When you start flipping butterfly knives, you need to own a butterfly knife. As a beginner, I recommend getting a training butterfly knife. Luckily, our store offers a variety of trainer butterfly knives, such as the best-selling Vulp, the top tuning fork trainer balisong-Trident, and the Hydra with a look of live blade balisong, which I must especially recommend.
As I mentioned before, the Hydra trainer balisong has the appearance of a real butterfly knife but without the danger of cutting. When practicing with the Hydra butterfly knife trainer, the false blade gives you the thrill without the risk of cutting your fingers, which is “kill two birds with one stone”.
In terms of craftsmanship, mirror polishing is employed on the Hydra's handles, retaining the metal's original texture and luster. On the other hand, the handle material is made of high-hardness 7075 aluminum, ensuring that the Hydra balisong trainer won't easily deform or damage. This material also has excellent corrosion resistance.
Most importantly, the Nabalis Hydra practice butterfly knife is incredibly lightweight, ensuring your hand won't quickly become uncomfortable during practice, effectively extending practice time and improving efficiency.
Nabalis Hydra balisong training knife offers two blade styles to choose from: the Japanese Tanto Hydra trainer and training butterfly knife with Bowie blade.
