The
MK-05 Claw knife is a project of
MK Knives & Tools (
Marcin Kampka), from the karambit blade family. Originally, karambit was created in distant times in Malaysia and the Philippines, and its shape was inspired by the claws of large predatory cats. Characteristic for its construction were a curved blade and an inverted handle with a finger hole. The
MK-05 Claw knife refers to this style, but its blade has a straight cutting edge, which definitely increases its functionality.
Due to its construction, the
MK-05 Claw knife can be suitable for tactical use and for the needs of uniformed services. It will work when cutting ropes, plastics, materials that are difficult to approach, but also rubbing it will be more versatile in everyday life. Due to its structure,
MK-05 Claw will be very effective for trimming plants, tree branches, etc.
The
presented MK-05 Claw knife has a blade made of premium
Elmax steel, with a very interesting
double grind (characteristic grooves on the blade) and a fuller, a handle made of durable
G10 composite (
orange color with black epoxy inserts), and a
black holtstex holster with a carbon fiber pattern (carbon). The holster can be mounted vertically or horizontally or at a selected angle thanks to a specially adapted
orange kydex buckle.
