The Thomas/Spyderco folding
Karambit is all-stainless with an arcing blade shape that
carries through into a curved handle creating, in a sense, a
large claw. Positioned at the end, for an index or pinky finger,
the ring lets you to swing/rotate the blade into different grip
positions. When closed an accessible nick/recess in the steel
handle channels the thumb to, and then over, the
Spyderco
Round Hole for immediate
blade deployment. To facilitate opening the blade even quicker,
the hole is expanded to 13mm in diameter. On the backside, the
handle scale is laser cut into a framelock. The blade is made
from
VG-10
and double flat-ground with a finger guard behind the cutting
edge and a sizeable thumb-positioning spine cusp above the hole.
These ergonomics merge making the piece feel comfortably curved
and easily controlled in the hand. A flat, broad steel clip
completes the package and is outfitted with the necessary
hardware to position for tip-up/tip-down
and left- or right-hand carry. |
