The Cold Steel Steel Tiger is a modern tactical interpretation of the iconic Indonesian Karambit, designed in collaboration by Lynn C. Thompson and the late custom knife maker Steven Likarich. This knife features a deeply curved, needle-sharp 4-3/4" AUS 8A stainless steel blade, which has been vacuum heat-treated, sub-zero quenched, and stonewashed for superior strength, cutting power, and edge retention. The 5" Griv-Ex handle, over-molded with premium Kray-Ex, provides a non-slip grip, even in cold or wet conditions. The handle fully encapsulates the tang, forming a secure bolster, thumb-shelf, and distinctive finger ring. For added safety and convenience, the Steel Tiger includes a Military-style Secure-Ex sheath with a removable boot/belt clip, making it easy to attach to your gear or carry on your person. This robust knife, weighing 5oz, is engineered for maximum performance in any tactical situation.
