So I was planing to buy a new knife. I use to have a karambit but I ended up losing it when I moved to Los Angeles but now I'm planning to buy a new one but I saw that Fox has a karambit and a dart knife. I was wondering if I could get people's opinions on the Fox Karambit 599 and the Fox Dart XT

I have both, in before people start condescending you for buying these knives or the company's weird marketing, here are my thoughts:

The handles for both are identical for both model but the blade is obviously very different.
Assuming you are using it for SD, it's really a much different style. 599 has a normal karambit shape while the other is used more for reverse grip jabbing(like Benchmade SOCP).
If you also want to use it for utility, get the Dart, since you can use it like a normal knife.
I also prefer the Dart because it has a smaller package when closed, and can be used like a kubaton.

If you like traditional karambit style blade, another to consider is the Fox Derespina karambit. See my picture below for size comparison:
