Knife Review : Benchmade model 42 Balisong (BM42)

[thresher51]

its good to know that people care about good knives... I have had a 705 axis folder in my pocket for the last twelve years and I have bought this model 42, the infidel, pardue auto, mchenry and Williams auto...I never use any of those besides my axis to cut anything ever..,I love this company...

[droidguy21]

Why are balisong knives illegal?

[TheMagicalTouch]

@droidguy21 i dont know. altho if you want one just for doing tricks get a trainer, you wont get cut and its not illegal :D

[9snaker]

@darththork99 xD who guessed :D

to tell the truth that's the only reason why I'm here... otherwise I had never watched tzhat video (with 99,999%)

[syafiq757]

[SUPERSPARTA41]

[fatboy3992]

[pinoy51289]

[devintravis0121]

should i get a butterfly knife of switch blade i have blenty of folders i want something els

[Cheeze939]

In comparison to guns, I find that the Benchmade 42 is like the Colt 1911, because of the badass classic design of both :3

[TheDPG10007]

i live in canada, can i get this legally? and if so where can i order it from canada?

[thgirwjt]

@TheDPG10007 calvinnation has a bunch of balisong videos, and he lives in canada. ask him and i'm sure he could help you out.

[CokenOpi]

[evildude109]

I just bought one, it took me forever to find one. Oh my God. It's amazing.

[MinecraftUndSoWeiter]

I'm searching for the benchmade 42 butterfly knife with metalic black handle and blade (like the two who has "hit girl" in the movie "kick ass")

[Zoobug97]

Is there another balisong knife that has the same kind of spring latch?

[timesplitingking]

Benchmade announces the Model 62 Balisong Knife for 2012! The BM 62 knife features a D2 Tool steel Weehawk blade with razor sharpness. The handles are skeletonized to reduce weight and sport a polished stainless steel finish. Sandwich style construction with stainless steel back spacers. The 62 Bali also features Zen pins and the classic T latch to secure the knife open and closed. Made in the USA. -Blade HQ description

[HowWolo]

so you guys feel really tough having one of those in your pocket huh ? pussies

[Koolkid736]

@HowWolo fucking dumbass. if you cant figure out why you are a dumbass, check into a mental hospital.

[HowWolo]

[xxspudyxx2]

Dear santa...

[TheLetsTryGamer]

[HowWolo]

[ThedarkOscuro]

hit girl xd

[cutlerylover]

@Discofootman only people who will like are other morons...

[cutlerylover]

@Discofootman you need to watch my other videos, this one was purchased 2 years ago for $145 on the forums just because you dont have one doesnt mean mines fake ;) I have owned 8 ofr these mostly back when they are easily available, gbet your facts straight, no need to be jelious

[mjk275]

@cutlerylover What web site do you recomend to get a Benchmade 42 Plz replie Thatnk you ahead of time Merry Christmas

[BrownieTimePictures]

@cutlerylover i would love to buy one just like this one, would you have any idea where i could look to buy one?

[Russellonfire]

@cutlerylover Which forums?

[mjk275]

@Discofootman fuck u ass clown



[xBunnyHero]

@Discofootman actually, it is real. you can tell by the shape of the latch head.

you can also tell by how it is carved at the bottom where the latch goes in to the hold the handles together.

also, the handles are a single piece of titanium that is carved, which he mentions in the video, another factor proving that it's real.

the holes carved into the handles also prove that it is real by how they are detailed.

by the way, thumbs down.

[MrUserFriendly007]

@Discofootman you got owned

[MrUserFriendly007]

@Discofootman FUNNY NO LIKES FAIL



[FatGuyWithAKatana]

@Discofootman if you knew anything you'd see that the text and logo on the blade are the correct color, the grind on the blade and swedge are correct and the handle thickness is correct, the cutouts for the latch are clean and done properly, it's as real as it gets. you can't really tell the difference in color from the stainless steel ones and the titanium handles.

[TheCardGuy521]

@Discofootman If you think that 1 is fake yours must be fake ^^

[GmanAlde]

Does benchmade make a trainer

[odstderek]

I just got a benchmade 42 from a gun show. It was a little beat up and has some scratches, but I cleaned it up and it's fantastic, better than anything else I had. I'll post a little video on it later :D

[GmanAlde]

Is there a Benchmade trainer balisong

[sbeddo1]

is this knife still in production??

[Kesslerification]

@sbeddo1 Read the uploader's comment, son

[spezz01]

[AlexxRapz]

@gauchitosimone Oh the irony!

[isdfgbsdf]

incredible review. you are a pro.

[anonymousipodtouch]

I want one so bad

[MegaERIC2003]

Wow!! I didnt realize how rare dis 42 is!!! I bought mine back in 2003 for 120$ brand new from da cutlery store. 9 yrs later dis knife still works like brand new!!!! Hahahaha to da rest of da people dat dont have diz amazing knife there never gonna make again!!! (^…^) ..!..

[TomasBulk]

Could you make a review on the M Tech Twist?

[1998bigben]

is this worth getting if it is 50 bucks?

[StrikeScape]

@1998bigben 50 bucks? you mean 500?

[nick47ification]

@1998bigben hey man if you found one for $50, its a fake. or a knockoff. there is a guy that makes a video on the differences in the real and the fake one. just type in "fake benchmade model 42" and he will explain everything. i just dontn want ya wasting money on a knockoff man. good luck with your flipping

[totalbrootal]

they need to start making these again

[mward12892]

I understand it's extremely hard to find this knife now. I"ve looked for it for a long time and haven't been able to find one being sold for under 500 dollars. So I was really curious, what's a good knife that i'd be able to get now? I understand this is the best, but is there a second best I WOULD be able to get that you'd recommend?

