Thompson and the late custom knife maker Steven Likarich, combines the iconic features of the Karambit with modern materials and styling. The Steel Tiger is engineered to deliver exceptional performance and reliability in any situation.

The heart of the Steel Tiger is its deeply curved and incredibly sharp blade, constructed from AUS 8A stainless steel. This premium blade undergoes a vacuum heat treatment and sub-zero quenching process, ensuring optimal strength, cutting power, edge retention, and overall performance. The taper ground blade is complemented by a black finish, further enhancing its durability and resistance to wear.
