So... this is the anon who bought that MTech Karambit for $30. It's not terrible... but I have a problem. As I spin it and fuck with it, the screws keeping the frame together work themselves loose. Is there any way I can fix this? It's a fine knife otherwise. Locks open positively with the spring assist, negligible vertical play, thing is razor-sharp. But I have to tighten the screws every other day. How do I fix this? Also, any recommendations for a quality folding karambit under $100? Thanks in advance.

Better?
Sell it and buy a Fox 479 if you want a karambit

Lol get a hex screwdriver.
Thats what I do for my shitty tiger switchblades.

Welcome to every gas station folding knife ever

After lock-tite-ing it, I've decided I should upgrade. Any recommendations on a sub-$100 folding karambit? I like the 5.11 C.U.B. Master, but are there any similarly-priced options with an Emerson Wave-like feature?

Would your life be improved by a better quality knife of that particular shape and size?

This is exactly what you need. I use blue lock tight on the pivots of all my folding knives when I take them apart/clean/lube.
You don't want stronger than blue or else you may strip the screws while taking it apart.
Stripping screws maybe a problem since it's a Mtech and has shit chines screws.
You may consider picking up a better one if you like it enough to spend the money.
>>33400488
aren't karambits small enough? I think a fixed blade one would be better

This or literally any other good name brand karambit.
It's fags like OP who like "playing" with their cheap karambits who give us a bad name.

Blue Loctite, like the first dude said.
>any recommendations for a quality folding karambit under $100?
The kind that doesn't fold.
99% of karambit use outside of Indochina is pure fantasy nonsense, you may as well get a real karambit that doesn't look as dorky as the dorky things you do with it.
Get some red locktight and the proper hex driver, no more problems ever. If you wish to take it apart to clean it get the blue locktight. Problem solved anon

Beat me to it.
Ever since CS:GO kiddies found out about this knife it's probably extremely hard to get ANY kind of quality on any karambit. They're all overpriced pieces of shit now. I feel sorry for the 10 people who actually used these things seriously
