A full introduction to the balisong flipping hobby and all you need to know as a beginner to balisongs! I originally wanted to make a 1 month progress of my flipping skills but I realised that watching one month of me failing the chadder over and over again is not very fun to watch...
WARNING: I HIGHLY RECOMMEND BALISONG TRAINERS (dull metal blade, not a real knife, does not cut) FOR BEGINNERS TO START OUT WITH. THIS VIDEO IS FOR EDUCATION AND ENTERTAINMENT. I DO NOT ENDORSE ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 13 TO BE WATCHING THIS VIDEO OR PLAYING WITH KNIVES, REAL OR FAKE.
