Description

The Squidtrainer was the first balisong (butterfly knife) trainer ever released by Squid Industries in early 2016. The V3 is a culmination of feedback from thousands of balisong flippers across the globe to create the best flipper possible. In addition, it is also one our most durable models alongside the Nautilus due to it's heat treated 410 stainless steel blade. 

This new version features a crowned spine, more handle grip and rounding, and nearly zero handle play and tap. Whether you're just a beginner, intermediate flipper, or advanced balisong manipulator, the Squidtrainer V3 is the ideal balisong trainer for you.
