Hi,
Here is my 3rd balisong knife and I got to say this one is my best so far. It is quite different than previous ones becouse it has some metal parts in it wich make it a bit heavier and feels better in hand.
If you are looking for one day project- Go with this one ;D
Here I give You links for my other balisongs:

Material list:
->4mm steel rod, You will have to cut it into 9mm pieces(x8) (optional but highly reccomended)
->4x M3 screws ( I used hex but normal ones should fit as well)
->4x M3 nuts
->3d printed parts
Steps:
->print all the parts
->cut the steel bar into 8, 9mm long pieces
->glue the handles with plates (not handle to handle !!)
->drill out the screw holes with 3mm bits
->file 2 of the 9mm steel bar pieces to make both ends round (they are the pins in the blade)
->glue 3 9mm steel bar pieces into left and right handle
->glue blade pins into the blade
->glue handle pins with the other handles (ensure the distance between handles is equal)
->insert handles into blade
->screw it all together (not too tight)
-> Bravo, You got a working bali
->Post make, its the most important step, don't miss it ;D
