Balisword

Balisword

A balisword is an exceptionally large balisong knife. Typically, the length of the sword when opened is around 37 inch, with the blade at around 17 inch (43.18 cm) and handle at 20 inch.

Unlike the balisong, the balisword is not generally used for performing tricks ("flipping"), as the handles and blade maintain enough momentum to cause injury if they were to close on a hand.
