Anybody know a way to close a balison from ice pick position? Thanks.

Hold the non bite handle, drop the bite handle, spin it 180 in your hand, bounce the blade off the back of your hand and swing to close. Not hard anon,

*Bounce the bite handle, not the blade

latch drop or backhand screwdriver. Bandhand screwdriver is safer and seems more reliable. Literally learned this last night, time to git gud

Thanks man. Glad you understood that I was looking for something flashy rather than just a simple closing. Cheers.

let me see if I got this one.... AHEM. Release bite handle, rotate safe handle up, or use forces to fully reverse, then clasp the bite handle to the safe handle when it completes rotation.

Just grab it with your other fucking hand and close it. I never saw the point of knife theatrics.

it's fun.

It's all an elaborate prank.

from the position as in the picture:
release the bite handle, let it fall and cover the blade. Spin the knife on the z axis with your thumb and index finger. Do a quick motion with the wrist to bring up the bite handle and blade, catch the bite handle. Pop the latch back in with your thumb.

Quick, easy, really hard to mess up, if not at all flashy.

essentially, whet >>33999452 said

I would pinch the latch between my thumb and index finger, and swing it by the latch to close it. Probably what the other anon referred to as a latch drop

Considering balisongs are illegal for carry in most of the US and the knives themselves are either worthless bullshit or expensive the answer to your question is "because it's fun".

Would you rather just stare at his phone at every available opportunity, vape or collect fidget spinners?
