BÖKER PLUS HEL Karambit for Everyday Carry

As an ardent admirer of the Filipino Martial Arts, it made perfect sense for Alessandra De Santis, the Italian knife designer from Hydra Design, to create a Karambit knife for Boker Plus. The sickle-shaped knives originated in Southeast Asia and were primarily used for rice harvesting. In contrast, the Boker Plus HEL Karambit presents itself in a tactical guise.

The black-coated Hawkbill blade, crafted from 154CM steel, effortlessly cuts through cardboard and ropes, while the black G10 handle and the robust liner lock provide the necessary safety for on-the-job use. The lightweight and high-efficiency design are the hallmarks of this pocket-knife, which takes its name from the Norse goddess of the underworld.

Offering an alternative to the silky-smooth flipper opening, the pocket-knife features a screw-off thumb stud on the back of the blade, whose shape also serves as a wave-opener. The characteristic angular design elements of Alessandra De Santis can be seen in the striking G10 ring at the end of the handle.

The convertible wire clip (tip-up) allows the knife to be carried in a flexible manner. The Boker Plus HEL Karambit comes with a high-quality nylon pouch for convenient storage and transportation.

With an overall length of 17.0 cm and a blade length of 6.1 cm, the Boker Plus HEL Karambit weighs in at 93 g, making it a lightweight and efficient tool. The blade thickness of 2.8 mm ensures durability and strength, while the 154CM blade material and G10 handle provide both functionality and aesthetic appeal.

In conclusion, the Boker Plus HEL Karambit is a versatile and reliable pocket-knife that combines the rich heritage of the Karambit design with the modern tactical aesthetics and performance-driven features. It is a testament to the skill and innovation of Alessandra De Santis and the Hydra Design team, catering to the needs of both martial arts enthusiasts and everyday users.
