B200 pinching problem

Since I recently got my B200, i've noticed I have serious problems with it pinching me as I do rollovers.

Does anyone have any ideas as to how I could resolve this? My fingers are getting a little sore.

Re: B200 pinching problem

I have had this happen to me also.(but with a different balisong) what i do now is i try and keep the balisong not so close to my fingers when doing roll overs. Try holding it lower on the handles. I hopes that this helps.

Re: B200 pinching problem

That's what i've started doing, but it ends up with me losing control of the knife easier. Is there any way I can mod it to somehow deal with the problem?

Re: B200 pinching problem

When is it happening. When you are doing the rollover or when you are coming up from it.

Re: B200 pinching problem

It's happening when I initiate the roll, as it begins to climb my finger.

Re: B200 pinching problem

The only thing that would help is that you don't have your finger so close to the blade when starting the roll over.

Re: B200 pinching problem

When I was learning how to do a rollover, I was getting pinched constantly... I got better with it after more practice, but eh.
Like range jw said, try changing up where your hand is on the handles before you throw it. If you're still getting pinched, try throwing it a little differently. If you try not to let the bali/handles wrap around your thumb/finger as you throw it, you won't get pinched. It does make it a little harder to control/catch, but you get used to it. You don't really get used to getting pinched. :­P
