Both are excellent quality and beautifully done works of fighting art!
The Lanchu blades I’ve given as gifts to members of my family as perfect skinning knives.
I’m not here to post which I prefer over the other but simply to show the blades as I’ve heard recently that someone was really wanting a Karambit on the forum.
I will try to post a close up of the knife made by Ram Kumar showing the double edge also can shave hair!
I know there are laws in certain states prohibiting the use of double edge weapons but I’m clear from that law in my state....at least for now!
The first knife is Lanchu.

Mr B might move this to the cantina but I’m just promoting sales of HI knives.

The thing I like about the original kerambit is it can be used for regular knife chores. Even skinning, etc.

I like the looks of the fighting knife although the powers that be don't like double edged round these parts.

That first knife looks like a good skinning blade for certain. Also, Kansas knife laws are nearly nonexistent, so I can carry anything but shuriken and ballistic knives.
 
Both are very nice knives. I have a Lachhu Karambit too and its a well made handful. It has clipped point like yours but I do like the full back edge on your fighter:thumbsup:
 
I do love the Karambit. Fun fact, I had one made by Kumar in my jacket's breast pocket at my wedding 13 years ago (well, 13 years on the 15th).

Those are pretty:)

That’s a pretty cool fact!
Didn’t you have a kuk to cut your cake with?
 
I thought I'd heard he cut the cake with a Kuk but maybe that was somebody else. I know someone here did.
I had a 45 in my cummerbund or whatever that silly thing is you wear around your middle.
Didn't cut cake worth a damn.
 
Not me, it was Steely. I don't think Khuks were invented when I got married.
It was sometime back.
