Nice! It feels very comfortable and stable in the hand; this karambit knife is just so cool!
Illator W. 5/5
A knife that is excellent for fighting and self-defense.
Shark Q. 5/5
Very solid knife and it has a nice weight. It feels good in my hand. The only drawback is the holster. It is large and cumbersome. The clip would make it more covert. Definitely a nice self defense knife, worth the cost. Would buy again.

I’m very pleased with my new Karambit but I didn’t expect it to be this big. I was looking more for something I could carry for EDC. I guess I’ll have to buy another one if you have something with the ability to be concealable because I’m keeping this bad boy.

I have several karambits. The Skallywag Deep 6 is my favorite by far!

Flipped it upside down for better access from jacket wearing, etc. working on slightly different draw and work sequence. Loving it both ways.
David S. 5/5
Love this thing more as I wear it and train with it. Super sharp, pierced and cut paper like butter. Hefty but light enough.
David S. 5/5 Verified
Just opened the box! What a beautiful knife. Fits well in hand and on my belt/ waist. Easy to draw and weld. My first karambit and I love it.
David S. 5/5
Solid blade, very comfortable grip suited for many hand sizes. Great fit and finish. Sheath is solid as well. Highly recommend.

Been keeping my eye out for the perfect time to pick up this knife.

Not a blemish to be found...again Just the piece of kit I needed for my plate carrier. Great blade, thanks Skallywag

As a former Marine I love a good knife,and as a retired Heat Treater I know good steel. My karimbit 440 C is perfect in design and material. My MDV in D2 is the best small knife design I’ve ever seen. Pure genius.
Walter M. 5/5 Verified
Great knife like always. The sheath needed adjustments. I had to cut/sand a place for my pinky and the retention was so tight a had to sand the inside down. There was no way I would have bin able to wear it in. The only complaint I ever have with skallwag is the sheaths. If it can't properly be carried and extracted it's of no use.
Richard B. 4/5
Great blade, sheath is well made and makes for very easy concealment, and sharper out of the box than most people are, solid work would 100% recommend Skallywag to anyone!

Amazing product and service!
Michael M. 5/5 Verified
Absolutely love this thing!!!
Frances L. 5/5 Verified
Awesome blade well balanced. Sharp!!
Shawn C. 5/5 Verified
Nice knife. The belt clip provided with it is somewhat bulky. Replacing it with an UltiClip Slim 3.3 makes it much thinner.
Bob Y. 4/5
The perfect knife, with the needed weight to be used as it should be.
Patrick I. 5/5 Verified
I'm a huge fan of Karambit, and this karambit knife does everything it can do.
David S. 5/5
I love this knife—it fits my hand perfectly and comes razor-sharp. This is exactly why I trust Skallywag!
Jayden W. 5/5
Decent overall, but for three minor issues: 1)The scabbard and clip are REALLY bulky and unnecessarily thick: makes it very hard to EDC/CC this. Ought to be fine on a duty belt or load bearing vest though 2)the finger ring really doesn't need that extension, which looks somewhere between a lanyard hole and an impact point- the ring itself generally does well as a " fifth knuckle " impact tool all on its own and this protrusion interferes with grip transitions 3) It has a factory edge that really ought to be much sharper from the factory..maybe another few passes on the belt before your production crew kicks it on to the next step? Ideally a 15-20 degree edge would be fine,maybe with closer to a higher grind so it can bite in? Otherwise, I give it a B- ..keep on working guys!

Love the knife. I’ll be back Skallywag!!!

Been looking for a high quality karambit for awhile, this one is great!
Matt S. 5/5 Verified
It’s a great knife and damn well made, be warned it is definitely bigger than the picture. Sadly I couldn’t carry it easily due to shitty state laws with length but I will be searching skallywag for another EDC. Food for thought fellas, 3-3 1/2 in blade that is straight, full tang but curved handle with a hook toward the pinky end and a nice finger guard ledge?
Zach W. 5/5 Verified
This knife is bada$$! My favorite from Skallywag so far. Still trying to figure out the best way to carry it concealed though.
Donald M. 5/5 Verified
The website was very easy to navigate and find the product I was looking for. Great shipping time and the product was just as expected!
Chris G. 5/5 Verified
Absolutely love it, awesome grip, sharp out of box.
Buston G. 5/5
Great knife, sharp, easily Concealed and minimal print. On the heavier side but very well balanced. If youre going to scout carry, would advise getting additional belt straps as the belt clip barely matches with the sheath. Other than that and overall i highly recommend this bad boy!!
Gregory M. 4/5 Verified
This is the second purchase from Skallywag Tactical. Every blade is of the highest quality. The fit and finish is great. I couldn't ask for anything else from a blade.
