Unknown (Vintage?) Balisong Knife

Post by mthayres »

I hope that someone may be able to identify this Balisong knife for me. I have spent a lot of time but have come up empty. I have 3 pictures linked to my website. I am also curious if this knife has any value or if it is a cheap blade. I purchased it at a auction and have no information on it.

The folded length is 5.25"
The full length is 9"

Thank you to anyone that can help me.

Welcome aboard Mthayres.
Clearly marked Pakistan on the tang. These flippers are relatively cheap and not in demand by collectors. Still a cool bali, none the less.

I would be glad to sell it, but I have no idea what value it has. I apologise in advance if I should say this on this forum.
