Böker Spike Karambit Desert Tan G10, Black Blade (02SC028)

Spike Karambit Desert Tan G10, Black Blade thoughtful fighting knife from German brand Böker Magnum, a lightweight, fast and extremely effective karambit.

Karambit - a type of knife that originated in Indonesia, with roots in Malaysia and the Philippines. It is characterized by a finger ring and sickle-shaped blade, which is characterized by tremendous cutting efficiency - mimicking the way an eagle's claw or a tiger's claw rips. Used as a working knife and for defense if necessary.

440A - easy to sharpen, stainless knife steel, equivalent to Japanese AUS-6 steel. High content of 16.0% chromium and average 0.6% carbon provide excellent corrosion resistance. The presence of <1.0% silicon and <0.75% molybdenum increase the steel's strength and wear resistance. 440A has a high hardness in the 55-59 HRC range.

Blade - Hawkbill, a rounded blade shape features great cutting efficiency and speed. Hawkbill profile mimics the way an eagle's claw or a tiger's claw rips through, piercing and cutting at the same time. Plain blade with ultra-thin tip, concave grind (hollow grind) and excellent curvature for maximum cutting capabilities. For increased corrosion resistance, the blade has been coated with a black protective coating.

Handle - linings with a distinct "toxic" texture provide a secure grip. Made of durable, resistant to mechanical damage, chemicals, low temperatures G10 plastic attached to the tang. On the back of the handle, a notched ramp (support) for the thumb (spine jimping) facilitates efficient handling of the knife. The simple, sturdy construction gives you the assurance of many years of use. Flat kydex sheath with attachment holes. The handle is finished with an enlarged polished finger ring (Back Ring) with a tab that can be used as a glass striker. The ring makes it easy to rotate the folder around the finger, allowing traditional techniques to be performed.
