Pale bone-coloured flames lick along a charcoal blade, thickest near the point and breaking into small tongues towards the guard; the ring and the grip stay dark. The hands are wrapped in deep red cloth over black, creased where the fingers close. The karambit comes from Southeast Asia, and the ring in the handle takes the index finger.

The view model holds 17,193 polygons against the stock knife’s 1,040, on 38 bones, under twenty-nine textures: 512×512 maps for the left and right wrap, 512×256 for the fingers and 256×512 for the arm, with the remaining twenty-five split across pieces of the knife. There is no chrome map. The idle runs 268 frames, the draw 29 and each slash 35. The third-person model was rebuilt to 1975 polygons where the stock one has 112, and nine knife sounds are in the archive. Nothing replaces the dropped knife, so on the ground it stays standard.
