SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Pro Tech Squid Ind. Collab FlyFather 2 Balisong represents a focused blend of modern manufacturing and purpose-driven design, built for enthusiasts who appreciate precision above all else. Developed through a collaboration between Pro-Tech Knives and Squid Industries, the FlyFather 2 reflects a shared commitment to tight tolerances, clean lines, and dependable performance. This is a full-size butterfly knife that feels deliberate in every detail, from its balanced weight to its refined internal construction.
At the core is a 4.0-inch stiletto-style blade crafted from premium 154CM stainless steel. Known for its excellent balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, 154CM is a proven choice for hard-use cutting while still taking a fine edge. The satin finish keeps the blade understated and functional, reducing glare while highlighting the precision grind. With an overall length of 9.10 inches, the FlyFather 2 offers confident reach without feeling oversized, making it well-suited for controlled handling and repeatable motion.
The handle construction is where this balisong truly stands apart. Machined from strong yet lightweight 7075 aluminum, the black channel handles deliver rigidity and consistency that serious users demand. Channel construction eliminates unnecessary fasteners and flex, resulting in a more solid feel during operation. Subtle grooves add tactile feedback without being abrasive, helping maintain control during extended sessions. Internally, Zen pins and a bushing system provide smooth, reliable action while minimizing handle play and wear over time.
Attention to detail continues with satin-finished hardware that complements the blade and reinforces the knife’s clean, professional aesthetic. A short, deep-carry pocket clip keeps the FlyFather 2 discreet and secure when carried, and its right-hand configuration ensures a natural draw and return. Weighing just 3.50 ounces, it strikes an impressive balance between agility and stability, staying lively in hand without sacrificing control.
The FlyFather 2 isn’t about flash or excess. It’s about refined execution, trusted materials, and collaboration-driven design that delivers exactly what a high-end balisong should. A collaboration you don’t want to miss, available at SMKW.
