NEW Half Face Blades Karambito One-Off Custom Afzelia Dyed Buckeye Split G10 For Sale

Half Face Blades | Karambito — designed by Andrew “Bito” Arrabito, a former Navy SEAL (Teams FIVE and ONE, Iraq and Afghanistan) who started forging blades for his own deploying teammates.

The karambit traces back to the Indonesian archipelago, its curved blade modeled on a tiger’s claw and its use woven into the martial art of silat. The finger ring isn’t decoration — it locks the knife into your hand, so the blade stays put whether you’re working with it or your grip gets compromised. The "Karambito" is Arrabito’s combat-built take on that centuries-old design.

The blade: 3” of CPM-S45VN — a premium American stainless that holds an edge hard and shrugs off corrosion. 7.1” overall, .15” stock, acid-etched finish, HFB maker’s mark at the ricasso. Rides in a fitted Kydex sheath.

What sets this one apart is the handle: Afzelia, black and white G10, OD green canvas Micarta, coyote G10 split, dyed Buckeye burl, and black Micarta pins, textured for grip. That exact material stack was a one-off — it sold, the listing came down, and it won’t be built again.

ARMA POTENTE — consequential tools for the discerning man.
