Personally I’d like to see user balisongs be a little smaller and a little lighter to make them more pocketable but it’s hard to get to upset at a major manufacturer releasing more two handled knives.
I have a bit of a soft spot for this knife because the handle shapes remind me of the old KMart fish knife balisongs of my youth.
