Squid Industries – Squiddy-A Trainer – Balisong – Acetal Brushed – Ultem – Natural

Engineered with the serious flipper in mind, the Squid Industries Squiddy-A is a high-performance balisong trainer that combines innovation with top-tier material science. Manufactured in the USA by one of the most respected names in the flipping community, this model sets a new benchmark in silent, safe, and smooth training tools. Designed for all skill levels—from total beginners to seasoned flippers—the Squiddy-A is both approachable and impressively advanced. What sets the Squiddy-A apart from its siblings is its use of Ultem®, a semi-transparent, high-strength thermoplastic renowned for its low friction, high stiffness, and dimensional stability. This material gives the trainer exceptional durability while maintaining a lightweight and balanced profile for fluid flipping action. The channel construction of the handles adds to its rigidity and clean aesthetic, while the latchless design and smooth brushed finish bring a modern, minimalist edge. With premium hardware, including phosphorous bronze washers and zen pin construction, this model delivers the same fluid flipping experience found in Squid Industries’ high-end metal trainers—but in a quieter, travel-ready form.
