Kershaw Dawnstar

The Kershaw Dawnstar Karambit is a really special knife. Why? Well, because it's a karambit that's not too karambit-y. Let me explain: While karambits excel in self-defences situations, their bulky finger rings, shorter blades, and reverse-grip-centric designs alienate them from other use cases. But the Dawnstar has a full-sized hawkbill blade with assisted opening and a conventional handle shape, making it easy to carry in your pocket, comfortable to handle, and intuitive to use—for self-defense or utility purposes. Most people won't actually be fighting with their karambit knife; they'll be looking for ways to show it off in more mundane situations. They need a karambit that's as EDC as it is tactical. If that sounds like you, then the Kershaw Dawnstar might be what you've been waiting for. And how can you say no for the price?
