Fox 479 Folding Karambit: OD Green
Origin of the Karambit
Originally employed as an everyday carry knife by the residents of ancient Southeast Asia, the karambit has become an edged implement known for its utility in self-defense. Featuring the signature curved blade modeled after a tiger’s claw and retention ring along the handle, the Fox Folding Karambit takes the classic design and updates it for modern use.
Note: Due to the sensitive nature of shipping knives internationally, we are able to ship only some of the knives on Massdrop to select countries. It is the responsibility of the buyer to know and comply with all importation regulations and local laws. Click here for additional information.
Blade and Deployment
Curved for more precise cuts and fluid transitions between attacks and counters, the blade is made of N690-Co Colbalt Enhanced stainless steel—a material known for its excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance. For easy deployment in close quarters, the Fox Folding Karambit attaches to your pocket with the ambidextrous pocket clip. When a threat arrives, grab the retention ring and quickly unleash the blade by catching the wave shaped protrusion on the spine of the blade against your pocket.
G-10 Handle, Versatile Grip
The Karambit’s handle scales are made from G-10, which is lightweight and provides solid grip retention. Made for regular or reverse grip, It also features a liner lock to hold the blade in place once deployed. To make sure your grip doesn’t slip, you can insert your index finger or pinky through the retention ring and stay secure through the harshest conditions. Perfect for self-defense, handy enough for opening boxes, the Fox Folding Karambit puts you well ahead of the curve.
