That's the one. I've always been something of a Witch King fanboy. It's definitely a big sword though.

Thanks for looking
Genuine balisongs? Balanced and throwable?

Re: Knives, Swords, and...........Transformers?

I have a "practice" balisong purchased from ebay. Great to "do the trick", but I realized how dangerous the real thing must be!

Re: Knives, Swords, and...........Transformers?

Mind you that it's been years but I remember two things "playing" with a balisong:

Fluidity: So I can keep all of my fingers. The sharp part of the blade always moved away from my hand, fingers and body.

Stop on open only: Keeping in mind the above, I remember, stopping only when the knife is open and ready to be used.

Main reason for both was for a quick surprise strike. Dropping it while opening was not an option.

The last thing I remember liking was just flipping horizontally. It felt the most natural to slashing the neck open.

We don't carry any live Bali's(because they're prohibited), but we do stock Benchmade trainers, as well as our own house brand models.

Re: Knives, Swords, and...........Transformers?

I've be messing with butterfly knife trainers (ya, balisong are the truer name, but "butterfly knife" just sounds cooler to me.) for years. You can easily find them on ebay for good prices. I've broken a few over the years from wear and the fact that it was made of cheap metal. Like a year ago knockoff benchmade 42 trainers popped up and I snagged liked 5-6 of them. They are fantastic.

If you just want a butterfly knife to mess with and not care if it has a actual blade, get a trainer. As already said they are not illegal, as they are not actual butterfly knives. They are trainers.

As for swords, I've always wanted to get a katana or a Buster Sword from either FFVII or the Advent Children version. I've seen them on ebay, but I just would not have room to display them.
