The Chaines Silver from MTech is a balisong (butterfly knife) featuring a droppoint blade profile and polished finish. This folding knife has a 10cm blade length and weighs 154g, making it suitable for everyday carry and light utility tasks.

Construction and materials

The blade is manufactured from 3Cr13 stainless steel with a plain-edge cutting surface. Total length when opened is 21.59cm, folding down to 12.07cm for pocket carry. The silver coloured handles feature a polished finish. A liner lock mechanism secures the blade in the open position.

Application and use

This balisong is designed for general utility tasks including cutting rope, packaging, and food preparation. The butterfly-style opening mechanism requires practice for safe operation. The droppoint blade geometry provides good control for precise cutting tasks while maintaining adequate belly for slicing.

Integration and compatibility

As a standalone folding knife, this model requires no additional accessories or mounting systems. The liner lock provides one-handed blade deployment once the balisong is opened. No specific platform compatibility requirements apply to this manual folder.

Maintenance and lifecycle

The 3Cr13 stainless steel offers reasonable corrosion resistance and edge retention. Regular cleaning and occasional oiling of pivot points ensures smooth operation. The blade can be sharpened using standard sharpening equipment when edge maintenance is required.
