The name says bronze, and only the guard and the finger ring keep that warm orange-gold; the curved blade itself is a soft rose pink shading to red at the base, closer to polished copper caught in warm light than to any brown metal. The handle is black, the hand wears the plain black stock glove. The karambit comes from Southeast Asia, its curve follows the line of a tiger claw, and the ring takes the index finger.

The view model holds 27,642 polygons against the stock knife’s 1,040, on 38 bones, under three 512×512 textures: the stock Leet Crew arms, the knife, and a third map named for the silvery sheen it lays over the metal. It is not a 64×64 chrome map, so the reflection is painted at full size rather than faked by the engine trick. The idle runs 318 frames, the draw 24 and the attacks 28 or 29. The archive holds the view model alone, with no sounds, so in other players’ hands and on the ground the knife stays standard.
