Cold Steel Knife Paradox Folding Legal Balisong
The Paradox is designed from the ground up to specifically mimic a traditional Balisong or Butterfly knife in every respect but one - it cant be opened with one hand! Thats right, the Paradox is not a switchblade, gravity knife, or assisted opener and cant be opened without the use of both hands. So, while it looks like a classic Butterfly knife from the early 80s, and feels like one in your hand, it isnt. Its a legal Balisong!
Its twin handles feature two integral springs that are similar to a conventional slip joint folder. Originally pioneered in our Black Rock Hunter, they are designed to rotate 180 degrees around the blades unique split tang and use strong opposing spring tension to lock the blade open or hold it firmly closed. Dont worry about it taking two hands to get it into action, since once its opened it will never close inadvertently. Plus, its locking mechanism is impervious to the most violent stress and shock imaginable.
Every detail of the Paradox is a testament to Cold Steels renowned craftsmanship. The leaf shaped blade is hollow ground from imported Japanese AUS 8A Stainless (instead of the cheap steel used by our competitors) and, due to the latest advances in heat treatment, it offers a thin, ultra keen edge that lasts.
The skeletonized handles are CNC machined from solid billets of 6061 aluminum (instead of being cheaply cast out of zinc) and feature a hard-anodized coating to reduce scratches and oxidation. If youre a Balisong fan, but dont want to take the risk of being arrested, the Paradox is a terrific alternative. Clip it to your waistband or pocket where it screams "CUSTOM HAND MADE BALISONG".
