Description

The Squiddy-A is the perfect companion for every occasion. Its precision CNC machined polymer frame creates a smooth flipping experience that's gratifying for flippers of all backgrounds. Its amber Ultem® handles are both stunning and durable.

The Squiddy-A is the newest addition to our industry-leading product line of performance balisong trainers. Just like its other Squiddy brothers, the Squiddy-A is a light, durable, and well-balanced balisong trainer for all ages and skill levels. What sets the Squiddy-A apart from the rest of the crew is its O-ring noise suppression system. If you're looking to flip at a near-silent level, this is the trainer for you. 

Ultem®, also known as Polyetherimide, is an semi-transparent high strength engineering thermoplastic used in precision parts requiring high stiffness, low friction, and excellent dimensional stability making it great for a balisong trainer. This trainer is safe, legal everywhere (including airplanes), and perfect for young folks whose parents don't want them shredding their new sofa with a sharp butterfly knife. 

The Squiddy-A utilizes the same hardware as our other premium models—phosphorous bronze washers and steel zen pin construction create a smooth flipping action you've come to expect from Squid Industries. Take your flipping skills up a notch with the Squiddy-A butterfly trainer!
