CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESBuilt for performance and precision, the Mantis Mothra Balisong captures the spirit of classic butterfly knives with a modern, American-made edge. This isn’t a tool you carry for everyday utility—it’s a statement piece for those who understand the rhythm and fluidity of a proper flip. The 3.88" dagger-style blade is crafted from premium 154CM stainless steel and finished with a rugged bead blast that reduces glare and adds grip. Balanced, symmetrical, and razor sharp, it moves like a ghost through the air.
The handles are made from aerospace-grade Grade 5 titanium, offering rock-solid strength without the weight. Strategic cutouts reduce mass for faster, smoother rotations, while zen pins ensure tight, reliable action and long-term durability. The patch lock holds everything together with confidence, giving you the control you need for both freestyle tricks and controlled deployments. With a 9.75" overall length and dialed-in ergonomics, the Mothra is built to perform in the hands of serious balisong enthusiasts.
Whether you’re honing your technique, showing off at the range, or adding a standout piece to your collection, the Mothra stands ready. This is flipping at its finest—fluid, fast, and forged in the USA.
Over 1.5 million knife fans make the trip each year to Smoky Mountain Knife Works, the world’s largest knife showroom and a true Tennessee landmark—proof that real steel draws a crowd.
