Love the karambit! And yes, first time I started flipping it, stuck right into my arm on the way back. You definitely learn from your mistakes;) Awesome video and be safe out there y’all!
Thank you for this comment kind person, mine arrives tomorrow and now I know that definitely will gear my arms before even touching it. Thank you for saving my arm
Certainly, I have been practicing martial arts since the age of 14 and am now a retired law enforcement officer at the age of 58. My martial arts background encompasses Korean, Chinese, and Japanese styles, with limited experience in knife usage beyond the Chinese spear, trident, and tai Chinese sword and, of course, the nunchuku. I found the video to be informative and have since acquired a Karambit, specifically the 1911 K tactical. Currently, I am practicing with a training karambit to enhance my skills.
I have an aluminum cast karambit for training purposes and it's by far my favorite one, really light, comfortable, awesome. I'd love to have some full tang ones, but the folders can usually be better concealed. As for folders, I mostly like fox karambits as they come with the clip in the right direction, screwed from the ring side towards the blade. Most brands get that wrong and put it in the opposite way, removing the possibility of quick deploy. Also way too many brands get the grip on the opossite side (like tac force, cold steel, etc) and you end up having to hold the knife upwards so it doesn't hurt your hand.
I wish I knew more about proper clip orientation before I got my foldable Karambits a few years back lol, their clips are on the wrong side AND upside-down 💀 I'll be getting a FOX 599 this week at least
This is much better than the other karambit video you have. You actually learned how to use it. The extension is for hooking limbs and joints at a slightly further range to bring in a cut.
I’ve known how to use a Karambit. Trained in Silat for a number of years. I just like throwing people curveballs every now and then. It’s RUclips, know what I mean? 😉
CRKT Provoke. I carry a knife on most occasions as a last measure for defense. But I always thought it would be a high risk to deploy it and then switch to reverse grip for effective combat. At that level of adrenaline, it would be very likely to fail. Fumble, or maybe cutting my own hand. The provoke is already connected to my hand/finger when pulled, it can be used as a non lethal brass knuckle, and the deployment of the blade is just a flip of the thumb without loosening the grip too much. It operates so naturally, that it is perfectly safe. Also compact and easy to carry. It doesn’t even look like a knife in closed condition.That thing is an excellent piece of kit.
Well, at this time I don't know what my dream Karambit will be as I am new to this style of weapon. I am 64 turning 65 in January and I have studied Shotokan from a young age under some of the notable instructors. I have not been training for a few years due to opening a business but will be back in the dojo around Febuary. My daughter got me a Smith & Wesson Karambit a long with a practice blade. I will checkout your training and get myself up to speed on it. I the video I watched of yours and I have seen a lot of Martial Arts videos. Thanks! Terry
I have an OTF karambit, I love it, if you don’t extend the blade you have a less lethal defensive weapon and can always bring out the blade later, if you need to.
I have quite a few Karambit knives, dont know all the different types though. My favorite one is the one I got from funker tactical. It has a multi tool set and a catch so that it automatically deploys when you pull it out of your pocket.
I have the 511 folder karambit and I've had it since 2009. I also have the aluminum trainer. I made a heavier steel karambit to train with and I made a kevlar karambit to carry with me to use as a controlling tool. Love the karambit for self-defense. I had to use my karambit in Afghanistan when a Taliban dude thought he was going to jump on me from behind let's just say it didn't turn out well for him.
When you're beginning practicing with any knife, not just a karambit, I highly suggest wrapping some paper towels over the blade and duct taping it so it won't cut you, then once you're confident in your abilities remove it and practice with the slight weight difference :)
I own 2 fox knives Karambit model 478 and the Dart designed by Doug Marcaida. Love both of them. The weight and quality are very satisfying. Super sharp
I love the claw design of the karambit. My ideal karambit will have a claw like curvature (not the straighter hawkbill design) be made of carbon steel or spring steel and be a fixed blade karambit 😎👍
06:47 I have four different hawkbill-style knives for similar use, a small fixed CRKT Keramin, a medium sized Fox folding kerambit and a larger Cold Steel Talon 2. Depending on the training scenario, I'll practice with either one on my weak hand side. The fourth one is a Spyderco Tasman Salt for swimming in open water, in case I get entangled in plants or smth (one of the main risks for drowning in Dutch inland water).
So you are practicing with the karambit in your weak hand? Howcome? I also had a similar thought as it essentially adds some worth and defence to your weak hand which otherwise wouldn't be as effective (as it doesn't exactly take much so swipe with a blade and do damage) whereas throwing a punch with a weak side vs your strong is a big difference
@@shawn409 I think they and Raptors were the same thing, not sure though, I'm not a Paleontologist, but they are very similar, both have that huge claw, I saw one on a documentary narrated by Christopher Reeve as a kid.
I own an Emerson Super Karambit, a Fox 478, a CRKT Provoke and a trainer karambit that I got off of Amazon for $18 that’s identical to the Fox karambit! Thank you for the content!
I got mine. It’s a rainbow tint one by Snake Eye Tactical. Had to get it for my night shift at shady dispensary location known for gang fights. So a friend recommended me this YT channel.
I own a Defcon Karambit coming today in the mail, but my favorite Karambit is the We Knife Karambit. But I can say I love them equally. The third is the Cold Steel Tiger Claw.
