Knives with a karambit head are characterized by a strongly inwardly curved head and a clearly marked and sharp tip. Due to their unusual construction, karambits prove themselves as white-handed weapons. Knives of this type are used, for example, by practitioners of the Indonesian martial arts Pencak Silat. Karambits have gained great popularity, thanks to the computer game Counter Strike CS:GO. Militaria.pl offers CS:GO karambit knives in various color variants, such as Fade Rainbow, Spider Web Red or Gold.
Karambit is a distinctive knife that originated in Indonesia. It is believed that the first users of this type of knife were the Minangkabau people living in the West Sumatra region. Karambits can be easily recognized by the curved blade resembling a cat's claw and the handle ending in a finger ring. Initially, knives of this type were used in agriculture. Only later was it noticed that they worked well as weapons. Currently, karambit knives are popular weapons used in Pencak Silat martial arts.
Karambit type knives are characterized by their small size and striking appearance. Militaria.pl offers various versions of this weapon. Both karambits with a fixed head and folding versions are available for sale. The head is most often made of stainless steel. In the case of carambits modeled on the knife from the Counter Strike CS:GO game, the head is additionally covered with an eye-catching paint job. A secure hold in the hand is ensured by a handle made of plastic with a non-slip texture and the already mentioned characteristic finger ring.
