I love these, sadly the live blade ones are highly illegal in my country. That’s why I love the squidys and other trainers
I'm honestly glad the live blades are illegal in my country, makes it very hard to accidentally buy a sharp one XD
@@alansmithee419
I never want a live blade balisong, so i don't care about the legality of it.
I don't know anything about Hungary's knife laws.
I personally own an og squiddy I’ve beat the shit out of it man it’s been through hell and back kind of a deal n it just keeps coming back for more I personally recommend the og squiddy

Did you get it before it was discontinued?

“Do the TH-cam buttons I guess” 😂 cracked me up and I did em all
I've been waiting so long for this review
Doth be bestowed upon you dear fellow, at long last
Hello there. I really love your videos & you’ve been a huge inspiration to my flipping. I love how enthusiastic & fun you keep things but still being one of the craziest flippers I’ve seen. I got into flipping when I was 17 I bought a cheap $20 balisong off eBay, used it for a couple weeks & gave up. Now I’ve been flipping for almost 5 months. I’m very passionate but still have a long way to go. It’s helped me a lot with my anxiety & ADHD but overall it’s just very fun for me. I’d be an honor to win your signed Squiddy. Keep up the amazing work & Thank you for existing (You & your team). #SquiddyGAW IG @nostrilcake
Bru same 😫😫😫
Broooo sammeeee
I was literally exited when I saw this vid
I had a lot of success practicing aerials with the squiddy C giving me just enough confidence to start trying it out and significantly improving with the real deal.
You deserve so many more subscribers. Such quality content. When I looked down at the sub count I expected at least 2 mil and I was astonished. 5 star content I’d you ask me 👍
He have so much talent wtf
The videography
The flow of the vid
And also the way he reviews things
I'm sorry for my bad English tho
Im a Filipino...
Either way thank you for making this kinds of vids
I really am a fan
Balisongs were invented in the Philippines
@@Sgt_Long_Dong nice to know
@@Sgt_Long_Dong not really, they were brought to the Philippines and the Philippines perfected it

Never had a squid product, would love one
-TheMiko (on your dc)
The phrase "The squiddy is an evolution of balisong" is gonna make Nardath's ears bleed so hard he gets brain hemorrhages lmfao
Also, #SquiddyGAW
I want it ‘cause I just got a bladeless mod for mine. That’s about it
Thought the same thing haha
#SquiddyGAW I want this trainer because of the amount of fun i have with flipping balisong knives and that i've been needing a new trainer for a while then before I was gonna get a throwaway Squiddy on their website but anyways Thats why I want this knife and I hope too win. P.S. sorry for saying and so much.
#SquidduGAW I want one Bc my knife recently broke and my brother just went to college so my parents can’t afford to get one right now my ig is StodgyNarwhal you probably won’t see this but I hope you do
#SquiddyGAW, I have Recently gained a lot of interest in ballisong flipping, but I am sadly too broke to buy one so I have tried to make one out of legos but it sadly didn’t work, I would love to have a squiddy, I have subbed and liked the vid, sorry if I sound desperate, because I kinda really am. I really want one. But if you don’t pick me it’s alright. My Twitter @ is @TimTheAsianKid1
I love you you merged comedy into this informational type of vid. You do it very well and it makes me laugh
I really want a live blade but they're illegal in the uk.
Dang that sucks
Same thing here in Canada
It's only illegal if you get caught 🤷🏼♂️
@@TheLazyAmbitious me and the boys smuggling live blades into uk
Idk but i think there illegal in the U.S. too, if you take it out in public
#SquiddyGAW my finger got an ouchie from sharp metal
man, i'm just impressed conastnly how your managing to make these videos hilraious. Really good entertainment just talking about the same topic, good for you guys!!
just started Balisong, got myself a bottle opener trainer haha. Can't say i wouldn't find a squiddy useful!! #SquiddyGAW
You gotta release this videos soundtrack! The music is great and the topics flow together so nicely i barley notice the topics change!
I’ve been trying to get into balisong and I saw your channel I’ve watched like 6 videos and I just ordered my first balisong and I can’t wait to start thanks for your help 😁
Awesome video as always guys! The rave Squiddy gave me some ideas :D
Your tutorials helped me get through a flipping slump. Thanks!
#SquiddyGAW Ever since I was a kid, I've always wanted a balisong trainer. It would be a dream come true if I got this.
you can get one for less than 5 dollars on aliexpress it probably wouldnt be that great tho
@@BaboonSpeedruns i got my squiddy from squid industries
it only cost 45-70 dollars.
@@lnclucas4653 they are probaly still a kid tbf tho.
@@BaboonSpeedruns that’s what I was looking at but the ones on aliexpress take 70 days to arrive we’re I live
Just bought my first Squidy OG I've watched every video you've posted and finally decided to get this over the cheap amazon one.
My god this is so excellently made. I think you could also make some modding tutorials, I would really love to see it especially when I see your benchmade 51 or the short part with The 30$ bali when u show how to mod it
I keep cutting my fingers on my benchmade 51, I really should invest in a trainer, but as you said I would get used to the light version and have a hard time flipping the real thing so I’m not sure if I should just stick with trying to flip the real thing or just say fuck it and start having fun with a trainer and not have to worry about grabbing the bite handle on a sharp knife
Where gloves lol
You could tape it too.
I’d wish they would do more giveaways since then more people can get into the hobby without having to pay so much btw love your content
some trainers cost like 10 dollars
Found this channel 4 days ago, and you’ve already got me to buy the Kershaw Lucha and the OG squiddy!
sorry to bother you 5 months later lol
but do you like the og squiddy? I'm considering getting one but the weight thing he said threw me off. I'm new to flipping but my crap amazon knife is making it hard. Should i get an og squiddy? thanks
Hey I Watch your trick tutorial butterfly knife tricks and it actually helped me get better at balisong so thanks thanks a lot
Just discovered your gem of a channel a few weeks ago as I have been trying to get into the hobby!
#SquiddyGAW
I want it because I would love to really get into the hobby and I have heard so many good things about the Squiddy.
Welcome!! Good luck in the giveaway!
My dad had a knife but I can't find it so I was thinking about buying a trainer. I built a trainer using Lego. #squiddyGAW
I just got one this vid was the best you explained everything so good I bought of squiddy cause I’d look and white colour I can nearly do a wrist bump I have only done it 3 times I also bought my brother a squiddy u it’s really good but sadly one of the silencer o ring fell out at the park so now it’s lost keep up the good work!
My first balisong was delivered yesterday, i did zero research before it arrived and im hapoy i found your videos, They are so high quality damn
RAVE SQUIDDY RAVE SQUIDDY

