When someone first starts out collecting blades, they might look at every booth that has butterfly knives for sale to see what kind of products are available. Chances are that they’d do so at a physical in-person show in order to get a good feel for the market. Eventually, they’ll have added every kind of common butterfly knife to their collection and might want to find something more exotic.
Rainbow slick and metallic gold patterns have become sought after by collectors in recent years, and they’re usually done by adding a small amount of oil to the enamel of the blade in order to give it a certain appearance. While this doesn’t change the functionality of the knife itself, the polish does give it a dramatically different appearance.
Others might start to look for blasted butterfly knife blades, which are treated with abrasive glass and ceramic beads before they’re shipped to the consumer. This gives them an even gray pattern that reduces the amount of light they reflect, which in turn cuts down on how much glare they generate. Those who might want something more durable can turn to coated blades, which are made with electrically bonded materials. Harder coatings can resist wear and prolong the life of the blade. Performers who like to do tricks with their balisong blades have long flocked to these coated knives, which are ideal for this kind of work. There’s no reason you wouldn’t want to try one even if you were just looking for a practical knife, however.
