Design Features

Compact

The elegant form of the Karambite is a juxtaposition of its use. Simply find the ring with your finger close your hand around it and let fly with the Karambite if your life depends on it.

 

Concealable and Versatile

Without the necessity of reaching into your pocket, produce the Karambite from its neck lanyard to tackle any minor cutting task. The Karambite conceals readily beneath a loose fitting shirt or behind your favorite silk tie, in the office.

Beautified

The machined relief of the ring and the handle adds contour and depth of form while also allowing and enabling unique configurations of decorative cord wrap for enhanced grip.

Secure Grip

The full sized ring feature of the Karambite enables maximum retention for any use case.

Lightweight

Only 1.00 oz (28.35 gr) bare and 1.40oz (39.69 gr) when sheathed.

Thin

Only 0.20″ (5.0 mm) thick, the Karambite can be carried all day in any configuration without effort.

Low Visibility

When carried around the neck the Karambite is no more visible than any bit of jewelry. When gripped in the hand the Karambite all but disappears within the folded fingers.

Perfect Fist

The perfectly closed fist is the strongest grip you can have. The Karambite’s unique ergonomic design affords absolute fully closed fist integrity in Addison to a full finger loop for maximum retention.

Grip

The Karambite is not limited to the conventional blade orientation of a Karambit. Everyday tasks can be readily conquered by utilizing the Karambite in a razor knife grip to break tape and cut boxes.

Final thoughts

“The Karambite is a unique and formidable “last ditch” knife with substantial unique application potential . . . [it] is optimum for the purpose of inflicting damage to the adversary via reflexive actions such as striking. In this case the magnification of effect would be substantial.”

Thomas Kier
Director of Operations
Sayoc Tactical Group

“The fixed blade is so small you can actually hold weapons or devices in the same hand; the ring is held by your middle finger, freeing up your trigger finger . . . definitely a cool outside-the-box design.”

Patrick Vuong
RECOIL Magazine

“[The Karambite’s] size, combined with the neck sheath, makes [it] a very easy-to-carry combat/self-defense tool.”

    Exactly as described. It’s small, but that’s what I enjoy about it.

    This ultra-concealable blade is a ripper! I’ve considering getting one of these little Karambites for awhile. Now that it’s hanging from around my neck, I’m not sure why I waited. It’s the EDC I hope I never need but will be confident if I do. The design of this blade and sheath make for simple rapid deployment and its handmade in the US from American S35VN, so I suspect it’ll be around for awhile too.
    Awesome customer service also. Prompt and seemed happy to answer my questions.

    Big fan of the karambite. It’s great for edc, but my primary usage is for when I’m running. It’s super light and easy to carry either on your person or in your hand ready for quick deployment.
    The only thing I would change is that I would have asked for a kydex sheath made for a lefty when I made my original purchase.

    • Tali D (store manager)

      Thank you so much for your review, Tom! I’m so glad you love it. Regarding the sheath, why don’t you message customer service through our contact form? We love our customers and will accommodate ya 😉

    This is small enough to wear with gym and beach clothes. It’s an excellent way to always be preparing regardless of situation.
