The blade is bright red with white wave lines curling along it and a small green and red emblem near the point; the handle and the ring are left black, and the knife sits low in the frame so only the curve of the blade catches the light. The hands wear the stock black leather gloves. The karambit comes from Southeast Asia, its curved blade following the line of a tiger’s claw, with a ring in the handle for the finger.

The view model holds 26,772 polygons against the stock knife’s 1,040, on 38 bones, and only two 512×512 textures carry all of it: the stock Leet Crew arms and a single map for the knife. There is no chrome map, so the sheen along the edge is painted rather than reflected. The idle runs 401 frames, the draw 46 and the stab 67. What other players see was rebuilt as well, at 13,938 polygons where the stock third-person knife has 112, on that same knife map. The archive is two model files and nothing else: no sounds, and no dropped-knife model, so on the ground it stays standard.
