  • lmaooo this guy dancing around playing with knives will get a roundhouse kick from the back from chuck norris or any random person

  • Pekiti tirsia kali....oh yea baby!!! i study this style myself and i love it

  • What a fag

  • Fag

  • Nice dance!

  • @Baditdong bet you cant tell that same thing in that dudes face when he has a friggin bolo it both of his hands

  • those knives dont do any better while flipping around then throwing dirty socks at your enemies head.

  • @ipooyummystuff That's coz that is not an actual martial art. It's really meant to be used as a regular knife

  • all of you hipacritical people need to stop talking shit about this guy. you dont need to hate just because you can't do one damn thing this guy can. About the previous comment talking about "being able to walk up to him and slap him" he would puncture your neck and kill you if you tried. people that do it for show are harmless. people like this that train to kill and be deadly. would slit your throat before you touch them. dont mess with a good bali user. or you will be cut badly. or dead......

  • balisongs r great ispetialy 4 intimidation people get scared even if im just fliping it

  • i dnt giva a fuck wat anybody says, the balisong knife iz the best defensive weapon that i keep in my pocket an i kno how to use it in any situation an the ppl that talk shit about it r the ones who jus dnt kno how to use it an make up excuses like it takes too long to open or itz jus for showing off lol

  • Filipinos are scary with knives & sticks. I'd just run from this guy. And I'm a big guy too...

  • I got a 6'3", CAUCASiAN black belter friend, walking in the streets of manila, one small PiNOY holdupper just asking for his wallet, brandishing a balisong! Used his black belter know how, started to fight off the lone small guy, he gave some BIG PUNCHES, all he got are DEEP and long CUTS, he gave up and gave the small guy his WALLET! This is true!

    Damn!

  • wtf

  • it looks like if you were dancing with youre self 3(

  • that's pretty cool, a lot better than I could do anyway. But I think someone with a gun would still win. hahah

  • @GremReaper73 Most deadly Fights which involve use of Guns are very close range up to 25 feet ( statistics from Law Enforcment in US and Europa ) , stop the Time that you need to draw aim and fire for a Revolver or draw operate slide (load) flip safety aim and fire for Semi-Automatics .

  • @GremReaper73 Now add the little Moment of Suprise when somebody suddenly pulls a Knife .... Unless the Attacker is pretty damn stupid or 8 Miles High on some Drug he wont come running at you with his Knife in plain View at a big Distance .

  • very good! mastering the art of balisong is very effective in real situation... aside from art, flipping and footwork like that prevents the opponent/attacker to grab the weapon out of your hand... hindi po sya bobo or ulol... peace tayo mga brother!

  • awesome!

  • Outstanding. his form is immaculate

  • To those who think this "fag" is just making "gay" little movements, please know that the Philippine Marine Corps implement these techniques in their training. And this martial art isn't only limited to knives, but also "bolos" (machetes), and other melee weapons.

    Also, just like the Europeans used to carry around rapiers in the streets and fight each other for their "honor," Filipinos, specifically Batangeneos(sp?), used to carry these around and fight for their honor when such matters arose.

  • PS. I'm also Pinoy. I know these things.

  • lol the funny thing about people who think dat hiz movements r gay just have no idea how lethal those movements can b.. they tlk all that shit cause dey wish dey could do half of the stuff he can ..an knives seperates the men frm the bioz, n e body can point an aim but it takes ballz to come within a foot of a person with a knife

  • last year someone attacked me with one of these, it gave me an eight inch long, 3.5 inch deep cut across my back, a well made balisong is lethal, no doubt. Oh and let me tell you something, there's no such thing as a knife fight, everything is over in about 7 seconds regardless, the "little moves" that this guy is using are each meant to be a killing blow. Go fantasize about street fighting some more before you make ignorant comments like this.

  • are you crazy or something just look at him his an idiot that thinks hes lethal or something just somebody get there and slap that bith

  • @Fighting31st not to erritate u but there is such thing as a knife fight if both of the opponents are using pcp

  • @Fighting31st it only takes about a second for a knife fight actually if one person is smart.

    (*here's a hint, you can hear a loud bang and a lot of gasps)

  • @omgwtfbbq6666 then that just proves ur a fuckn pussy cuss u use a gun in a knife fight...

    knife is for knife guns is for pussys

  • @CeeEmmz Actually no.......not if you bring a knife with a gun built into it.

    You brought a knife, so its fair.

  • The Beautiful Art Of The Balisong !

  • actually genuine balisongs are said to be able to pierce through a coin...

  • looks stupid can they cut a tomato XD

  • I dont think they can cut Tomato but im sure it can slice your dick in 10 little pieces even if it's 3 inch long!

  • nice......

  • If I stood against him, I think I would watch the whole show and then shoot him in the head from safe distance. :DD

  • i agree..lol

  • WOW!! very nice... try watching your knife all the way while fighting HAHAHA lol

  • wow ano ba to nag babalisong or nag dadance,nice man your like dancing!

  • wahahaha ang galing ahhh.. parang tanga lang, abno ba tong nasa video??? kung kaharap nya kahit butter knife sasaksak ko sa leeg nya e..

