The most distinctive feature of the Tiger Claw is the curved blade. The model name means "tiger claw". The short, curved blade guarantees excellent cutting properties and a sharp, durable tip. The shape of the handle also refers directly to traditional karambitas. A fairly simple shape with a distinct undercut for the index finger provides excellent ergonomics of the grip. The hole at the end of the handle allows for comfortable insertion of the index finger, which is especially important in some traditional martial arts. The G10 texture provides great grip, even when working with wet or slippery hands or with gloves.
A convenient, double-sided disc is used to open the folder. The famous Tri-Ad Lock, for which the American manufacturer is famous, was used as a blockade. Thanks to this, it ensures high work safety and, in principle, there is no risk of its self-assembly, even with heavier work.
