Description: Karambit - Indonesian self-defence knife The karambit is a small knife with a curved blade and handle, ending in a circle into which a finger is inserted. It was first used by the Minangkabau people, who lived in West Sumatra, and the shape of the knife is said to have been inspired by the claws of large cats. It was initially used as an agricultural tool, but a modified karambit with a more strongly curved blade began to be used - in the Philippines, among others - also as a weapon. The karambit is considered to be the most effective tool for self-defence.

For 440C steels, the carbon percentage is in the range of 0.95 - 1.2%. They are usually hardened to a hardness of 57 - 59 HRC. It is worth noting that 440C steel is still readily used by master craftsmen who produce knives by hand, usually to individual order. With advanced heat treatment, this steel achieves performance close to ATS-34 / 154CM, and surpasses it in corrosion resistance.Blade finish: SatinHardness: ≈ 58 HRCHandle (material): G10 (Laminate made from layers of fibreglass embedded in epoxy resin.
