Pocket Knife for Men - Karambit Folding Knife - 440C Sharp Steel, Tiger Claw Blade - Pocket Knives with Wood Handle - Compact Tool for EDC - Birthday Gift Idea for Dad, Husband, Boyfriend - X-52

Good knife, I like

Slick looking blade with good sharpness and pocket clip to carry. Opens well and locked well when in the opened position. It's medium weight and Fmfits well in my pockets.

The blade itself is really good out of the box, razor sharp and the gut hook/cord cutting notch on the back is a nice addition. I only have 2 issues. 1) The liner lock didn't want to engage with the blade to lock it open out of the box. About 15 minutes of working with a small abrasive file however, where the blade tang meets the liner lock on the blade, and it is engaging properly, and with no play. So that is just a minor fit and finish issue. 2) The finger ring on the handle is way small. As a Kali practitioner, the ring is usually placed on the index finger, which allows the blade to be used inverted, point and edge forward. It barely gets to my second knuckle, when it should be all the way on my finger like a normal ring. If the size of the ring inner diameter were to be increased by about 6mm or 7mm, it would be perfect, and would be very likely to be usable by most people with larger hands like me. The ring is perfect for my pinky, to hold it in a more standard grip for doing utility work, but for defensive use in the reverse grip which is how karambit knives are intended to be used, it's not the size it really needs to be. I still intend to carry this knife daily, but if I can find a better alternative that looks as nice, I will probably switch to it.

I bought this as a mushroom foraging knife, it's perfect but it's even cooler than that! This would make a good skinning or fishing knife. Seems well built. Unique style. Very awesome gift to myself but I'm sure any guy or a boy would love this.

Nice knife well Built

The knife seemed to be okay and good craftsmanship. The problem I had is it came with no instruction on how to close it and I could not figure it out even with the instructions from the question and it was I never could get it closed again so I had to stick it in the safe open and I'm praying I don't cut myself the next time I open my safe. If I weren't bed bound I would return it but at this point it's more trouble than to try and get it returned. If you're looking for something simple to use as a need or protection for use, for me I spent an entire day trying to figure out how to close it and never could I had three friends look at it for me and they couldn't figure out either and two of these friends are military people. And they said that they wished I had come to them before I bought something because they would have looked them over online with me. Following the instructions to the question answer those didn't work I couldn't locate a spring tension thing so it seems that with this one at least once it's open we can't get it closed and it very well could just be a single defective one. Which I'm hoping that's all it is. However this does make it something I cannot use. I hope that this means all the others work properly. And as I said before if I weren't bed bound I would return this and unfortunately my friends right now are working massive hours and I hadn't made up my mind at that point that I should return it because I still had hope I can figure it out. And unfortunately being on extremely tight income living in a care facility due to a massive stroke this is something that is going to hurt financially. The knife does seems well built. Just be prepared for a difficult closing.

Nice shape. Nice feel to it and it's it actually better than it looks on the picture. The handle looks meaty but fits my average sized hand very well. Blade lock is quite reliable so far as I have had this for about 4 mo this or so now. No issues with it locking with the blade out so no cuts by accident. It's real wood also. The downside is it's just a tad heavy. Not like a set of keys and change making your pocket sag heavy but it's not cheaply made heavy. It came very sharp also. Like really sharp. Even the back end of the blade where the slot is at. I like it. You may also.

Very sharp with a secure lock and sturdy handle