  • this is pekiti tirsia kali. search other videos to see application.

  • i live in brgy. balisong. . we dont flip and show this crap in fight. you can tell a true batangeno the way he open his balisong. .alam mo kasi ung papatay at hindi. .sa pagbunot p lng at pagbubukas ng balisong..ala iyan ay subok na!

  • balisong is lame compared to nunchaku

  • bobo kahit may nunchaku ka pa, pauulanan lang kita ng suntok!!! ampaw!!!

  • sayang lang yung mga suntok mo kung walang tatama

  • edi subukan mo ampaw!! ikaw siguro tongnasa video..

  • ULOL!!!

  • @Hakmashi your'e an ass. It depends on who is using the nunchaku or balisong

  • there is a weapon that is much more powerful than balisong and is called brain, try exersice it a bit

  • there....now i rest my case haha, there's a Filipino guy who agrees with me. This guy on the video is just a knifeslinger, and as for my previous statement, a in a real situation nobody would flip the blade the way it's shown on the video.

    Well the local person has said before me. Who will disagree with him eh? lol

  • Balis are a VERY powerful psychological weapon. They are no more dangerous than a regular knife, but because of their audio-visual display, they can cause panic and confusion. Most fights will end if you can show that you can flip a bali with dexterity because you'll scare the guy off OR he will focus on the knife and completely disregard your other attacks. Effectives in pure combat, a good closed bali will never fail, because it relies on YOUR grip, and not a mechanical device like folders.

  • balisongs are great fighting tools... when it is locked in the open position. Those extra flipping maneuvers are worthless in a real fight. First of all the guy's eyes was on the knife while flipping, 2nd when he flips it's slow, 3rd he limits his arms area of movement with those maneuvers thus eliminating extra defense or offense.

  • You flip your knife before a fight and it will keep you out of it. No one wants to fight someone that can handle a knife like that, Dumbfucks

  • LOL just give me 2 kali/arnis sticks, and if a guy flips like that before we fight I bet you his knife is on the gorund before he even knows it.

  • agreed. but only if you hit him b4 the balisong flies to your throat.

  • Its all show. Whats the point of all those extra moves if your in a knife fight? You really think some one is going to flip a knife around with the chance of dropping it, when his life is in danger.

  • yes......she audio-visual display of the knife's flipping makes the enemy panic and confused

  • and plus. the blade here is a "butterfly knife" has two pins on the handle which makes it unsuitable to be used in a combat situation without breaking. i guess real balisong might have a sturdier built blade-pin mount.

  • if you lock it it becomes very sturdy and good for fighting

  • ok real balisongf techniques might work...otherwise there is no point of being kept for so long in the Filipino martial tradition.

    But this video doesn't show anything in special. Either way the guy would have to stop the blade before doing a stab or slash as the one in the video does. he doesn't sling aroudn the blade.

  • your so stupid. Our army is unbeatable. Being Asian doesn't make you a good fighter. What makes a fighter a fighter is how far and how hard you're willing to take a fight to win or survive. What makes a fighter is his combination of flow, control, and brutality. Just because about seventy percent of Americans are useless and hopeless doesn't mean all americans can't defend themselves

  • This is the real stuff right here! Americans know nothing about balisong knife fighting or defense.

  • i'm american and i KNOW how to use a balisong one of my favorite designs is the kriss blade,although i've never had to use my bali in a fight seeing as how i would only use it if my life was in danger...you guys have made a beautiful weapon

  • wow ur awsome i just have a cheap one now but its because i just started

  • wow man ur oretty good almost as good as jonny grewaseonto

  • back in the Spanish ere the use of eskrima was prohibited in the phil so they practice it in a way of dancing, for the stupid Spaniards not to notice. I think.

  • yeah, ure right madeo. the use of bladed weapons was prohibited so that no rebellions could start. this happened after gabriel silang took up her husbands charge.. after that it was displayed in sayaw and sinulogs.. after that the spaniards caught on then eskrimadors practiced in the rice patties and in seclusion..

  • but theres some fuzz to where the balisong really came from. some sites states that balisongs where French invention.

    hhhhhmmmm......?

  • yeah thats bullshit. they just wanted credit for it.. they had blueprints but why wasnt it brought into the public eye thru them? people like to talk...

  • if the balis were made by ze french. why dint they developed an art of fighting for it?

    well a sketch on a piece of an old paper doesnt mean they are the ones who invented it........

  • Keep the Philippine Tradition going. BALISONG "BATANGAS" "Butterfly knfe"

  • I always thought that more than half of the balisong users don't know the first thing about knife fighting.I guess that the tricks would be like an intimidation ritual.Opening the knife in a fancy way kinda creates the impression that your good with knives :).

  • oh men teach me how to dance lake that..haha lols

  • yes, its part of a martial art.. a way to use the knives from eskrima... its not just intimidation and its not a "dance"... he is doing something similar to a kata u can tell by looking at the mans footwork...he can probably do it faster but he could risk injury..

  • Do people in the phillipines use this martial art in real fighing today?

  • yes, however I'm filipino and this doesn't really look like a martial art we do

  • yes 85% of deaths are by knives

  • sarcasm i hope.....

