Lore is gold engraving over a dark base: interlaced bands run along the blade and pick up again on the ring. The karambit is a Southeast Asian knife whose curved edge follows the line of a tiger claw, held by the ring at the end of the handle.

The view model holds 34,542 polygons against the stock knife’s 1,040, and the third-person model holds 13,938 against the stock 112. Of its four 512×512 textures one is a separate highlight map, while the hands use the stock FBI arm and glove textures. The idle runs 318 frames with an inspect in it. There is no dropped-knife model in the archive, so on the ground the knife stays standard.
