Description of  Balisong: Iron Butterfly

Basically, it is a memoir of Mister Hernandez's life growing up in some of the toughest waterfront areas in the world. He talks about learning the art of balisong – old school. You drop yer knife, you get a kick in the chops and 50 pushups! No fancy moves like "rolls" and "ariels" here! No, you just get that puppy open and go to town! He talks about a number of ways to open the balisong in a single fluid movement – from every possible grip. Then, he discusses angles of attack, as well as a few "dirty tricks" that have worked for himself and others. Loads of memorable anecdotes and numerous pen and ink illustrations.
