Good video man, I'm about to buy a bm42 i found someone was selling in a forum and this makes me more confident in buying it and knowing it's the real deal
Thanks for the comment, and i agree, if you can find the fake for a good price it'll last as a good flipper, with some loc tite. lol although they're still heavier and i'm glad i paid more money in the long run for the real one :) thanks for watching man.
i got mine from a pawn shop in kentucky, i drove there from indiana just to get it lol it was pretty tore up so i sent it in for repairs at benchmade and now it's pretty bad ass, the whole story about it is in my bm 42 review part 2. :)
the flipping of the fake one is pretty good, i would loc tite it for sure, and it's a little more on the heavy side but not to bad, i flipped it for a long tome before i had the real 42 and got really good with it
yea that's about how long it took me to get mine, another site you can try if you don't like this one in the description is iOffer.com there are some guys on there who sale the fake ones but they're about 50 dollars each, that's where my friend who is also into balisongs got his, all of the fake ones are from china so it's a long wait for shipping no matter where you buy them unless you buy a used one from the U.S.
Yes the fake ones are actually pretty good, with a little bit of loctite they could be a trustworthy knife. they are a little heavier than the real ones but not to bad. ioffer.com is where i got some of mine. you could get one for 25 bucks on there and have a few choices of black or standard or various blade types. sorry for the late reply
if you want to then i say go for it. it's not going to break easy at all. if you loc tite the screws you will be good to go, but they are sharp so be careful!
they're all about the same. i think my fake 42 is the most flimsy, but the way they make them ever latch isn;t identical. You'd just have to see what happens if you get one. but they still work, i hope this helps :)
Awesome, I ordered 4 (2 reg and 2 practice) and a SmallFly in Blue from a different site. Great Vid BTW.Can you suggest any good flipping tutorials on youtube?
I found a fake one for 37$ with free shipping (hongkong air mail) a spring latch (just like the real one) its stainless. and the handale is one mulded pice of steel! i think i will buy it!
idr man, i'm sure it's not month, if you get halfway through the check out with out going all of the way through it should show you, depends what kind of shipping you go with.
i actually ordered it from a different place than what the link has, but i can't imagine the website in the link would take any longer than standard shipping.
Your wrong about one thing as far as I can see. Real benchmades do put their numbers under the butterfly. My 42s springer is under as well as my 51. Great video though thanks!!
wow, it took me forever to reply, im very sorry, but ive actually sold my fake one months ago, i'm sorry, but they aren't to hard to find if you keep looking, sorry for the delay, if you've already found another knife then yay! lol
Mr balisong guy, I have a real bm 32 and a clone.the spring latch on the clone wont stay closed, just pops open all the time.know a way to fix that? Thanks.
+fuzzypug77™ yea,you have the clone on the bm42 or the bm 62? I have a bm62 clone that did come with that little orange driver.too bad the bm32 clones latch wasnt the adjustable kind.i also have a microtech metalmark clone and the latch can be adjusted on that one,too bad its heavy as heck.fortunately i have a real metalmark for when i go on one of my secret missions where ounces can mean the difference between life and death.

they have been harder to find i think but last i checked the fake 42's are still there, just gotta dig further than you used to
I found a fake one for 37$ with free shipping (hongkong air mail)
a spring latch (just like the real one)
its stainless.
and the handale is one mulded pice of steel!
i think i will buy it!
for both the real and the fake 42 they can both be loctited, but the fake is highly recommended the come loose quite a bit
Have you bought the spyderco spyderfly fake there and is it a decent flipper, or will it fall apart and which do you recommend spyderfly or bm42
i think the sight did actually go down, try ioffer.com ill fix the link in my description just look up bm 42 or follow the new link :)
Site is legit, right? How long should I expect shipping to take?
idr man, i'm sure it's not month, if you get halfway through the check out with out going all of the way through it should show you, depends what kind of shipping you go with.
i actually ordered it from a different place than what the link has, but i can't imagine the website in the link would take any longer than standard shipping.
How long did it take for the fake to get to you from this website?
Shipping wise...
so i should buy it?
because i buyed a vary cheap (sandwich one) and it broke and game me a rally cute cut!
If they got rid of the logos, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
how is the fake one for flipping?
can you tighten the screws or loctite them?
sweet man, you're going to have fun. and i have a bunch of tutorials, also i really like calvinnation's tutorials, check some of those out
Your wrong about one thing as far as I can see. Real benchmades do put their numbers under the butterfly. My 42s springer is under as well as my 51. Great video though thanks!!
Can we trust the site in the description?
the website says its down did it go down?
wow, it took me forever to reply, im very sorry, but ive actually sold my fake one months ago, i'm sorry, but they aren't to hard to find if you keep looking, sorry for the delay, if you've already found another knife then yay! lol
can't seem to find any 42's on ioffer anymore :-(
Mr balisong guy, I have a real bm 32 and a clone.the spring latch on the clone wont stay closed, just pops open all the time.know a way to fix that? Thanks.
+fuzzypug77™ sold the clone to a buddy,and it didnt have that adjustable latch that tends to come on chinese clones
+fuzzypug77™ yea,you have the clone on the bm42 or the bm 62? I have a bm62 clone that did come with that little orange driver.too bad the bm32 clones latch wasnt the adjustable kind.i also have a microtech metalmark clone and the latch can be adjusted on that one,too bad its heavy as heck.fortunately i have a real metalmark for when i go on one of my secret missions where ounces can mean the difference between life and death.
Would you wanna trade your 42 for a 45?
good review dude
this is very helpful
this site ship to cali?
Is that Bear Trap - Ultrablack (Excision Remix)?
i actually have bought from there before, i trust the site but i don't like the way the set up is.
i would assume so, i've only ordered from indiana
It says free shipping is 15-27 days.. .___.
it's all in the comments below man. but yea
thanks love
You should check out iOffer. I just bought one fake off of one guy called "hellofriend188". He's legit.
thanks but the video is bad. In reality check it should focus 100%
the camera is very shitty
its not a sandwich balisong!
i see over 100$ balisong that look crap next to thing 40$ clone!
maybe if i had two, but its my favorite knife and i had it tattooed on me so no lol sorry, it's my baby ^.^
lol sorry man, i've already sold it to one of my friends.
wow
sounds like all the other fakes out there lol, not a bad price though!
Ill take the fake one off your hands
