How to make a Balisong (Butterfly Knife)

Step 4 The blade

now to make a blade! at long last! I made my blade tan-to style (a tanto is a ninja knife) but feel free to improvise! make lapu lapu swords, combat knives, goreswords and even small keys! so first part is to make the rotation piece. make sure this fits with your handles so that they can go 180 degrees. then you can make the blade. it must be smaller than the handles of course.
