    Oh I just wasn't paying attention while running through a couple techniques i picked up off youtube and accidently used the bite handle (handle the edge is toward), totally dumb mistake to do and I noticed it fast enough that I didn't cause more than a very small cut.

    Re: balisong flippin'

    OP: I spin a bit when I am bored. It really fun isnt it? I tend to need to be doing multiple things at once, so its really good for me, haha. What I spin is just a cheap-o. Not allowed to carry those in my state, so I bought a beautiful benchmade folder for carrying. VERY pricy, but I <3 it

    Of course Big Gunns does, well teenage Gunns did. Big Gunns has no need for weapons anymore for obvious reasons.

    Mainbutter has never needed weapons. Mainbutter is a lover, not a fighter, and he's darn good at what he does.

    But back on topic, I believe balisongs are not weapons. They CAN be used as such, but they are for the most part 1) tools and 2) 'dangerous yo-yos'

    Re: balisong flippin'

    I haven't carried any pocket knives regularly since I was an idiot like 4 years ago and forgot a knife in my backpack going through security at the airport. TSA gave me a huge hassle (my fault, but I still hate them) and it was annoying enough that I decided to make sure it never happened again.
