Ang Kick-Ass Balisong ni Hit Girl

  

I got a kick from watching Chloe Grace Moretz aka Hit Girl.  Ala-eh kagaleng bumirada ng kanyang new Balisong.  Regalo ng tatay niyang kalbo este ni Nicolas Cage.  Parang tunay na batangueña baga. O kabayan nood na!



Balisong, otherwise known as a butterfly knife or fan knife, is a folding pocket knife with two handles counter-rotating around the tang such that, when closed, the blade is concealed within grooves in the handles.  It is sometimes called a Batangas  knife.  In the hands of a trained user, the knife blade can be brought to bear quickly using one hand.  Manipulations, called "flipping", are performed for art or amusement.
      

The Balisong is commonly used by Filipino people as a pocket utility knife. It is so popular in the Philippines that an urban legend exists about every Batangueño carrying it everywhere he goes. [wiki]
