★ Karambit | Rust Coat

Description

The ★ Karambit | Rust Coat is a fearsome-looking melee tool, issued from the southeast Asian martial art of silat, its curved blade resembling a tiger's claw. This knife, although rusted, is completely serviceable-a grim reminder of the terrible acts of violence that its owner has perpetrated, showing none of the shame associated with those actions, content to display the tarnished evidence.
