Karambit - a type of knife that originated in Indonesia, with roots in Malaysia and the Philippines. It is characterised by an inverted handle with an opening for an index finger. The rounded shape of the blade is characterised by great cutting efficiency - the blade imitates the way a tiger's claw tears through - piercing and cutting. Used as a work knife, martial arts knife (Self Defence and Martial Arts) and as a defense knife if necessary.
Blade - aggressive Hawkbill profile, rounded blade shape is characterized by great efficiency and speed of cutting. Hawkbill profile imitates the way an eagle's talons tear (piercing and cutting at the same time). The blade is made of 54-56 HRC hardened AISI 420 stainless steel. The smooth Plain blade with Hollow grind allows effective cuts with both the cutting surface and the ultra thin tip. The curved index finger hilt and notched thumb rest make the knife easy to use. Liner Lock.
Handle - hardened ABS plastic facings. Metal clip facilitates carrying the knife in tip-down position. The end of the handle is finished with an enlarged rounded head in the shape of a ring (finger ring) allowing to perform traditional techniques with the knife, facilitates quick rotation of the knife around the finger located in the head opening.
