@@kens5871 oh no my dude, after checking recent laws only one or two states make owning them fully illegal, maybe 5 others have restrictions on them mostly being they can't be carried, there are some states (Colorado for example) that allow edc as long as the blade isn't 4" it can be conceal carried. If its longer than 4" then I just put it on my belt sheath and open carry I've flipped all over the place for about 2 years no complaints just a lot of questions from non flippers.

FINALLY just got one myself. Absolutely LOVE it, too. Definitely the Bali for the guy that’s been watching too much Viking stuff on TV, and wants to daily a seax. Pocket clip is a pipe dream from Benchmade, as they discontinued them (but tooling up to do one myself). Too bad for many, as it makes one of the better big-fun-flipping-cooking knives out there (really! Not a joke). Beware the clones, though. They’re REALLY close, with the only tells being minute differences in blade finish and hardware.

This is without a doubt one, if not the BEST Production Balisong in the world, "Benchmade 87". Sadly many get scared of it, and give up their training. If they only could hold out 1-3 months, and I'm sure they would have experienced something that they never thought. Almost a perfect beast of a Balisong. It's just fantastic, amazing, a piece of Art and to have made such a bali is nothing more than exceptional 👏 ❤. People, you MUST give this Balisong a chance. Don't dear it, be careful of course, but when you face it, learn to control it, you will experience greatness.🙏❤☀️

I'm a bali lover and i have a different opinion on it in which if i had heard before i bought the 51 or 87 i would have gotten neither of them. I flip my butterfly knives almost everyday and i own a double edge custom by jason lyons , an alpha beast, a carbon fiber tanto replicant, a modded alt replicant, a channel alphabeast, a dirty dozen alphabeast, a benchmade 42 first production, a modded 43 by matt cook, two bm 51's and an 87. i own and flip all my knives , but the ones that dissapoint me by far the most and the two benchamde 51's and the benchmade 87. I hate the 87 so much its the one that goes to work with me everyday because i dont care if it gets damaged. period. its not a good flipper imo as well as the 51. both have issues with size weight and balance. i wish i didnt pay retail for either of them the second 51 was on discount so i bought that with flyti scales but issue with flippability wasnt solved. and on the 87 bearings should have ZERO play. zero zero zero. jason lyons knows how to do bearings correctly but benchmade does not. and you pay 300 for a knife that is a pile of shit aka the 51 or the 87. theyre both like a golf cart theyre made of metal plastic and batteries just like a car, but you know the quality of a gulfcart is worse that is modern day benchmade balisongs. they charge wayyy too much for what they deliver in the balisong market. and btw the 62,63,67 are all the same way. i also have a jerry hom basilisk, look at your competition benchmade!!!! like fuck. TLDR: dont spend 300 or more on a bali unless its a good flipper which is NONE of modern day benchmade knives, because you can edc it but you can edc a good flipping knife. the balis from benchmade are LACKING its pitiful i would say $100 is fair for the 51,62,63,67 & $200 for the 87. but not what they are asking you can find plenty of other knives out there that are better for the same or cheaper cost. and a good balisong feels like a fixed blade when open because the tolerances are tight and it flows better. TTLDR: IF I WERE TO GO BACK IN TIME I WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT THE BM 87. BM51 . BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT WORTH THE MONEY AND BENCHMADE DOESNT SEEM INTERESTED IN FIXING THE PROBLEMS WITH THEM , and when you go to resell your knife you lose your ass with the current benchmades, but with a good bali , you might lose some money but not the way benchmade does, thats another way there quality is reflected.
