    Replacing the pivot pins + washers for my BM42 clone

    Those should work but I think you're putting good money into a bad product. If you're determined to fix the one you have why not buy a CCC trainer off Ebay for $8 or $9 & strip it for parts? People on this board can give you some recommendations for a better starter bali that won't break the...

    Replacing the pivot pins + washers for my BM42 clone

    I believe the pivots for that CCC BM42 are 5/32". Knifekits.com sells them. Did you strip the pivots that came with the bali or do they just loosen up after you flip it a bit.

    IMHO Bali 2 is one I'd love to see made. Really appeals to my tastes. That blade grind looks like it'd be a little difficult to achieve. Mike

    I am very jealous of the grinds you do. That blade is absolutely fantastic. Can I ask what you use to do the hollow grind? mike

    Tutorial Folded stainless steel handle and tang pin balisong

    Thanks for taking the time to post this great tutorial. Learned a lot here. Do you hand hammer the tang pins in? If you hand hammer them how do you make sure they go in straight? I've done it this way a few times and every now & then they are slighty crooked. Mike

    Very light balisong

    Copper pins are a really nice touch. Great work. Are the G10 handles heavy enough for a good flip? Mike
