A bold evolution of the karambit — the EXO-K combines Reate’s precision engineering with a unique pivoting frame and button lock system.

The Reate EXO-K is a modern folding karambit that pushes the boundaries of design and mechanics. Its 3″ stonewashed Bohler N690 stainless steel blade delivers excellent edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, while the hawkbill/karambit profile excels at hooking and controlled slicing. The black oxide aluminum handle keeps the knife lightweight yet strong, with an integrated finger ring for grip security and tactical handling. What sets the EXO-K apart is its pivoting frame and reverse-positioned button lock — a distinctive mechanism that makes deployment and closure both secure and fidget-friendly. Each knife is serialized and comes with a dedicated trainer blade, making it as collectible as it is functional.
