    These Zippy spacers designed for the Fellowship Blades Gaboon and Invar Gaboon balisongs are made in-house from a rubbery, shatter-proof polyurethane.

    Features

    • Adds a wider area of jimping with positive sawtooth jimping for extra grip on ladders and choker fans.
    • Optional handle extensions extend handles from 5.5" to 5.677" and protect the handles from drops.
    • Deepens sound.
    • Available with compatibility for the the Gaboon and the Invar Gaboon.
    • Adjustable balance: Flush spacers reduce the handle bias by distributing less weight toward the handle ends. Extension spacers each house 2x removable Tungsten weights to fine-tune the balance to your preference.
    • The Zippified Gaboon weighs 3.111 oz with the Zippy flush spacers. With extension spacers, the Gaboon weighs 3.163 oz (empty), up to 3.248 oz (with all 4x tungsten weights). For comparison, spacers weights are below:

    Stock Spacers: 0.060 oz (empty). 0.080 oz (1 weight pin). 0.100 oz (2 weight pins).

    Zippy Flush Spacers: 0.068 oz. More neutral balance due to weight distribution shifting away from handle ends.

    Zippy Extension Spacers: 0.096 oz (empty). 0.117 oz (1 tungsten ball). 0.138 oz (2 tungsten balls).

    The extensions are AWESOME

    The extension spacers fixed every problem I had with my invar gaboon! Gives the knife the end weight it was missing, as well as a little extra length to hold on to! Adds a little aesthetic flair as well :) 10/10 would purchase them again!

    Objective Gaboon Improvement

    The out-of-the-box Gaboon has VERY light handles, so the addition of these Zippy spacers give them much needed "end weight" to improve momentum. Just be forewarned that the factory spacers CAN be a bear to remove (but it IS possible - just takes a lot of muscle and much cursing). Once the obstinate factory spacers are out, swapping in the Zippy replacements is a breeze.

    Flush Gaboon spacers

    I own several zippy products already so when I saw him post prototype pictures for the gaboon spacers I immediately knew I was gonna buy them. The only difficult decision was choosing between the flush spacers or extentions.

    It gives the gaboon a really nice sound, not quite thocky but pretty darn close. It's a super unique sound that I personally love. 10/10

    Thanks for another banger product, David. You never miss!

    International shipping

    International Shipping

    Zippy ships international, but the buyer accepts the risk for lost, damaged, or seized packages-it is the customer's responsibility to comply with all local laws and regulations when importing and using this product. It is the customer's responsibilities to be aware of all import requirements when ordering, including but not limited to paying customs/import/duty fees. All international customers: it is your responsibility to looking up your country's customs requirements when you order to ensure you are in compliance, and interface with your country's customs and pay all associated fees if necessary.

    For EU customers, be advised that customs will apply a VAT fee of approximately 30€ for importing products that exceed 100€. This is subject to change depending on up-to-date EU regulations; it is the customer's responsibility to verify this at the time of your purchase.

    For questions and concerns (looking at you, Aussies), please contact me at zippybalisong@gmail.com. If the Zippy is shipped in 2 packages, you will need to assemble the trainer following these instructions:

    Zipper Assembly

    Cycloid Assembly

    My package hasn't arrived, or my package is lost; what should I do?

    Noooooo! Don't panic yet. So far I've never actually had a package get lost in the mail, although delays with USPS aren't unheard of, especially if the shipping is international. If you're a US-customer and your package is lost in the mail, appears lost in the mail, or was marked delivered but wasn't actually delivered, call the USPS immediately (1-800-275-8777)**. The faster they get on the case, the more likely you'll reach a timely resolution and get your Zippy ASAP. You can email me about it, but once I ship it out, I don't have access to any additional information that you don't--I'm just going to refer you to call the shipping carrier for resolution.

    **Some tips when calling USPS:
    (1) Do not use speakerphone, as this will confuse the automated system.
    (2) From the automated menu, say "Package," and follow the prompts with your tracking number.
    (3) When it offers "visual mode," I recommend you use it. It's faster and more streamlined.
    (4) At the end of the automated system which will track your (delayed) package, say "agent" or "representative" so you can speak to an agent and explain the issue.
    (5) Sometimes they only allow the sender to open an investigation. If that's the case, shoot me an email asking for the shipping label, and then use the return address information on the shipping label to provide the sender information.

    If you are an international customer and your package hasn't arrived yet, contact your local postal service that interfaces with USPS to evaluate the situation--worst case scenario you may need to reach out to customs to see if your package made it through or was seized. It is the customer's responsibility to comply with all local laws and regulations when importing my products.

    Hopefully your package is just delayed (this has always been the case historically when a package appears lost), but if it is actually lost in the mail, I'm very sorry. Believe it or not, it's just as heartbreaking for me as it is for you, since I make every balisong myself and put a lot of love into each one. Unfortunately, I am unable to take responsibility for packages that get lost in the mail (or seized by customs). I offer a variety of shipping options which have different levels of pricing and reliability/risk, and it's up to you to choose what is best for you. I am unable to replace lost packages for free, since each product takes me a considerable amount of time and financial investment to make; I'm not a big Amazon company that manufactures their stuff overseas. Thank you for understanding.

    Warranty & Returns

    Warranty

    If part of the Zippy breaks within 1 year of purchase and it affects functionality, I will replace it for free. Contact me at zippybalisong@gmail.com

    In order to qualify for this policy, the issue must affect the function of the balisong. Normal wear and tear (including scratches and dings caused by repeated impact) is not covered by this warranty unless it affects the functionality of the balisong or I determine it to be the result of a manufacturing defect. In order to reduce cost for the customer, the Diode is not covered under the Zippy Warranty.

    Worn M2 x 0.4mm nylock nuts are consumables and should be replaced from time to time if you disassemble frequently--these are not covered by the warranty.

    Returns & Order Cancellation

    I do not accept returns or refunds. All orders are final. Packages that are delayed or lost in the mail are not my responsibility. Many of my products are made-to-order and by the time you contact me to cancel, I may have already begun working on your parts. I am a one-man operation and returns are far too time consuming and costly to deal with. I appreciate you supporting my small business.
