I got 2, I live in ontario as well. They have a spring latch and can easily be tightened/ loctited/ fix the play. I had to krazy glue the sandwich handle screws though.

Edit: They are the best I could find, AND they ship into Canada. They also aren't labeled as knives on the packaging. These are the only "good" trainers I could find that ship into Canada. Really recommend these.
I have the Bear OPS Bear-Song II trainer with orange g-10, it was about $110. It's not bad, but to be honest with you.
This FURY Butterfly Trainer is just as good, if not better, and it was only $8. The only thing I would recommend is to purchase it with a small tube of loctite, because like with all balisongs screws can become loose.
Thank's for the feedback. This one seemed nice (by the same guy), but it said it was unavailable to ship in my area http://www.amazon.com/Butterfly-Trainer-Knife-Silver-Finish/dp/B003YCWFRM/ref=sr_1_3?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1411231245&sr=1-3&keywords=balisong+trainer+silver
I kind of prefer the silver finish ones. :) I'm looking at this one but it's from China so shipping would probably take a while as opposed to Amazon. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/High-Quality-Practice-BALISONG-METAL-BUTTERFLY-Steel-Trainer-Knife-with-Sheath-/221257851406?pt=Collectible_Knives&hash=item3383fee20e
Know any decent sliver ones on Amazon?
I bought this back in 2012 and it still works great. You will need to loctite the screws but after that its pretty decent.
I picked up 3 of these for $25 and free shipping, the first one's been starting to fall apart and was stiff at the beginning but for being so cheap its really nice. Keep in mind im no expert on balisong trainers as this was my first one.
I don't have any balisongs with screws but I've seen around this subreddit people recommending blue loctite and roughly following the procedure outlined this video. I've used this product on many types of small screws like knives and it seems to work well (even though the tube is red, it is the blue specification).
I upvoted you so hopefully someone with experience could either disprove me or back me up.
Just got this one, a few days ago. It's a benchmande remake with a spring t-latch.It I also a sandwich design.
