High Quality
This karambit an EDC item for me. It's small enough to be carried discreetly but big enough to be devastating if needed.

Description
BGPIKABK: PiKa, Black PVD
Bastinelli Creations
Bastinelli Creations takes functional tools and boils them down to simplistic, useful designs with a little bit of style. They're known for their Dragotac folding knife with its versatile flat ground Wharncliffe style blade and oddly shaped, yet wildly ergonomic handle. Many of their designs utilize this blade shape but all feature exceptional ergonomics and top of the line materials. The Picoeur was a tactically designed backup fixed blade you could conceal almost anywhere on your person. It had a small scalpel-like blade paired with a thin handle and pinky ring for maximum control during CQC maneuvers. The Pika is a Karambit version of the Picoeur and the compact, concealable tactical tool to have in our opinions. You can carry it around your neck or on the belt and the knife includes a belt clip attachment for carrying horizontal on your person. It is manufactured by Fox Knives in Italy, designed in collaboration with Doug Marcaida and Funker Tactical.

Deadly and unnoticeable!
This vicous little beast is deadly, and really light at the same time. They say a knife should not be seen, only felt. Bastinelli's pika is a great example of that. Your enemy will not see this knife until it's too late.My only complaint is the price. Just a few grams of steel for $135? A little too much. However, the design is delicate enough that the karambit still deserves 5 stars. Good job Doug Marcaida and Bastinelli knives and Funker tactical!
