SHOP CASE KNIVESThe SZCO Railroad Spike Karambit is a striking fixed blade with old-world character and brute strength packed into a truly unique design. Forged from a genuine railroad spike, this knife features full tang, single-piece carbon steel construction with a natural forged finish that speaks to its raw craftsmanship. The 6" Hawkbill blade offers aggressive slicing power, ideal for draw cuts, utility work, or just showing off its wicked profile. It’s got a twisted handle forged right from the spike shaft, delivering a bold aesthetic that feels like it was pulled straight from a blacksmith’s forge—or the set of a gothic action film.
At 15.8 ounces, this karambit has serious heft. That extra weight adds chopping power and gives it a solid, satisfying presence in hand. While it’s functional enough for work on the trail or at camp, it also makes a fantastic display piece for collectors and fans of handmade, forged tools. Every hammer mark and twist tells a story.
The knife includes a brown leather sheath with a belt loop, keeping it secure at your side and ready when needed. Whether you’re adding it to your gear or your collection, this blade isn’t just functional—it’s a conversation starter built from steel and grit.
