Tip for beginners: Hold the knife close to the pivot when learning new tricks. Most people hold it too far down the handles and that makes it so much easier to drop. And take it slow! Learn and master one trick at a time. Improve your flow over your catalogue of tricks!

I do have something. So when I was young I used to play/flip with a toy called Flip Finz, it was a lighter toy that you can do Balisong flips with a Flip Fin. You can get it from almost any store, Walmart, Family Dollar etc. they dont cost too much. The Flip Finz may be extremely light, but it does get you into the experience, its what i used before i knew Balisongs were a thing. I recommend this because you can learn easy moves with this, and as soon as you get a Balisong, you can used the tricks you learned with a real one. but the real ones are heavier so it'll take solme getting used too. But yeah its a good toy to learn any tricks. (And there is a KZfaq that is originally from Flip Finz that teaches you the basics, they are called well... Flip Finz) I hope this helps.. kinda. but its what i personally recommend.

You can legally own and purchase balisongs in California, you just can't carry them on your person in public, concealed or open carry. It sucks, I'd love to EDC my butterfly knives but noooo, since movies and the media have villianized these type of knives, it's "not safe" because they look scary and intimidating. Nevermind the fact that you can scare and intimidate with any object. They're also completely unrealistic for self-defense or combat because of the free swinging handles. Good luck getting the handles latched during a scuffle. Stupid knife laws. You can walk into walmart and walk out with kitchen knives, machetes, shovels, baseball bats, golf clubs, etc and there's no laws regulating that junk. But no, we gotta outlaw what are essentially fancy pocket knives. smdh. >.

I'm honestly still a beginner myself, but I can still share the best piece of advice I've been given. When you're learning tricks, you're gonna want to go fast. Don't aim for that. Aim for *precision*. If you can pull something off perfectly at half the speed, you'll be able to start doing it faster without thinking.

NO!!!! please don't use electrical tape. Especially if the tape is old. If you decide to leave the tape on a live blade for any amount of time longer than like 2 days the tape will begin to break down. THE TAPE TO USE: is painters tape. It isn't as sticky and won't stay if it's wet or put on loosely but it sticks to itself well which is nice. If you cover the blade and press down on the tape it'll stick for a while and its tough enough that it won't cut through. Be careful of the tip tho it can poke through if its a good blade. you can always add more tape to the Tip for better coverage and to protect your tip. if you do, add the extra underneath instead of over the full wrap so it stays better. painters tape will last a while if you need it to without leaving residue and it is strong enough to stop you from getting cut I hope this could help someone here!

@@WillHirschhey I was wondering what is a trainer that is good for beginners. My friend had a butterfly knife and I was able to do the standard opening. I learned alot from him and was hoping to get more into it. I dont exactly know much about flipping but I am willing to get into it. I was truly hoping to get a good blade but there are so many options that I just dont know. I figured asking you so any chance you can suggest me a good trainer? (I wanna start off with metal so I am already used to the weight of it) and possibly also a good trainer to upgrade to? I also liked the idea of flipping with a live blade so maybe also a live blade recommendation that I can use after making sure that i wont accidentally cut myself. I know this is alot to ask for but will be greatly appreciated if you do reply. Keep up your awesome content and hope to see more cool videos from you!