  • haha, sarcasm for most american balisong users that do it for looks/tricks.. there are freakin manuals about how to use them for fighting. and in my eskrima group we have balisong techniques.. its a beautiful weapon

  • your damn right it is

  • yes. eskrima is filipino street fighting basically. the knife is called vente nueve.. 29.. a man killed 29 men by himself just by using a balisong...

  • You mean no one whos not a dumbass and who knows what they are doing would hold their gun sideways.

    Anyway, he said "pimp" which makes me think of a thug wannabe. And yes, some dumbasses do hold their gun like that cuz I saw some thugged out guys at the shooting range doing that. The target was a silhouette that was out 5 yards and they missed 90% of the time and hit white paper the rest.

  • What I mean is only a dumbass would do that, and if you are saying it doesn't matter, then I doubt you have the skills and know how you claim. True "bad asses" don't troll around the internet bragging about it.

  • Poeticpanda will never post a video because then we'll see how full of shit he is, and what's more we'll see his pimply chickenshit mug. You've done military demonstrations? Where? Bending over in the toilet?

  • I think poeticpanda is a 12 year old tae kwon do 3rd dan black belt. You can tell by words like "dojang" (Korean dojo) and his BS about being so hardcore. A real fighter isn't so full of BS. Could someone notify his mummy and daddy about his pathetic trolling habits? What a naughty little boy, pretending to be a big man!

  • Not my style of knife (Amok) but I liked his dexterity with the double knife. I can see the utility in the balisog in it's concealment and rapid deployment. I wonder how it is with the metal grip if the blade came under pressure or got slippery? I notice the icepick grip seems preferred in the Filipino knife I've been watching. I'm only a beginner, but wouldn't all that circular motion be suseptible to meets and pick-offs? I'm a scaredy-cat and keep my hands very tight in-guard!

  • why dont you just post somethin or quit bein a stuck up little bitch

  • your like a fuckin child

  • i was refering to u by the way

  • until u post a video of urself doing some crazy shiiite like that dont talk.

  • you seem kind of stuck up poeticpanda

  • You dont know what you are talking about poeticpanda.

  • Frankly, you people do not know what you are talking about!! HandGuns are not practical at close range because its to easy to disarm a man with one. Do a search on here for "disarming handgun", you will see all kinds of techniques that can be used to disarm someone who has a handgun. HandGuns are better for medium range stuff but the farther you go out the less accurate they become.

  • It's an art form and a good demonstration of skill paying tribute to the Pinoy Balisong. We dont sit behind a computer hiding and typing away. WE TRAIN and work our skills to fight with weapons be it edged, impact , firearms and emptyhands. This extends to the people Mel teaches who are in the Military and Special Commando units- meaning - it's knowledge paid for in blood. Mabuhay ang cultura ng Balisong, may sariling atin!

  • Good and all but i would laugh if he was doing that to mug me... Also its funny coz some pimp could bust a cap in his ass faster than he can twirl his girly knives.

  • not if hes withing 15 feet pal...lol he'll stab him so fast b4 he can draw his gun

  • I agree with judoman98. Besides, a pimp can barely hit the side of a barn holding their gun all sideways and shit.

  • That's the real deal there. Stabbin' and slashing. Fantastically smooth transfers too. I know hundreds of tricks, but would hand over my wallet to this guy in a heartbeat. :)

  • bah, he can flip and toss all he wants pretty well but in the end he has to stop the blade to make the slashes and stabs.

  • If this were combat your jugular would already be cut by that knife.

  • pag totoong away kanina ka pa nasaksak~

    daming ritual -.-

    pis man ,V,,

  • Interesting., more an art form here than anything. ReSPEK>

    SIge Po!

  • Nice!

  • I think It`s good, but you can`t see any moves because he is much too far away.

  • nice!

  • Good Demo check this one out:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v­=pyduJTE78bg

  • nice, but that's just playing with the balisong. The guy in this video actually teaches how to use the weapon.

  • yeah, this is filipino martial arts. killin u with a balisong

  • Freakin' beautiful! Maganda man.

  • thats crazy

  • Guro Rommel rocks! :)

  • The one doing the demo is Master Rommel Tortal of Pekiti Tersia Kali. The video was taken Noveber 2005 at the University of the Philippines, Diliman Campus. You can see more clips here...

  • well he looks stupid in this video, only stupid inexperience person would flip a balisong like that in a real fight,

    and if it it just for exhibition, it doesn't look good, para lang syang lasing na nagsasayaw na may hawak na kutsilyo..BOBO

  • para kang BOBO wala kang alam kaya tumahimik ka!

  • @BlackGhost574

    mas BOBO ka, kasi marunong ako ng kali,

    krav maga, muay thai,at brazilian jujitsu, at

    nagawa ko na rin marami na kong experience

    makipag away sa kalye, pati sa mga may hawak

    ng kutsilyo at baril, ung gaong nasa video, marunong nga ng martial arts pero

    halatang walng experience sa totoong sitwasyon..

    wag mong masamain sinasabi ko, sinasabi ko lng kung ano ang totoo..

  • i smell a poser...
