The only karambit folder to get under $100
Honestly this is the only karambit folder to buy for under $100. The others either use blade materials just as bad for more money, (mantis) use blades too short or with overly aggressive curve or strange shape to them, or are to small overall. If S&W made a better quality version of this they'd really have something special. It needs a reversible clip for lefty's as well as tip down carry, better screws for the assembly that don't strip out quickly, phosphor bronze bushings, and maybe vg10 or aus10 blade steel. IF spyderco can push out a good 3 inch folder in VG10 for $80 there's no reason this can't be made to the same quality and sold for that price. It would have no competition in it's price bracket either but as it stands if you want something cool to mess around with it's just fine but if you need a self defense tool go buy an emerson or fox.
