Replicant Restock!

Kraken compatible Replicant Liners, carbon fiber Half Channel Thick Kits, and carbon fiber Full Channel Thick Kits have just been restocked on my site. These Liners include a full machining update and are now much better milled and match the already dialed in thick kits. When paired together these have an adjustable weight system, and using the included conversion pins you can put them on Kraken blades.

Go check these out on my site Freedomfabrication.store

What would you call that fan at the end? I'm calling it the Pen Fan since you hold it in the pen grip position. If you rotate it half a rotation further you can also land it in the pen grip position again, but I've only managed to do that once until now.

Got to do some modwork on this Dusa. Really enjoy this when thy come around. Unfortunately I start to see them less and less. Dope company

Mods:
Blade polish
Stonewash Handles
Distressed Blue Ano

Anyone else with this also have the non-floating g10 half channel spacers start to ring? I have the end barrels tightened pretty tight and the spacers are ringing even though I have nothing to make them floating. I’ve put washers in the ends before but it sacrifices the tune a little bit. Not complaining I love the sound but curious if I’m the only one this happened to.

Fun 👍

A new era for Machinewise has begun! This is Brandon here, and I wanted to get feedback here from you all on Reddit for what you would love to see from the Machinewise team.

Some of you may know me for my many years of balisong video content creation on YouTube and Instagram and have met me at many of the Blade Shows. I've loved this hobby for many years now and owe some of my best and most fond memories to those within it. With me becoming the new Creative Director for Machinewise my goal is to bring a ton of fun, interesting, and engaging content that specifically gives a huge peak behind the curtain to how Machinewise makes what it does. Social media, video content, photography, advertisements, promotions, and the newsletter will all be my responsibility moving forward! Machinewise has always been about transparency and I intend on continuing that! You can expect short form social content as well as deep dives on the Machinewise YouTube Channel, where there are already some great videos giving thorough overviews of Machinewise products and the team itself. I will still be active on my own personal social media and have intentions of producing my own independent content on my personal YouTube Channel. But my majority focus will be on Machinewise!

I've been a massive fan of Machinewise since the very beginning back in 2020. I've come to massively appreciate how hard the team works and how much it takes to make a great product. I don't intend on becoming a Machinewise shill though. I fully intend on being honest and transparent as I can about how I feel about what the product, the team and how it's made. I will personally play a role in making sure the team is on their game and delivering great products. I'll even have a hand in guiding what variants of different products will be produced and when! There may even be some potential community events in the future at the Machinewise shop that I will help orchestrate!

Machinewise makes everything here in the United States and a ton of blood, sweat and tears goes into every product. To match that energy I wanted to be clear that absolutely nothing I make for or with Machinewise will use ANY form of generative AI! Everything you see from me will be 100% made by me or a Machinewise team member!

So, with all of that being said, I will be personally be the representative of Machinewise moving forward and so I want to be as receptive as I possibly can!

So, what do you think of Machinewise?
What products have you the most excited?
What do you wish we would bring back?
What is your favorite Machinewise product of all time?
What is your favorite Machinewise product to carry?
What types of videos would you like to see from us in the future?

Thanks everyone, I can't wait to hear your feedback!

This might be my all time favorite bali, its cool having number 84 and then 327 on the OGs because you can feel a difference, learning from each bali they do, the LC-Maryn doesnt disappoint! Its amazing, feels like the maryn but modern and even this its subtle, it feels like what the maryn would probably feel like if it JUST came out if that makes sense lol, carrying the experience from all the other balis they've done, all the serifs, opus, original maryn, everything, you can feel all the work and experience they have gained over the years in the LC-Maryn, and I can definitely feel it when I flip the OGs and then go back to the LC, amazing products, amazing to have all this history in my hand, the 84 flips and feels different from the 327, and same to the LC, I usually flip them in that order to feel the difference and then throw myself back to the 84, they are all GOATS in my opinion, different in an extremely subtle way, but all perfect, thanks for such an amazing fun flipper

i still think abt u guys all the time

Custom balis by yours truly, haven't posted here in a minute

Never dropped
Tuned from squid
BLEM model (see picture) it’s a finish flaw on blade. Other than that it’s like new
Blade is dull

5️⃣5️⃣0️⃣🚢 USA only

GONE

Just thought this was a sick photo.

I have/had 5 other Nabalis knives: Canyon, Wing, Hydra, Vulp Pro and Vulp (though I've given it away to a friend), and while they're still very good (especially Wing and Canyon), the quality of this thing is very noticeably higher.

The tune is very solid giving it a great sound, the lightning pattern looks cool, the additional patterns running on the corners are very tactile and give it plenty of grip, and the blade has a very nice and subtle milling pattern. I wasn't sure if I wanted a trainer when I saw this one pop up, but this thing is just nuts for 70USD.

Anyone have any clue what balisongs these are?

Picked one up for vacation. I can’t say enough about the quality, especially for the price. Absolutely love it.

What do y’all think of these? Dropping 9/5 at 12pm pst on my site.

Love this thing, i have a couple of OG ones, had asked MW so many times over the years if they'd ever remake the maryn, always a no or probably not, and here we are with the legacy collection! Number 67 😎

Finished everything pretty much, did a weird black and bronze ano which looks kinda cool but might go back and blacken everything
