Hmm cold steel kerambit, wont the size like too large to put into pocket as EDC ? Well, i guess all knives owner somehow get cut by their own knives once or twice.

Previously i work in stock room, everyday need to cut and seal box, already used to carry knives in pocket, lately my swiss knives is broken, thinking to buy a new knives, kerambit got the hook shape, should be real handy to open those seal and plastic wrap.

But I can tell u its not really handy when it comes to cutting boxes because it's handle really gets in the way. It's feels too short if u grab it without inserting a finger into the ring, but if u do it gets in the way when u want to take it off. IMO karambit is a weapon rather than cutting tools.

been pretty quiet in this thread. anyway, finally found some time to take a pic and post this here. an addition to my saks christmas collection. prefer the blue edition from two years ago, but this has its own allure. doubt it'll see any action, though.
