Nabalis Cheese Butterfly Knife Balisong Trainer, 6061 Aluminum, 420C Blade Material, Teflon-Coated, Public-Friendly Metal Trainer

Picked this up along with a Vulp pro.Although I find the Vulp pro to be an overall better product, for the price, I don't think you can find a better balisong, not to mention this thing SOUNDS amazing, better than the vulp pro in my honest opinion. I think the only thing it lacks is that the grip could be better, especially having a vulp pro to directly compare to. It still deserves a 5 star rating.Other things to note, lubing this balisong will result in a black gunk building up around the pivots, though I don't find that it hinders performance at all. But if you're overly worried about the cosmetic appeal, it is worth noting. The Teflon coating though, does feel very nice, and it gives the Cheese a very unique sound, that I just cannot get enough of. The cheese "holes" on the bite handle are a nice touch as well, I think overall the design here by nabalis is very well thought out. The weight is slightly handle biased, making it great for a beginner, but unlike a lot of other beginner balisongs, the tolerances are TIGHT. Absolutely no tap even after many drops, some may say the Teflon is fragile, but I've been flipping over hard wood and dropping it hard, and have yet to see a scratch. The weight distribution makes this a great balisong to flip. Fans are great, it Chaplins well (not as good as the vulp pro unfortunately, but that thing is just different)Overall, I think the value you get for the money, is top tier, and I cannot recommend the cheese enough, especially as a first balisong.

An astounding product, this is the first time I have jumped on Amazon to write a review on a product I have received on day one. I did extensive research on the best Balisong trainer out there in 2025 - period, not for the money (this one is affordable in comparison though to every contender), but just the best. The NAbalis Cheese came up in every flipper channels list, so I bit the rind and ordered it. The teflon coating makes all the difference in understanding momentum and fluidity in a live blade and the inherent dangers in flipping a live blade before you are ready. Ten minutes out and I am already understanding my mistakes with live blades in the past and why my Benchmades sit in drawers and not pockets. If you are a knife person AND a fidget toy lover, STOP here and order this thing as it will likely be out of stock by EOY. Word of caution, stay away from live blades until you are ready to own that risk and stay Cheesy. PS: it sounds amazing if that matters to you.

The bali flips great, no play or tap straight out of box, and so far has had amazing tolerances. On the Teflon coating care card is said don't drop on hard surfaces and it Ment it! I dropped this thing on concrete and rocks a few times and the Teflon is already starting to chip away a bit on the handle ends. Otherwise great trainer, sounds so satisfying great bali.

So I'm by no means great at flipping. That being said, for the basics I know it's fantastic and clearly capable of more than I can currently do. Fans great, basics aerials and icepick aerials are very consistent and predictable, it's smooth and extremely well tuned right out the box while dry. It also carries momentum pretty good for the basic rollovers and stuff I'm learning. Plus it sounds amazing, almost glassy. Nabalis just made another banger. Still gonna use my Nabalis canyon for my edc beater but the cheese is now my current best trainer, just don't wanna scuff the finish cause it looks great. I've only got a few trainers but the cheese stands out for sure.

The media could not be loaded. The cheese is a beautiful trainer for the price the tolerances are great and when you lube it up the baby bounces! Flips great looks funky and I love it. Would recommend for sure

This balisong is perfectly weighted it was perfectly tuned it was not too stiff. The build quality is great with the 6061 aluminum and Teflon coating. There were no sharp edges like on other cheap balisongs. It's very easy to use. This is a very good gift for $80.

The media could not be loaded. Great balisong for public and beginners/advanced. Fans and ladders well, and is not blade/handle bias. Little tap and play. It sounds great, and is overall amazing.

The cheese balisong from nabalis is a solid choice among all their options, it has the bitr handle indicator, beautiful color with nice design and it is all metal but doesn't hurt when flipping at all thanks to the dull blade. The bali doesn't have any tap to it and the integrated bushing system work like magic.After receiving I have dropped on the carpet multiple times and the screws haven't come loose even once.Definitely a banger check it out for yourself
