It's obviously a CCC but if you like it that is all that is important :TU:

As much as CCC's get shit on, some can still hold their value. Don't let all the hype around the popular expensive balis sway you from checking anything else out!

Just started flipping? Hard to find decent Balis in the $30-$60 range? The Search Ends Here!

Don't hold out for a BM42! Take that $400+ you are planning on spending and go get in line for an Alpha Beast! You won't be disaponted!

Re: Deal or not worth it?

I don't care for smaller bali's. I used my 32 for EDC cutting, and practically never flipped it. The main problem, with regards to flipping, is the lack of length you have to work with. The longer the handles, the more real estate you have, the easier it is to manipulate.

Re: Deal or not worth it?

smallfly is way cheaper than 32, they're still around on bladehq too.

if you're into smaller balis you won't find either the smallfly or 32 to be overpriced, they are amazing flippers.

I've also seen old BM30 and 31 go for about $100+shipping on random forums, just have to be lucky and find a deal. Some guy on youtube sold a BM31 for $105 a few weeks ago.