#SquiddyGAW i want it because mine broke and im kirk on the patreon lol

This is interesting...
Something else to consider is that balisongs are super illegal in a lot of places. So in an environment like Australia, most of the negatives you mentioned don't count because they're just in comparison to real edged knives we just don't have. I love how comprehensive this review is though and i'm getting a squiddy B right now so that the sound of it doesn't drive my housemates insane.
I love your videos because they always have some of the funniest jokes and bring joy to my day
This was the first will hirsch video I ever saw and I saw the intro and that was my first impression of him
I changed my comment so you’ll never know what I said.
#SquiddyGAW
O.O
How would they do that? The thing that makes a squiddy a squiddy is that its plastic
@@psychsteeves4577 i Made a concept Art of the exact thing, its on r/balisong
Jakub Butcher i think i saw it on #balisongsale on insta if so its cool but its not a live blade
@@psychsteeves4577 www.reddit.com/r/balisong/comments/i8ywrf/evil_squiddy_version_2/?
I’m a teenager and I really like balisong flipping. The first and only balisong I have/made was out of Lego technik. After using the Lego one for a short period of time, I looked to buy a metal trainer. That’s when I discovered you’re channel with the amazon cheap knives. I couldn’t stop laughing the entire video because both of you are perfect entertainers together. So about the metal trainer : I did quite a bit of research and finally found out that any balisong/butterfly knife made out of metal is ILLEGAL where I live 😭 even trainers(Switzerland btw). Then I looked for a plastic one and discovered Squid Industries. I did more research and found this video. So here I am. #SquiddyGAW
you have convinced me to buy the OG Squiddy, I just bought it. Thanks for the very detail video, keep it up.
just bought the squiddy thanks to your review hommie !! thanks man!! I made sure to use ur code!
10:15 piss waterfall yes i know I'm a 7 year old lol
what was the point in mentioning u are 7yrs old
Hahah I saw it too

@@hdsn.b to help with the joke???
I like the original squiddy look the most, and I think a blank white is nicely customizable. and I like is 2 dot eyes with no nose although the cat blade is the only one with a nose I'm a fan of. I ordered a squiddy from squid industries and it'll come soon. I'm looking to draw some on the plastic, maybe using permanent markers, or acrylic paint, I might spray paint it a blue color and use some matte clear coat I just bought.
Love your videos keep up the good work
I love your videos, they're really funny and so well made! And also you made me regain interest in balis ahahaha

I love the beginning and of the vid so much and I love the entire vid
Just bought one for my first dive into flipping. I’m from Germany, so it’s pretty difficult to get a balisong here. Very curious, thanks for providing me with the information to decide for the OG!
holy damn, this man is underrated as hell
Definitely a decent start to Balisong. Although I just got a GlidrCo Artic and just got my Girlfriend a Mako v3. Soooo much different to flip a real trainer and I can see myself getting so much better now.
#SquiddyGAW
I'd love to get a squiddy for my GF's youngest sister. She saw us flipping our squiddys and was so enamored. We even taught her a few tricks and she's only 9. Lol

#SquiddyGAW because i don’t have any actual balisongs, only one that I build out of legos (i don’t know how to contact you, but we will find a way!)
I got into this hobby because of this channel, keep up the good work! #SquiddyGAW
Thank you so much!
Thank you! i had a garbadge 15 dollar balisong and now i got a squiddy i really reccomend it
thanks for the video!
I just found you channel like a week ago but so far Love every video I have seen
#SquiddyGAW Don't have balisong yet but I love to get into Balisongs and I cant say that the squddy would't help me
Made in abyss figure (4:27 in the right)
I see you are man of culture as well
"it is cheap" the thing costs like 60 dollars!
*relatively LOL
Thank you I am looking for a Bailsong I can flip in school and I appreciate this video
Just bought a Squiddy with your code! It might not be a TR00 KVLT BALISONG like the purists might say but it seems like a really cool stim toy!
I was scrolling through TH-cam and saw your channel, ever since I’ve been trying to get into the hobby, itd be awesome if I could win so I could start the balisong journey :)

