If someone could post pics of these knives together. I'm trying to get a feel of what the karambits hole would be. Thinking it would be similar sized to the swick. Thanks

My pictures are absolutely horrible, but the hole on the Karambit is about 1/32" bigger. I couldn't find my calipers last night, so I don't have an exact measurement, but when they were overlaid, the Karambit is definitely a hair bigger.

Awesome i should get mine in next week. If only betty trusted USPS then i'd have it by friday or saturday.
It's an awesome knife. I have mine set up with a zip-tie "ghetto wave" that works quite well for deployment into reverse grip.
I like that the finger hole is a bit bigger. The Swick's hole, while adequate, is less comfortable than the Karambit. But they're both winners.

i can't wait to get mine.
I found my calipers last night and the Swick hole is .910" while the Karambit is .980". Not a huge difference dimensionally, but depending on your hand, could be a bit better.

Here you go, thought i would show some other spydies for size comparison.
Sorry about the scratched blade, but they are all users, well not the Karambit and the Swick, still need a sheath for that one.

No need to apologize for actually using your spydies. I'm guilty of this too. My karambit will most likely see some pocket time.
