Description
SQSQTV4IBK: Inked Squidtrainer V4 Balisong Trainer - Black
Squid Industries
The Squidtrainer was the first balisong trainer to be produced by Squid Industries. Since its inception in 2015, Squid has integrated feedback from flippers all around the world each year to make it the best flipper in its class. The Squidtrainer V4 has undergone significant change since its first production run in 2016. It features the following:
- Integral channel handle design machined from 6061 T6511 aluminum alloy
- Machined handle texture pattern and bead blast finish for better grip
- Rounded handles and blade spine for enhanced comfort and durability
- Precision ground heat treated 410 stainless blade for maximum smoothness, minimal handle play, and zero blade rub
- Press-fit stainless steel rods installed into the ends of each handle for better feel and momentum
- 416 stainless steel bushings tuned to each blade for the best tolerances
- Jimping added to the ends of each handle for increased grip and stability
- The Inked Squidtrainer V4 goes through a Diamond Like Coating process, which protects it against rust and corrosion
Made and Assembled in the USA
Each and every Squid Industries balisong is hand-assembled and tested to ensure that each unit is an exceptional flipper. All Squid Industries Balisongs arrive with a box, microfiber pouch, and sticker. Balisongs come thread locked.
