipino warriors, earning the status of a national weapon. Opening and closing them smoothly required extraordinary dexterity, evolving into an art form known as “flipping.” In the twentieth century, butterfly knives reached the West, gaining popularity among soldiers, sailors, and enthusiasts of spectacular tricks. Today, even though their possession is subject to legal restrictions in many countries, balisongs continue to fascinate with their extraordinary agility and rich tradition.

14C28N - martensitic chromium stainless steel is the latest achievement in the range of knife steels produced by the Swedish steelworks Sandvik. An optimized chemical composition with a unique combination ensures the highest quality, excellent edge performance, high hardness, and corrosion resistance. By reducing the carbon content to 0.62% (C) and increasing the chromium content to 14.0% (Cr), as well as adding nitrogen at 0.11% (N), corrosion resistance has been significantly enhanced. Considered an improved version of 13C26 steel. Unbeatable in the price/quality category!
Vacuum & Cryogenic - 14C28N steel has undergone a specialized heat treatment process comprising two key stages. During Vacuum Heat Treatment, the steel is heated in a vacuum environment, which minimizes oxidation and ensures more uniform metal properties. This process increases the steel’s strength and structural integrity. Cryogenic Treatment: After heating, the steel is rapidly cooled to extremely low temperatures, often below -100°C (-148°F). This transformation converts residual austenite into martensite, significantly increasing hardness, wear resistance, and overall durability. Thanks to these advanced processes, 14C28N steel delivers exceptional performance, offering both razor-sharp edge retention and remarkable blade durability.
Blade - sheepsfoot, with a distinctly straight cutting edge and a beveled tip. This geometry ensures excellent cutting control, high precision in blade guidance, and safer handling of the tip during everyday use. The flat grind used supports smooth, clean cutting and allows for good material penetration while maintaining adequate blade stiffness. This geometry works particularly well for EDC tasks such as cutting cardboard, tape, plastics, or fibrous materials. The beadblasted finish emphasizes the model’s raw, technical aesthetic and effectively masks minor signs of daily use.
Handle — made of titanium, it is one of the model’s strongest features. The slender, milled balisong arms ensure excellent weight balance and smooth operation when opening and closing the knife. Cross-milling improves finger grip, increasing control during both practical use and flipping techniques. Titanium ensures high structural rigidity, corrosion resistance, and a distinct premium character expected of high-end models. The pivot mechanism, based on ceramic ball bearings, results in very smooth arm movement, quick knife operation, and a refined feel. This solution is particularly important in balisongs, where precision of movement directly impacts user comfort. An additional advantage of the set is the training blade, which allows you to safely practice manipulation and develop your technique without the risk of damaging the actual blade or accidentally cutting yourself.
