This karambit is extremely heavy, sturdy and feels like something that could be used in battle against a rhino. . Not the sharpest blade, but one that could be honed up to do the job. Blade curvature isn't as strong as the Fox karambits, the Cold Steel Tiger, Emerson's karambit folders or many others but it is a thick pointy blade. The biggest drawback for me was the sheath, which is overly large, rectangular and roughly cornered, has a belt fitting that is poorly designed, holds the knife too tightly for convenient extraction and overall is designed without thought for carry or concealment.
