The blade is painted like a wall piece: cyan and magenta shapes with black outlines and white patches run its whole length, and the ring stays dark violet. The hands are wrapped in brown suede over white cloth, the loose end tucked in at the wrist. The karambit comes from Southeast Asia, and its curved blade follows the line of a tiger claw.

The view model holds 27,824 polygons against the stock knife’s 1,040, on 38 bones, with four textures: 512×512 maps for the left and right wrap, a 256×512 map for the bare arm and a 512×512 map for the knife. There is no chrome map. The idle runs 146 frames, the draw 24 and the backstab 29, and the model also carries three separate inspect animations of 115 frames each. The archive holds the view model alone, so in other players’ hands and on the ground the knife stays standard.
