Half Face Blades Karambito Fixed Blade 3in Plain Sniper Gray Hawkbill HFKARBKMIC

The Half Face Blades Karambito is a modern tactical masterpiece, blending traditional karambit influence with high-performance materials and a refined American build. Whether you’re trained in defensive applications, need a dependable utility blade, or simply appreciate standout design, the Karambito is a fixed blade that’s as bold as it is functional. Built in the USA with a strong attention to detail, this knife is tailored for serious users who expect strength, control, and purpose in every tool they carry.

At the core of the Karambito is a 3-inch plain edge hawkbill blade forged from CPM S45VN stainless steel—an advanced steel known for its outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. The aggressive curvature of the hawkbill design delivers unmatched slicing power, allowing you to cut with confidence and control from the first draw to the last inch of edge. It’s an ideal shape for hooking, pulling, and precision work, especially in close-quarters or high-stress situations.

The Sniper Gray Cerakote finish adds a sleek, tactical look while protecting the blade from harsh environments. Cerakote is trusted for its durability and low reflectivity, and it brings a sharp, understated edge to the overall aesthetic. Full tang construction runs the entire length of the knife, giving it excellent balance and reinforcing the strength where it matters most.

Designed for a secure and ergonomic grip, the Karambito features a Chaos Grip handle made from black canvas Micarta. This handle design isn’t just visually striking—it’s engineered for high retention and tactile comfort. Micarta offers outstanding durability, even in wet or dirty conditions, and the texture only gets grippier with use. Titanium Torx bolts keep the scales firmly in place while adding a rugged, no-nonsense detail that complements the knife’s tactical style.

One of the defining features of the Karambito is the integrated finger ring. It adds a level of retention and control that’s essential in combative or defensive settings, and it allows for rapid deployment, reverse grip use, and quick transitions. The ring also enhances safety by minimizing the chance of slippage during use.

With an overall length of 7.1 inches and a .15-inch blade thickness, this knife is compact yet powerful. It’s paired with a black Kydex sheath featuring a belt clip for secure, streamlined carry. Whether you’re mounting it on your belt, vest, or pack, you’ll always have the Karambito within reach—ready to perform at a moment’s notice.

Proudly made in the USA, the Half Face Blades Karambito is more than just a knife—it’s a specialized tool with craftsmanship and capability at its core. Designed for users who demand confidence in every detail, it delivers top-tier performance with a tactical edge.
