Simple Rules
YesIknowitsThursday. I was busy yesterday. Anyway, check this this out:
This is billed as a "kinematic" knife and opens thusly:
You can easily flip it open with your thumb if you have your index finger through the ring, and it turns into a reverse grip karambit.
Unlocking it is a bit of a faff and I haven't figured out how to do that with one hand yet, but opening it is very fast and the mechanism is fun to play with. I have no other use case for it.
WKW for the Win! Worth the wait for sure. And if you're going to get one, neon yellow is the correct choice.
I’ve got this knife, and it’s such a fun knife to fidget with! I used it pretty much every day at work to open boxes and packages, and I like that it feels like a very defensive knife, being a karambit (business was a liquor store and the location wasn’t the greatest so we’d regularly get shady individuals).
Carrying this and a pocket canister of pepper gel saved me from assault at least a couple times (pepper gel for range and first line defense, karambit if they continue to try and approach anyway, which thankfully never happened).
Anyway, it’s a fun knife to edc! :)