[MinD153]

4,2 inch blade so it's illegal :P

[thatsmahboi1337]

@MinD153

that is, to carry it concealed in public, you cunt swabb:P

[LeoprdGckosHaveSpots]

@coverman97 its literally the most know balisong out there problem is it was discontinued months ago and you wont find it on any website...expect to pay $300 or more if you can even find one new for sale on the secondary market through a knife forum...

[ProRay298the]

@cutlerylover do you know exactly why it was discontinued?

[royceda32]

@cutlerylover for the love of god cutlerylver please tell me where i can find one!!! ihave looked everywhere online they r either over $500 or out of stock. please tell me where to find one i might die 0.o

[cutlerylover]

@royceda32 these are no longer made and not going to be in stockl on ANY internet website, only palce you might find it is online on a forum for sale like bladeforums or knifeforums or balisongforums but yeah expect to pay no less than $300 for one...or try local knife shops in stores you walk into there might be some left, but forget the internet sites

[royceda32]

[InuyashaandKagome129]

@ownageairsoft Where?

[ownageairsoft]

Found

[saltyshellback]

Wow, this was a hard one to find :-)

[mexistache760]

@saltyshellback was that sarcasm? Because since it's a tag you only have to search revolyreltuc cutlerylover on youtube and all the videos come up

[saltyshellback]

@mexistache760 Yes and no. If you just put revolyreltuc, you get a bunch of other junk. I had to use different combinations before all of them came up

[Dafoodmaster]

Found too..

[mcshipreck]

found

[70delacruz]

so you sound like u know a lot about balisongs, i was hoping you would make a "how to" video on like wat to look for or whats good or not wen buying ur first balisong

[DeputyFifey]

I had a very cheap cobra butterfly knife that broke today, had it for about a month. Now I am trying to get a benchmade 42. Since a lot of people recommend them and they are good quality. I wish I would've known cheap balisongs break fast...

[ghlegond3]

I cant help but wonder......why dose is have a latch gate if the spring hold the latch open anyway?

[Killeom]

@ghlegond3 So when you flip it around, the latch won't move.

[hifatpeople]

whats tf2

[MisterCosmiic]

@hifatpeople Team Fortress 2, a fps that people are super fan boys of, but it is a pretty good game

[hifatpeople]

@MisterCosmiic looks cartoony and weird.

[MisterCosmiic]

@hifatpeople ya its a little weird

[omegadude255]

amazing balisong.. but i heard they are discontinued.. IS THIS TRUE?

[TankMedia]

@omegadude255 Unfortunately yes... I wish I had gotten one while I still could :\

[ghlegond3]

if this has a spring that keeps the latch out, how come it also has a latch gate?

[HomeOnASaturdayNight]

Any ideas where someon could buy one of these?

[Kackamann1]

Could you make a video where you are showing us all your knifes?

[XxJRostroxX]

How can I find out where these are legal and not?

[PlainAverageRob]

I had a cheap butterfly knife, but I was too rough on it so the handle snaped :( I need another one but they're illegal where I live :( :(

[yippermasturcatthing]

HELP!!!!!!! i have a balisong and i have no idea what kind it is...my dad gave it to me and even he doesnt know...it has a whole piece handle construction and does not use screws it also has little diamond shapes cut into almost all of the handles and it has a t-latch....please help

[redandbluebeater]

@yippermasturcatthing Probably a cheap bali. dont get too excitied, it's not a BM for sure.

[yippermasturcatthing]

@redandbluebeater i was expecting that....i do know its old tho

[saggyjimmy]

@yippermasturcatthing Diamonds into ALMOST all of the handles?? How many handles does it have?

[TIMOTHYSAARINEN]

I have 5 different cheapo balisongs that I like to play around with, but this Benchmade 42 is a whole different ballgame! Seriously high quality. Too bad they're out of production. I'd buy one in a heartbeat. I live in Maine and I'm pretty sure they are illegal here.

[TheBattlekiller59]

HEY I WANT THAT KNIFE 20 BUCK

[G1NZOU]

@TheBattlekiller59 It's worth more than $20, also don't go mad with the caps lock.

[REEEFTA]

it sucks that we cannot get Balisongs in Australia. Nice review though.

[tomspeed2005]

who know any online shop to get it?

[betawomanizer]

Thumbs up for Hit-Girl

[erickbodom10v312]

and what do you put on a dab on the screw when you take it out? oil?

[erickbodom10v312]

do you have to oil it once or like twice a month or what?

[Jordan3445]

EVERYONE BEWARE! there is a fake bm 42 that can be found on aliexpress (dot com). the only difference is the feel and it is sliightly skinnier than this and it is only about 50$

[Dionscott55]

Hey cutlerylover i was wondering howmuch does a bm42 go for that is in great cond.?

[cameronsayers1234]

[rodonkey10]

[Kylef7735]

[cowmanthethird]

[BlackOpsNNJA]

[94Jkim]

What kind of Loctite are you using? and What kind of oil should I use? thank you :)

[MrMetalBurrito]

Do your friends hate you? I always hear your doorbell, and you never answer.

[squidvis]

@MrMetalBurrito I think that's a clock my grandma has a clock that makes that exact same tune when it's another hour.