Mine is a CS:GO Karambit, but i love it because it's all black and matte, and most importantly it's easy to use and definitely very sharp! Got it for cheap off Amazon, good quality! Would recommend for beginners.
Just got a blacked out fixed claw with 2.3 inch blade to comply with Chicago laws. Nice kydex sheath. Good to finally have a weapon that’s not illegal as an EDC time to get training
Fox 599, fox/bastinelli black bird, bastinelli pika is what I have. Next on the list to get is a bastinelli kalinou and I would love to have a traditional wood karambit.
I have an Emerson Knives Super Karambit, and came here to learn the basic moves. Ernest Emerson makes great knives and I just subscribed, I really like this instructor.
Just got my first karambits. Fox 479 g10 earth with plain washed blade. And matching 479 trainer. And a fox 598 fixed blade. Plan on stripping the coating off the fixed blade and adding stainless pins and getting rid of the screws.
Thanks for the video. I’ve been pondering over a Karambit for the last month or so, never really having heard of them prior. I own only one which I just bought, a CRKT Provoke. I intend to carry it daily.
I have a Falcon karambit trainer that I use for training and a canku tactical karambit that I personally use as a cutting tool and not for self defense situations.
I own a fixed blade Fox Knives karambit (Model #: FX-598) and a folding karambit called the "black bird" that is a collaboration between Fox Knives and Bastinelli knives. Both are made from N690co Bohler steel. Awesome tools. Thank you for these karambit training videos. I don't have access to any official trainers anywhere close to my residence so I can practice these with a trainer knife.
My favorite fixed karambit is the MKarambit (designed by Mike Maniord for the now defunct RedScorpion6 knives). I bought almost 10 years ago. My dream karambit would be a custom traditional karambit built for my hands, or an Emerson folding karambit.
Totally cut my self on wrist flip move when I got my first karambit. Easy to play with but difficult to master. Thanks for the video as it helps clarify the weapons characteristics and grip better for novices (me 😉). Looking for the dvd link for more training now.
“Easy to play with but difficult to master.” I was referring to the weapon in general. And I have a carbon fiber karambit. Doesn’t rust making it ideal for stashing around the property as an emergency back up weapon on a bad day.
Makes sense to but a trainer Karambit as well..then practice with the trainer and when you feel proficient or near proficient then use the real karambit
I have 3 Karambits! I have the: 1. Cold Steel Tiger (My 1st karambit. I was flipping it, fucked up and... yeah. I literally heard my flesh tear open... and then the blood 🩸 came.) 2. Cold Steel Tiger Claw (My EDC just due to its slim design and it surprisingly big karambit blade made in the premium high end CTS-XHP steel with THEE UNMATCHABLE Tri-Ad Locking System) 3. FOX 598 (The Fixed Blade Version) This is my go to karambit WHEN I AM TRAINING. It’s not overly big and it is highly concealable and has roomy space in the comfortable micarta handle and the strong fixed blade design)
LoL that feeling that I seem naked without them karambits I recently bought for myself as presents. Though I should've watched videos first before trying them out. One's tip struck me on my arm. But oh well, it won't stop me from learning more about it. Thanks for this vid.
I have an MTech Extreme folding karambit with the exaggerated curve, and a handforged damascus steel traditional karambit with horn handle and brass pins by an independent smith.
@@saint2279 There's always a risk that a folder can fail on opening, fail on impact, or fail to remain locked. That's the price you pay for the portability. The only thing you can do is to get one of good build quality and keep it well maintained.
Another Karambit video after a while. Loving it! I actually renamed my YT because of this beautiful but yet so dangerous weapon. You forgot to mention footwork, but that should be obvious for all who watch the video/your channel. I'd like to have the Fox 599/XT but that knife is a little bit expensive for me. I still do have my Mtech665, decent blade for begginers. I remember how I had little injuries on my hand with my trainer blade, was plastic but still had a tip. Much love! Like your work.
I got my karambit from boker knives it's the Magnum Spiked Karambit (fixed blade). It's a bit of a bigger blade but I really enjoy it and it's a bit harder to mess up a fixed blade.
Going to get the Fox 479 (live and trainer) and start learning to play with Karambits, I play a bit of balisong and do things like poi and yoyo, I also play a fair bit of begleri which is very similar in the flipping action.
I don't own a karambit but I've actually been doing a lot of blacksmithing lately researching and experimenting trying to find the perfect blade for me
Saw one down the shore a bit ago double edged. With a gut hook and a bonus little spike on the ring. I'd have to say less a dream karambit for me and more a dream set up would automatically flip the blade (folder) from drawing.
I have 2 fade karambits. Got stuck in my hand 5 times on the first day. But he'll I love them. They are sharp,they look good, they aren't too costly making them easily replaces if broken.
I subscribed to the channel a couple years ago because the karambit content hooked me in, I bought a cheap trainer back then and over the years I’ve upgraded to a basic karambit, now I carry the bulkier and heavier D2 dragon karambit distributed by Masalong, its very heavy and a lot scarier than any karambit I’ve owned. I’ve noticed though all the karambit videos you upload are beginner techniques, any more advanced stuff in the future for the channel?
I have the Schrade Shasta double edge Karambit. I love the larger size and double edge design. It's price is incredible, I like the Schrade better than some more expensive ones I own, and have handled. Plus it will take a hair shaving sharp edge.
Thank you for sharing this. In a few of your videos your non dominant hand is always active. Can you talk about what you are doing with the non weapon hand? Thank you.
Love the karambit! And yes, first time I started flipping it, stuck right into my arm on the way back. You definitely learn from your mistakes;) Awesome video and be safe out there y’all!

