Description
TS Blades HORNET G3 Dummy Knife (Black)
The TS Blades HORNET G3 is a black dummy training knife in a karambit style, moulded from PVC. The karambit, with its curved, claw-like blade and finger ring, is one of the most distinctive knife shapes there is, and the HORNET lets you add that look to your airsoft kit or training bag without any sharp edge.
It belongs to the TS Blades G3 range of dummy knives, which offers several different blade profiles. If you want something that looks noticeably different from a standard fixed blade, the HORNET is the one to choose.
Build and materials
The HORNET is a single moulded piece of PVC. That keeps it light and blunt, with enough stiffness to handle and carry convincingly. The black colour gives a clean, low-profile look that works with most loadouts.
Karambit-style handling
Karambit-pattern knives are held differently from straight blades, usually with the index finger through the ring and the blade curving forward from the bottom of the fist. Practising with a dummy is the sensible way to learn this grip and the movements that go with it, and the HORNET’s blunt PVC construction makes it suitable for partner drills under supervision.
In airsoft games
Many sites accept approved soft training knives for knife kills, applied with a light touch. Rules vary, so always ask the marshals before taking the HORNET into play. As a loadout piece it adds a distinctive detail to a plate carrier or belt.

Compatibility
Because of its curved shape, the HORNET needs a sheath designed for karambit-style knives; a straight-blade sheath will not hold it properly. It can be worn on a belt, chest rig or plate carrier with a suitable sheath.
Care and maintenance
Clean it with a damp cloth and allow it to dry. Keep it away from strong heat so the PVC does not deform, and store it where the curved blade will not be bent or crushed.
Who is it for?
Players who want a distinctive karambit look for their kit, martial arts and defence instructors teaching karambit techniques, and prop users who need a safe curved blade.
Please note: Always check site rules on training knives before use in a game, and use a light touch.
