From the Spyderco website: The new all-black Karahawk is a modern folding version of the traditional Southeast Asian Karambit. Its hawkbill blade is VG-10 stainless steel and features a non-reflective titanium carbonitride (TiCN) coating. It includes both a Trademark Round Hole and an Emerson Opening Feature for swift, blade function and is paired with a high strength back lock mechanism. The Karahawk's handle is constructed with textured G-10 scales and full skeletonized stainless steel liners that are also TiCN coated. The signature ring is reinforced with a G-10 insert and allows traditional Karambit manipulation techniques. A reversible hourglass clip provides ambidextrous tip-up carry and, like all the knife's other hardware, features a matching low-profile black coating.
