The Cold Steel FGX Balisong 92EAA delivers realistic training capabilities without the legal restrictions of steel butterfly knives. This 5-inch folder features Griv-Ex construction that mimics the weight and balance of traditional balisongs while remaining completely non-metallic.
What Makes This Different
Unlike metal training knives that face shipping and carry restrictions, the FGX Balisong travels anywhere legally. The Griv-Ex polymer construction provides 80% of the weight and feel of steel while remaining undetectable by metal detectors. Cold Steel engineered this trainer to replicate the exact flipping mechanics of their steel counterparts, making skill transfer seamless when transitioning to live blades.
Key Features
- 5-inch Griv-Ex polymer blade with partial serrations for realistic training scenarios
- Full-size balisong handles with authentic pivot mechanisms and latch system
- Non-metallic construction passes through security checkpoints legally
- Textured black Griv-Ex handles provide secure grip during manipulation
- Weighted design matches traditional butterfly knife balance points
- Durable polymer resists impact damage during practice sessions
- Legal to carry in most jurisdictions where metal balisongs are restricted
Training effectiveness comes from the authentic flipping action and proper weight distribution. Martial artists and knife enthusiasts can practice complex manipulations, aerials, and transitions without risk of injury or legal complications. The partially serrated blade profile teaches proper edge orientation during flips while the secure latch system prevents accidental opening during transport.
