SPYDERCO KARAMBIT FOLDER
The Karambit's claw-shaped curved blade originated centuries ago in Indonesia and was used primarily to cut crops, today it is considered a self protection tool.
Knives steeped in tradition of their homelands are finding their way to the American knife buying public. They offer an exotic menu of designs, shapes and innovation. Custom Knifemaker Warren Thomas has collaborated with Spyderco to produce a folding Karambit. Fully stainless steel, the arc of the curved blade carries through to the handle ending in an index-finger ring allowing the blade to be swung into a range of gripping positions. The blade is 2 1/8" and double flat-ground out of VG-10 steel with the one-hand-open Spyderco hole.
Made of burnished stainless steel, the handle has thumb recess guiding the thumb over the 13mm hole for swift blade deployment. With an affirmative click, the blade locks open by means of a Chris Reeve style integral liner lock. A multi-positional metal clip carries tip-up and both left or right-handed.
