Tiger Attack Karambit WIP

[Rick Haney Design]

The Tiger Attack Karambit got a slight redesign since playing around with CAD the last 4 months.This design was to use the tiger element,Stripes.
The original design I textured the scales,This is the new scales.Liking this version mo better.Also this design I wanted to incorporate intergral backspacer & finger ring.I made this one with black G-10,Since I didn't have any thick stuff to use. This was designed more SD,It has ambidextrious clip locations.This happened to get reverse grip carry.
2.25" carved CPM S-30V blade
Ti liners
Ranger green G-10 scales
Carved Ti clip
G-10 Backspacer & finger ring (1")
6.25" OAL
5.0" closed

looks grippy

but won´t it be hell to get it outta your pocket?

teachdair,I set up the clip for reverse grip carry.Most SD users prefer,It can be set up for forward grip clip carry too.

It don't reminds me of a tiger, I think it looks like a fishbone with a parrots head - but it's cool though. I would like it even more with closed scales and a kind of wharnie-blade (easier to resharpen), even when it would be no "real" karambit any more...

ja, use closed scales, they won´t snag in the seams of your pocket

teachdair,The scales don't snag as much as you might think.
