Heibel Invictus Balisong #87 Raw Satin Damasteel/Gold Anodized Titanium HKI087

Built for precision, balance, and fluid motion, the Heibel Invictus Balisong #87 delivers a high-performance flipping experience with striking visual appeal. Its 5.51-inch Damasteel blade features a raw satin finish that showcases the intricate layered patterning of the steel while providing exceptional strength, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. Clean and refined, the blade highlights the premium nature of the material while remaining fully capable for repeated use.

The Invictus platform, meaning “undefeated” or “unconquerable,” builds on the strengths of Heibel’s earlier designs by combining the best elements of the Sapient and Menace into a sleeker, more responsive form. The gold anodized titanium handles have been slimmed down to reduce overall frame size, improving agility without sacrificing strength. Weight-reducing cutouts enhance balance and control, while extended jimping and precision chamfering provide a secure, comfortable grip during extended flipping sessions.

Internally, the knife is engineered for smooth, consistent action. Stainless steel bushings and phosphor bronze washers deliver controlled, reliable movement, while the tang pin construction ensures durability and repeatable performance. The redesigned blade tang keeps excess material clear of your fingers, preventing interference during complex manipulations. A sleek latchless design enhances speed and flow, and Torx hardware allows for easy maintenance and fine-tuning.

At 10.375 inches overall and weighing just 4.5 ounces, this balisong offers an ideal combination of size, weight, and responsiveness. Designed by Adam Heibel and proudly made in the USA, it reflects precision craftsmanship and is available at Smoky Mountain Knife Works. Each knife includes a custom metal certificate of authenticity and a cloth drawstring pouch.
