Cold Steel makes two versions of the Karambit. One is about $10 to $12 and the other is about $80 to $130. Here is the link for the $10 one. http://www.coldsteel.com/steeltiger.html

I was checking the http://www.alibaba.com/ web site and found where they are selling CRKT and Cold Steel knockoffs. I notified both companies. This is what you can expect when you have your knives made in China....the copy Kings of the world. Good info Jan. Thanks.

In Memoriam Comment by Robert Burris on June 4, 2012 at 16:41: I just finished doing buisiness with Phil at Wildwoodcutlery and must say he is another fine knife dealer you can trust.I thought I would pass that info along to ya'll. Pat, I don't know anything about that knife brand, but have found that with some of those cheap China knives, if the steel is good then it maybe a good knife. All depends on the steel.

In Memoriam Comment by Robert Burris on May 30, 2012 at 19:25: Yes Miss Jan, I plan on posting pictures, I was worried for a while because I haven't heard anything from the people I'm getting them from but I heard today, everything is okay. Slow Mail, I guess. I have never delt with either one but they seem to be okay. I hope they will be here at the end of the week.

Comment by Jan Carter on May 30, 2012 at 19:07: Robert,

We certainly want to see the pics when the knives come in.

Billy,

I am only about 150 knives short of the excel inventory list ROFL
