Karambit is a utilitarian knife that originated in the Malay archipelago and was first documented in the 11th century with the ring on the handle. The crescent-shaped blade is still used today in fishermen's knives, also known as gardening knives. The ring on the handle makes it possible to work with the knife "hands-free", without having to lay the knife down, and reduces the risk of loss, for example in a maritime environment. Nowadays, the ring on the handle is more commonly used for sporting purposes, for example in various Filipino martial arts such as Pencak Silat or Philipino Kali, allowing the knife to rotate around the little finger. Ernest Emerson pioneered the revival of this type of knife. He is also the originator of the so-called Emerson Wave patent, a small hook on the spine that allows the blade to unfold when the knife is taken out of the pocket. The blade is made of N690 and is coated in black. The grip balance is made of non-slip G10. With linerlock and clip.
