It's been awhile since I posted any new knives and I've really been jones'n to post one, so I checked my bank account and found $20. in there, so I went on the hunt for something inexpensive with free shipping and found this at Amazon with those specifications. It works out well cuz I wanted a balisong represented in my collection but could never find any with dagger blades that would ship to Canada, until now! 8)

I think the dagger blade is the perfect style for a Balisong; it just looks "right" in balance and proportion. Hard to believe it was only $20 (Canadian, no less!) Good score!

Can you do the fancy butterfly swirling nunchuck-type motion to open it?

Received this really nice Case Trapper in the mail this morning that I bought from Ripster. It is in really great shape and was priced right for me. He also threw in a beautiful little Colonial with brass tip bolsters that Maybe has me more excited than the Case. I do love old Colonials. Thanks JP nice surprise there.

A gentleman from church gifted me this knife today. He got it from the American Legion and said "I know you collect knives, thought you might like to have this!". What a kind man. I appreciate his thoughtfulness! :)

Thanks ~Q~! I totally agree with your assessment that the configuration of my new knife "just looks right", I do not feel the same about a clip-point or drop-point on a balisong. I actually got the dagger style blade from the James Bond movie "Casino Royale" when Bond crashed his car to avoid running over his leading lady who was tied-up in the middle of the road, and one of the villains pulled him from the wreck and then cut out a tracking devise that "M" had installed in his arm to keep an eye on him, with a gorgeous balisong that had a shiny dagger blade, and I've never forgotten that knife, so when I saw that similar one at that price, well, you know! The reviews on Amazon were all very positive with many of the one's from Canada saying, "if you want one you better act fast cuz they're illegal here in Canada and Amazon will drop the listing soon". I've seen the odd auto listed on Amazon.ca but they rarely are listed for long. And lastly, no, I cannot open my knife with nunchuck-type motion, nor do I wish to learn how at this stage of the game, I'm happy if I can just open it normally and not cut myself! LOL! 8)

Thanks Jamie! It wasn't actually a bank error, I just thought I was broke, but when I checked the $20. was there. I wish it was an error for $200. cuz then I could look for something a bit nicer and not need to worry about free shipping! 8)

Fascinating detail, Marco. Of course, my favorite "Bond character" would have to be...yes, you guessed it: "Q". :lol:

It's been awhile since I saw the original Casino Royal (the one with David Niven as Bond) so I don't recall the scene you described. Perhaps it was from the 2006 remake starring Daniel Craig as Bond? ::shrug:: (I haven't kept up on my Bond lore since retiring from MI5 :wink: )

You'll have to learn how to open your Balisong faster if you want to get the jump on James and his Walther PPK!!! ::tounge::
Sorry, Marco. Not fast enough! Now, be so kind as to mix me a vodka martini, stirred, not shaken.

::rotflol:: ::clapping:: ::rotflol:: Great stuff ~Q~! Pretty darn good detail yourself my friend! It didn't dawn on me until you mentioned it, but you do have a strong connection with that series via names, cool! The scene I described is from the 2006 remake with Daniel Craig, and if you're a Bond fan and haven't seen it, be sure you do, it's one of the entire series best, IMHO, and I really like most of the others! I wouldn't want to face James Bond with a gun, knife, or any other weapon, well maybe a bazooka, so the chances of me needing to be an accomplished "flipper" are slim! Gotta gets back to MI5, later! LOL! Oh, and your martini is ready, stirred, not shaken just like you asked! ::doh:: ::facepalm:: ::dang:: ! 8)
