I never received any complaints for using it at work and it was just nice and cool to have there sometimes. As a pen, it gets the job done, but it's definitely not a great option as a balisong trainer as it is made of cheap plastic and is very lightweight (which is usually not an enthusiast preference) but it's nice to have. Its tradeoff for not being a good balisong trainer is that it can be used to write with and it is not very expensive. It would be rather costly if it was a regular pen, but, you see, this is no regular pen. Based on my understanding, the Heavy Duty BaliYo is probably a better enthusiast option but it will obviously cost more. I've had this for a few months, I stopped using it regularly but it hasn't broken on me so that's good. I don't really use it anymore because I haven't been bringing it to work and because now I have better balisong trainer options for at home and outside of work. I may eventually buy the heavy duty one some day. Review: Pretty good but meh durability - Super cool but actually writing with it feels awkward. It broke in my backpack tho. ## Features - Versatility: The body is flanked by two custom-formulated polymer handles that each rotate 180-degrees on Low Friction Stainless Steel pivots. - Precision Balanced: The BaliYo's handles are brass weighted which can be flipped, swung, twirled, and spun in a variety of patterns, transforming this everyday writing tool into a fascinating game of skill. - Color: BaliYo is available in several vibrant color combinations and include removable spring-steel clips on both handles that allow them to be clipped securely in a pocket if desired. - Design: Features a high-impact central body with a retractable Pen cartridge that makes it a world-class writing instrument. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07XYGJLZP | | Additional Features | Retractable | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #61,153 in Office Products ( See Top 100 in Office Products ) #1,595 in Ballpoint Pens | | Body Shape | Round | | Brand | Spyderco | | Brand Name | Spyderco | | Closure Type | Retractable | | Color | Dark Blue/Gray | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 3,466 Reviews | | Drill Point | Broad | | Grip Type | Polymer & Metal | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Ink Base | Water | | Ink Color | Blue | | Item Diameter | 0.41 Inches | | Item Weight | 2.7 Ounces | | Line Size | 0_7mm | | Manufacturer | Spyderco | | Material | Brass, Plastic, Stainless Steel | | Material Type | Brass, Plastic, Stainless Steel | | Model Number | YCN102 | | Recommended Uses For Product | Coloring,Writing | | Style | Heavy Duty | | Theme | Creativity or Fidgeting | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | | Writing Instrument Form | Ballpoint Pen | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Brand:** Spyderco - **Color:** Dark Blue/Gray - **Ink Color:** Blue - **Writing Instrument Form:** Ballpoint Pen ## Images ![BaliYo Wing Pen - Blue/Gray | Twin-Handled Design, YCN Model, Skill-Based Training Pen - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41xmqJ8rcjL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can you do tricks with it, does it flip?** A: Yes it does flip and you can do tricks with it but not all of them that rely on weight or length. **Q: Where is it made?** A: These are made in China **Q: How come some of the colors cost over 30$?** A: Its just a way for them to milk money you can go to blade hq and buy quality ones for the same price in colors and brass. Brass isnt super expensive some people just use it as an excuse to milk items for every penny they can. Just go to blade hq and find the one you want for the same price **Q: Does anybody know of a source that sells replacement cartridges that are the fisher space pen variety? i'd like to have black ink.** A: Hello, I'm sorry, we could only find Blue Replacement Cartridges on Amazon.

Hours of Fun!!! www.baliyo.com Shows it All *by L***Y on July 28, 2015* This is a fun playful product. Spyderco is the knife of such special forces units as the Marines and Navy Seals. There's a reason your favorite book characters like Hannibal Lechter and Jack Reacher have them as their weapon of choice. Look on You Tube, and you'll find Kahli Martial arts. This is a Filipino martial arts style that involves knives and sticks, and is taught to Marine Special forces. Spyderco is the knife they are trained with. While living in Golden, Colorado (where Spyderco is located), my fiance and I were given lessons from a former Marine in exchange for designing his website. Everything they make is made here in America,. The steel comes from Seki-City Japan. If that's not engraved on the blade, you don't have a real Spyderco, and there are MANY fakes. I learned this at their site and factory. Or call them in Golden to confirm. Because nothing on earth beats a Spyderco product! The BaliYo is just the final nail in the coffin of every other knife maker in this country. How on earth do you make a PEN FUN? Spyderco asked that very question, and used it's knife making skills to create BaliYo. This pen is fun, cool looking, and great for your coordination, dexterity and strengthening your hands. Just go to www.baliyo.com and you will find hours worth of entertaining tricks. Bored at work? Stuck sitting and waiting? Simply unclip your BaliYo from your pants with the two metal clips and pass the time learning your newest trick or creating new ones. Whenever I'm bored, watching TV, or even reading, I check at the Baliyo site, pick a trick, and get to work. What's even more amazing is this really is a comfortable writing pen! It took me one day to get used to holding it the right way, and already it's my favorite. Wet, dry, upside down, this pen is designed to be used any time anywhere any way. While more and more American companies are selling our country out by sending jobs over seas, Spyderco proves that American's can still do the job best when given a chance. Thank you Spyderco for once again bringing me the best of the best! ## Frequently Bought Together - Spyderco - BaliYo Twin Handled High Performance Heavy Duty Pen - Dark Blue/Gray - YCN102 - VORNNEX Practice Butterfly knife Trainer with Sure Spring Latch, Full Stainless Steel Black Dull Balisong, Unsharpened Butterfly knives Comb for CSGO Training(Silver) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/163616184-baliyo-wing-pen-blue-gray-twin-handled-design-ycn-model](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/163616184-baliyo-wing-pen-blue-gray-twin-handled-design-ycn-model) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-06-19*
