The Cobra Tec CTBK-RH Karambit delivers precision cutting power in a compact, curved blade design optimized for tactical applications. This right-handed karambit combines traditional Indonesian blade geometry with modern manufacturing for reliable performance in demanding situations.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard tactical knives, the karambit's curved blade design provides superior retention and control during use. The ergonomic finger ring prevents accidental drops while enabling rapid deployment techniques. The blade geometry concentrates cutting force at the tip, making it significantly more effective than straight-edge alternatives for specific cutting tasks.
Key Features
- Curved 3.25-inch stainless steel blade with black coating for corrosion resistance
- Ergonomic finger ring designed for right-handed operation and secure grip
- Lightweight aluminum handle construction reduces carry weight
- Spring-loaded deployment mechanism for quick one-handed opening
- Pocket clip positioned for tip-up carry and easy access
- Locking mechanism secures blade in open position during use
- Overall length of 7.5 inches when fully deployed
Field testing shows the karambit excels in close-quarters applications where blade control is critical. The curved design naturally follows cutting motions, reducing hand fatigue during extended use. Law enforcement and security professionals appreciate the retention characteristics, while outdoor enthusiasts find the blade geometry effective for rope work and utility cutting tasks.