Be careful bro!
Yeah the 1st time I did, I'm glad no one was standing in front of me about 5ft.? 😆
Yea same 😂
Just got mine, just thought I need to buy more bandages
Thank you for this comment kind person, mine arrives tomorrow and now I know that definitely will gear my arms before even touching it. Thank you for saving my arm

Love my fox 599. It's my favorite EDC
Same. For anyone unaware of the emerson wave, the look on their face when you deploy your blade in 1/10th of a second is priceless.
I got that one as well and I am in love with it! It’s swift
Fox 599, cold steel tiger claw folder, and top knives tac top are my favorite
Fox 479 evo

My favorite karambit is the TALON by TRS. Very versatile and useful for not only self-defense but for EDC tool usage.
style one of the best introduction to karambit
I have an OTF karambit, I love it, if you don’t extend the blade you have a less lethal defensive weapon and can always bring out the blade later, if you need to.
gives me chills appreciate the off the cuff work. well done and thank you
Purchased my first karambit today profess Paul..fixed blade no loop at 8 inches ❤
I have 3, my favourite kind is fixed and sharp.
No fighting, just exhibition with dull.
Reviewing the basics so iI appreciate this vid.

It's more like fighting with a Velociraptor claw.
It is. First time I brought a kerambit I took one look at it and I was like "no way im using that on someone." It is deadly.
it's actually made to simulate a tigers claw so that would make sense
A Deinonychus claw fits the hand better.

@@ArijoyMitra1987 I killed someone in South Africa(Self defense btw)

Been carrying the Fox 479 for about 5-6 years now. Love it
Just bought a Civivi Incisor 2. I'm excited to get started . Trainer will be here tomorrow
My bro gave me his folding karambit and it's really good lowkey self defense kit.
I got mine. It’s a rainbow tint one by Snake Eye Tactical.
Had to get it for my night shift at shady dispensary location known for gang fights.

Got my microtech iconic fixed blade karambit and loving it it

Karambit is my fav weapon, I own a few. Enjoy the training video.
Yep, I just got a Tac-Force Karambit 578 a month ago & been at it. 👍🏻🇺🇸
Mine is a CS:GO Karambit, but i love it because it's all black and matte, and most importantly it's easy to use and definitely very sharp! Got it for cheap off Amazon, good quality! Would recommend for beginners.
My favorite is the Emerson Combat Karambit. Fits my medium sized hands perfectly.
I just got my 1st one. It’s a Du Hoc by CRKT. Thanks for the video

I'm a Karambit fan myself..love the Original Karambit too..but if I get a folding Karambit then I'm still good.
I have a fox folding karambit, it's my favorite. Thanks for the demo.

