229,09 €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.

Karambit - a type of knife that originated in Indonesia, with roots in Malaysia and the Philippines. It is characterised by a finger ring and a sickle-shaped blade, which has great cutting efficiency. The 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 defence.
N690 - 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 a higher cobalt (Co) content in its composition. It is characterised by extremely high corrosion resistance and long edge retention. One of the best tool steels in the world today. Hardened to between 58 and 61 HRC. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.
Blade - Hawkbill type, finished to mask scratches using the Stonewashed method. The Plain blade enables effective cutting with the entire cutting surface as well as with the ultra-thin tip. the high, flat grind produces an excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. The opening is both simple and impressive, release the lock, slight swing to one side, the blade unfolds, slight swing to the other, the lock stops it in the open position. A reliable and proven button lock is used here.
Handle - non-slip textured grips for better grip made of aluminum. Chamfered edges of the covers eliminate sharp edges and textured surface improves grip confidence. 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. If you don't want to use the ring, you can simply unscrew it. A novel solution is the possibility of moving the lock button to the other side, so we really get a knife for right and left-handers. A two-position (right/left) clip allows you to carry the knife in tip-up position.
Accessories - A blue training knife with a blade without a cutting edge is added to the knife. Before playing tricks with opening the real blade, you can practice this "dry" with the trainer.
