186,00 €This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.

Jared Wihongi - Jared Wihongi's life and career is based on the warrior spirit of his Maori ancestors. He has been practicing martial arts since the age of 10, and the Filipino knife fighting style for more than 20 years. He has also created his own distinctive line of white weapons, knives that he hopes inspire "the warrior spirit that lives in each of us." The distinctive spiral on the Handle grips marks knives that are the result of collaboration with Wihongi.
Karambit - a type of knife that originated in Indonesia, with roots in Malaysia and the Philippines. It is characterized by a finger ring and a sickle-shaped blade, which is characterized by great cutting efficiency. Hawkbill mimics the way an eagle's claw or a tiger's claw rips through, piercing and cutting simultaneously. Used as a working knife and for defense.
N690Co - cobalt-rich 1.65% (Co) corrosion-resistant, high-carbon 1.07% (C), martensitic chromium steel 17.30% (Cr) with molybdenum 1.10% (Mo), vanadium 0.10% (V). Developed to provide better wear resistance compared to the original Böhler N690 steel, but with higher cobalt (Co) content in its composition. It features exceptionally high corrosion resistance and long edge retention. One of the best tool steels in the world today. Hardened in the 58-61 HRC range. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.
Black Idroglider® Stonewashed - the blade has undergone a Stone Washed finish that masks minor scratches. Subsequently, the durability of the blade surface and cutting edge was enhanced with a scratch-resistant, matte black non-reflective protective coating made of PTFE. It ensures long life and resistance to rust.
Blade - Modern Hawkbill type solid with a thickness of 4 mm. Finished with a scratch-masking Stonewashed method and then coated with a black Teflon-based Black Idroglider® coating. The blended cutting edge and high, flat grind (Flat Grind) gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. To maintain full blade control, the back of the blade is covered with an upper jimping, notched thumb rest. The protruding "spike" allows the application of painful pressure on vital points or the use of advanced disarming techniques. A secure and proven liner lock is used here.
Handle - non-slip textured grips for better grip. Made of G10 plastic resistant to mechanical damage, chemicals, low temperatures. Non-conductive, prevents gloves from freezing to the covers. Fore Finger Groove, a deep cut under the index finger and a finger ring back ring / tail ring / pommel ring prevent the knife from slipping when the going gets tough. The ring is finished with an additional "spike" that allows for a number of pressure techniques. On the front of the Handle there is a glass nailer available when the knife is closed, on the back there is a locking lever for closing the blade.
Case - included zippered soft nylon case with the manufacturer's logo for safe storage and transportation of the folder.