I love this video! Karambit is such a confusing weapon not only for the enemy but for myself 😅🤣
👍🏻
I picked up an Emerson super karambit and I love it. Just need to learn more stuff.
I have 3 fox ,Emerson, and a trainer, all brilliant 👍
I have a Falcon karambit trainer that I use for training and a canku tactical karambit that I personally use as a cutting tool and not for self defense situations.
My favourite karambit it's a simple one but a durable & a practical one
Great video. I wish I had a trainer like this in my ares
I have a hand forged karambit made from a snap on wrench... Sounds crude but it's function is so beautiful
I own a fixed blade Fox Knives karambit (Model #: FX-598) and a folding karambit called the "black bird" that is a collaboration between Fox Knives and Bastinelli knives.

Good safety guide. Good teaching
Fox 599, cold steel tiger claw fully serrated and tops knives tac top are my favorites and most deadly
I have the rainbow cs:go karambit. Nice blade. Works how I want. Just want to get better with it.
My fav. Karambit ist the Fox 599 Tic, and the Bastinelli Pica.
My dream karambit is the crkt du hoc, it awesome
Wonderful knowledge, i've learn some of this moves in H.E.M.A training but karambit looks much more effective than a regular dagger

@@saint2279 There's always a risk that a folder can fail on opening, fail on impact, or fail to remain locked. That's the price you pay for the portability. The only thing you can do is to get one of good build quality and keep it well maintained.
I have a Boker M Magnum ( 3 finger Karambit neck knife) and a Honshu full size Karambit, im getting pretty good with both of them!

I made my own carambit , kinda personalized and of course got to know how to use it ..
My dream karambit is whichever one Sam fisher was using 😭😂
Small knife , with paracord grip for camping ,emergency rope cuts... etc..
Going to get the Fox 479 (live and trainer) and start learning to play with Karambits, I play a bit of balisong and do things like poi and yoyo, I also play a fair bit of begleri which is very similar in the flipping action.
Thanks. Really enjoyed this. Could you do more karambit if possible
I love mine! Thanks for the tips-
I don't own a karambit but I've actually been doing a lot of blacksmithing lately researching and experimenting trying to find the perfect blade for me
Very Good Video..Basic and Real..
Saw one down the shore a bit ago double edged. With a gut hook and a bonus little spike on the ring. I'd have to say less a dream karambit for me and more a dream set up would automatically flip the blade (folder) from drawing.
my favorite karabit is fox b63 its really cool knife
I have 2 fade karambits. Got stuck in my hand 5 times on the first day. But he'll I love them. They are sharp,they look good, they aren't too costly making them easily replaces if broken.
just picked up the smith and wesson extreme ops folding karambit
Nice! 👍🏼
Just got the WE 816 Incisor. Lightning quick deployment. Solid frame lock. Love the SV35N steel.
I subscribed to the channel a couple years ago because the karambit content hooked me in, I bought a cheap trainer back then and over the years I’ve upgraded to a basic karambit, now I carry the bulkier and heavier D2 dragon karambit distributed by Masalong, its very heavy and a lot scarier than any karambit I’ve owned.
I’ve noticed though all the karambit videos you upload are beginner techniques, any more advanced stuff in the future for the channel?
I have a Damascus karambut trying to lear with it since I've only learned one thing thanks your vid helped and I want another karambit that's galaxy
I have a cheap MTech karambit. I carry it every day.
Fell in live with karambits ever since I played splinter cell blacklist and my dream is the one used by sam fisher
Yesss that's why I desperately wanted one too, it arrives tomorrow😁😁
i own a tac force kerambit, and a smaller version of it, been working the basics, not difficult once you get the patterns and timing down
I have a tac force karambit and its pretty huge. I flip it everyday and night
A huge karambit? What kinda blade length you speaking about?
I have a custom made fixed-blade karambit which is double-edged with a ring spike as well so that it hurts no matter what part of it hits the enemy.
Syderco Harahawk. Love it
I have the Schrade Shasta double edge Karambit. I love the larger size and double edge design. It's price is incredible, I like the Schrade better than some more expensive ones I own, and have handled. Plus it will take a hair shaving sharp edge.
Thank you for sharing this. In a few of your videos your non dominant hand is always active. Can you talk about what you are doing with the non weapon hand? Thank you.
Parrying mostly ,maybe some posting of the arm on opponents shoulder or chest ,possibly seizing and rolling too .
Good video on the basics. In my opinion, a karambit is the only true fighting/ defense blade. I daily carry a Masalong Unicorn.
Check out the Hibben karambit.. perfect for Kenpo !
