Learning to flip and fold a butterfly knife on command takes time and patience. It helps to have an unsharpened blade too! Now you can have both the weight and feel of a dangerous balisong and a safe dull blade to practice with when you pick up your Blue Helix Butterfly Trainer!

The region of Batangas in the Philippines lays claim to the development of the folding fan knife, or more commonly, butterfly knives. These weapons have a unique passive open and close design that keeps the blade safe in the handle frame or exposes the blade for instant self-defense or utility use. The transition in between an opened or closed state makes the handles flap around like a butterfly, hence the name it goes by. These tricks are stunning to watch, with master flippers barely missing their delicate fingers as they toss and spin the fan knife around. But they didn't start out so good! And they most likely started with a butterfly trainer.

Before jumping into sidekicks and catapults, it's important to start with an unsharpened practice balisong that will feel and flip just like the sharpened version. This beautiful blue butterfly trainer is 440 stainless steel and has vented handles to reduce the overall weight to 6 ounces. The dull blade flips around the handles on rivet pins that secure the pieces together, and a swinging bar at the bottom will keep the handles together whether opened or closed. Folded up, this training butterfly knife is about 5.5 inches, and reaches out to 9.25 inches unfolded. The handles on these butterfly trainers have a twist to it, and we mean an actual twist! The crest and trough design gives more grip for your hand while not compromising the anodized blue coating. The blade has a broad dull edge, so it won't cut through butter. Maybe warm butter, but that's all! Your fingers are going to be safe and sound!

Pick up one of these Blue Helix practice butterfly knives for yourself and for a friend so you can perform trick battles once you both get good! Start with this safe and affordable option that allows you to drill your technique before you go with a sharper, scarier blade in the future. For now, this twisted handle butterfly trainer will keep you busy from one day to the next!
