About

The Karambit is a utility knife that has its origins from the Malayan archipelago, and was first documented in the 11th century with the ring on the pommel. The crescent-shaped blade is still in use today on fishermen's knives, also known as gardening scythes. The ring on the pommel permits 'free-handed' work with the knife without having to place the knife down, and reduces the risk of loss, e.g. in maritime environments. Today, the pommel ring is more likely to be used for athletic purposes, e.g. in various Philippine martial arts, such as Pencak Silat or Philipino Kali, allowing the knife to rotate around the little finger. Ernest Emerson pioneered the renaissance of this knife type. He also developed the so-called Emerson Wave patent, a small hook on the spine that allows the blade to be deployed as the knife is pulled out of the pocket.

You can't go wrong with a classic!

It's been said that some career paths are forever. For example, as long as people continue to have hair (both in places they want and they don't), we will need hairdressers, barbers and salons. As long as we need to bathe, we will need plumbers. With that in mind, as long as you don't want to walk on broken glass, soggy grass or dog poop, you're gonna need shoes.

But not just any shoes. Shoes that look good. Shoes that are comfortable. Shoes that you can wear to work. And the rugby. And the movies. Basically wherever you want to be, looking fantastic. Looking classic. It's a known fact that, after your hair, your shoes are the next thing people notice. Our main deal, though, will always be noticed first: good ol' South African vellies from Veldskoen.
