• Mirror polished and anodized 7075 aluminum handle owns a natural metal sense, higher hardness and excellent durability.
• Delicate lines draw out metallic snakes meandering between two handles, which will tremendously add additional grip during flipping.
• The 440C heat-treated stainless steel blade with high hardness and embedded zen pins makes Hydra a really nice tuning fork.
• Jimpings and a crescent shape at the end of the handle are the newest design language of Nabalis premium balisongs.

Hydra with a high-precision bushing system that has been professionally adjusted, giving you smooth flipping, zero tap, and barely any play!

Note: After use, it needs to be maintained and restored to its best condition by replacing the washers or tuning the bushing.

Hydra Bali is the first 7075 aluminum trainer of Nabalis, and it is inspired by the Hydra in Greek mythology.

Honestly, it's really difficult to produce the handles with 7075 aluminum, especially the anodized handles. We need to ensure the material is pure and its surface clean enough before anodizing.

You know, a small bias can cause huge color deviation. After tens of times of testing, we finally figured out the best producing process for the 7075 aluminum material.

Usually, aluminum handles would have bead blasted before anodizing. To get a metallic luster for the Hydra, we chose to make a mirror polishing and leave the handle soak in specific oil before anodizing it, finally getting it sparkling with natural metal sense.

Another innovation of the Hydra is the texture on the handle. Just like sketching, our designer draws lines with different intervals and tilt angles to make a specific visual effect, like a sinuous snake, meandering between two handles. When viewing from different angles, you can always get amazing patterns under the flowing light!

To some extent, the Hydra is a combination of state-of-the-art technology and the advanced design concept from Nabalis!