It’d be easiest to contact me in instagram @justin.mccandless
Brooooo I love my squiddy sooo much. It’s such a fun trainer and I think it would be a good gift for my friend who likes flipping #SquiddyGAW
Just ordered a squiddy today, thank you for helping me to decide which one!
I found a way to make my regular squishy nearly silent with very thin insulation foam that I just cut to fit the inner lining of the handle so that the blade doesn’t stick to the handle and what not
I feel violated, the squiddy is my main Bali 😭
i think it lasts for 6 months for if its ur main then you have to spend another 40 if ur planning 2 buy another one if it breaks
Hi

@@Novristxch yea I'm only a beginner so I didn't want to spend too much but not on a clone and I wanted one of decent quality

Hello Will, the reason I'm joining the giveaway because I can't really find/afford any trainers online because of the virus. I recently got into flipping (from your how to get into flipping video) but after my cheap balicomb broke after 3 days I didn't really get to practice again. I wish the best for whoever is winning this giveaway!
Keep making your quality content! Your channel is too underrated
Hey Will so I just received my squiddy yesterday I am a beginner flipper I love my squiddy so much but I have only been flipping it for 1 day and the screws already loosened and almost fell out I thankfully caught it before it fell out I have only been doing ricochets and a few very simple tricks I can’t keep the screws tight now I don’t have a t10 which I need to get I flip for a few minutes and they are almost out again I don’t have loctite but was told it came loctited so I wouldn’t need it what would you recommend just get a t10 and tighten her up ? Or try to loctite it myself (or both 😂?) (edit just got a t10 and some loctite worked poifect!!! Flips like a gooooodest now I used loctite blue 242 for anyone wondering worked perfect 👍🏻)
update?
I’m getting the Squiddy-B for my birthday and am really into Butterfly/Balisong knifes right now
Why is this channel so high quality yet only has 40 thousand subs
Because that’s life
Bruh at 5:56 right after he said "dashed" I literally got a Doordash ad. lol
When I first found this channel I thought it would have like 1mil subs
the intro is so legendary 😭
Thanks bro. Used your code for two squiddy b and a maintenance kit
Does it still work?
My first balisong was a lego one it was made from thise sticks that you put the lego pins in and it worked like a balisong a real one and I learned so much from it
Just got my Squiddy as an upgrade from the horror story of the spider knife. Its amazing! I'm just a beginner but it flips so well and so smoothly :3 The white looks so clean and and feels very durable, don't hesitate, get this!
No way you bought the spider knife.
I am sorry for the loss of the 20$ for what's effectively the war crime of the balisong community.
That first b roll was freaking awesome 😂
I messed up my brand new squiddy c while modding it and it’s now completely stiff. What can I do to help it? The screws are loose and it’s covered in kpl.
oh wow, this was made a day after my birthday, if only i found this video sooner
It’s almost like he’s gonna say something bad about it then remembers that he’s sponsored by them and then says something good😂
Just saw the made in abyss figure, i literally just started re watching it yesterday XD
I have a question how do you also custom laser engrave the handle as well like it’s on the blade squid industries logo also how do I put your code shrill in?
What is your opinion about using a training knife to train with? I know that sounds like a stupid question, but does it instill bad habits to use a knife that dosnt let you know when you screw up?
I'm going with the squiddy b because a lot of people say that it makes it easier to switch to heavier knifes and its more durable! thanks squid industries :D
Im a new flipper. Just got my first yesterday. It's a 12$ off Amazon so it's not the best balisong there is. And I was just wondering if this is worth the price. And I should get it? Or go ahead and wait? Thanks
Can you buy thicker washers to have less play since it would fill the space that gives the handle more play. Would that work?
Can you please tell me or send the link to your yellow case for transporting your balisong knives? Thank you
Just got myself a Squidy-B today, so it’s funny that this is on my feed
I love your videos man! Im just starting as a balisong flipper and your videos have helped me so much! #SquiddyGAW
As always, nice review!
#SquiddyGAW I actually wanted to get a squiddy to take it with me when I'm travelling
OK I have a suggestion for a knife. It's been a knife I've been using for about a solid year to learn on and keep me occupied. It's the flick black balisong on grindworx. It's $9. But it has run very well for me for a while. It's loose but it's got a great feel!
I also always watch your videos thay are really good
Can you please tell me ALL of the places this is available or sells because i was gonna buy the squiddy yesterday but it was expensive my dad said to wait a month to see if its available other places he also said it because the delivery was 1 to 4 months but with the fast delivery 2 to 3 days but it was very expensive
Will: my petrion is a solid 4 out of ten. Me: I am convinced
