DESCRIPTION

Follow the path of the Filipino knife fighter and the blinding blur of the deadly balisong in motion - its whirlwind lethality - can be yours. Three experts, having combined their knowledge of the balisong, martial arts and self-defense, show you the basics of techniques perfected in the Philippines over the course of 400 years: concealing, drawing, flipping and gripping the balisong; checking and rolling; and the four main phases of training.

• Paladin Press (1970-2017) - The end of an era :(

Stickgrappler's Note: I am guessing the Paladin site will be shut down at the end of the year and I'm archiving select Paladin Press pages to my blog to preserve an essential part of martial arts from 1970-2017. Archiving some of my favorite Paladin titles.
