About Cold Steel

Character and philosophy

The Cold Steel Tiger Karambit is designed with a clear philosophy: maximum efficiency in close contact and absolute control over the knife. The strongly curved blade enables deep, drawing cuts with minimal effort, while the distinctive finger ring ensures the knife stays securely in hand even during rapid changes of direction.

The construction is robust and durable, yet still very easy to control. The handle ergonomics support a natural grip and allow prolonged use without losing confidence in the hold. The Tiger Karambit is a tool that forgives very little—but in the hands of an experienced user, it offers extreme precision and control.
