Rings on Knives: What is the Reasoning Karambit Knife Fighting
So why are there rings on the ends of knives? It’s a commonly asked question and in this video, we answer it… so watch on.
Firstly though you may have been discouraged on ringed blades and we all have that “”knife expert”” friend who actively advises against them. Why? Well, commonly the reasons they give are to avoid fingers being broken or being degloved. But let’s look at the truth of it and debunk both of those reasons now.
Ringed knives are not dangerous, in fact, they’re actually safer. The rings act as a handle and provide extra grip so your fingers can’t slip. And as for being degloved, that’s only possible if the knife is extremely sharp and you’re using a lot of force – which is not recommended with any knife. So overall, rings are there for your safety. They keep your knife attached and they help to keep you safe, and the moral of the story is that the pros of ringed knives heavily outweigh the cons any day!
