A very nice blade indeed. I especially like the knotted tip on the ring. You don't see that on very many of them. I've never seen knurling on the back end of the blade... nice touch as well.
I have been looking into creating a version of the Karambit myself. Instead of knurls I would like to add a single barb. one sharp enough to serve various purposes. Currently I own a Tarani karambit that was given to me by my Kali instructor. It is entirely too thick, heavy, and way to big for my small hands. Thus I've decided to custom make one for me. I've already stabbed myself flailing this one around.
