2 new Derespina Karambit ! Big ones !!!

RDT · Dec 18, 2003

Just a little shameless self promotion wouldn't hurt anyone....except me maybe (0:. So, here goes...the first is my New Triple edge Karambit. It measures approximately 4" from tip to hilt but is approx. 5" on the curve. This one has black and tan textured G10 scales but the black bleeds into the tan to make a black and grey look which I like much better. 3- 3/16" fasteners. 1/8" thick ATS 34. Chisel ground and jeweled ! (though it's hard to tell). Next is my new Battle karambit. 6" from tip to hilt and about 7 1/2 with the curve. Overall she's a little shy of 11". Black textured G10 to look a little like horn. 1/8" thick ATS 34, chisel ground, double edge. This one is jeweled as well though it's impossible to tell in the pic. Any feedback is greatly appreciated...positive or negative. Thanks, take care and have a great holiday !.....RDT

Rich, you need to get photo editing software, like Photoshop, so that you can reduce the size of the file you are trying to post. You can do a whole lot of other cool stuff with this kind of software as well.

The karambits look promising. However, I have to agree with Keith. The pictures are a bit too small, so one can give a really honest opinion.

But they do look pretty good.

I noticed you saved them as Gif files, when they should be Jpeg files. Gifs are good for line art and flat areas of color, photos should be saved as Jpegs. That might be part of the problem as well.

If you have an image editor on your computer, you should download some photos that you admire and then open them up in the image editor and get a read on the size and bit depth, which might help you when you go and save your shots.

Kidding aside. Nice job there.
