Squid Industries
Squid Industries was founded in 2016 to create high-performance balisongs (butterfly knives) with flipping as the central focus. Squid Industries balisongs and balisong trainers are proudly made in the USA using precision manufacturing processes such as CNC machining, fiber laser cutting, and double disc grinding. Our industry-leading products are designed by and for flippers.
Initially starting with balisong trainers, we have since expanded our production to include live blade balisongs. Squid Industries trainers are available at Squidindustries, while our live blade knives can be found at Squidindustriesknives.
