Got this karambit over 6 months ago and it’s still sharp. Was very sharp out of the box and not one bit of rust when I got it, and today not one bit of rust. Retention of the kydex keeps it nice and tight and from falling out. I carry this blade every day with my EDC.

The first was very sharp right out of the box. I was very impressed so I ordered another one for my left side. The second was sharp as well but had a little rust on the tip. Other than that it is in perfect condition. Both of these are beautiful beast. Fit nicely in both hands.

These are well worth 20 dollars. Sell for around 36 every where else. The micarta handles are really comfortable. It is a good Karambit for the the price.

Had some rust on the tip of the blade and really needed to be sharpened out of the box. Good balance and good retention on the rugged sheath.

It's a very sharp knife nice case the only thing I had a problem with is one side of the handle was a little loos and one screw was stripped a little

This knife is great! It fits my hand perfectly, and is sharp right out of the box

I have always had my eye out for a karambit on here, waiting for the right knife and the right price. I bought this with my tax return and couldnt be happier with it. The kydex sheath is useful and stays planted on a belt. The blade is wickedly sharp . Well worth $20.

I have been searching for a good karambit for a long time. While there are some good ones out there, most of them suffer from some combination of the following problems: 1. WAY too expensive, 2. Good knife ...BACKWARDS sheath - it only mounts with the knife pointed the wrong way, such that you cannot quickly obtain a traditional "reverse" grip. 3. Cheap crap. THIS one, on the other hand got it all RIGHT. It is VERY reasonably priced (discounted to 20 bucks). The sheath can be worn so that you can get a proper, traditional grip BEFORE drawing the blade and 3, it is very sturdy and well made. It arrived quite sharp, right out of the box, though it is not honed to a razor edge. The serration is a welcome feature not found on many karambits. The sheath has a very solid belt-hook, so that the sheath itself rides inside the belt, while the hook solidly catches on the belt thereby preventing an embarrassing draw. Why so many knife makers get this wrong is a mystery to me. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I would definitely buy one again.

I couldn't have been happier with this knife. It was razor sharp out of the box.
