Exclusive Interview w/ Ernest Emerson & the Karambit Knife Blade Show 2011

[jbravo41]

Cool dude, his fighting system is really good.

[Kyu1LL]

Wow... he seems SO down to earth and such a nice guy / speaker! Looks super friendly too! But yeah, do NOT want to mess with this guy. The wave feature story was exactly what I was wondering about so this video rocked haha.

@Kyu1LL:

Were you referring to that initial comment toward me (the speaker) or Ernest? If you were referring to me, I think you should be directing that comment to Ernest, as I too would not EVEN want to take on his expertise in any kind of knife duel. He's a master in his own right when it comes to that area. PLUS, there would be NO REASON to, as he truly is a kind hearted person, who's helping others through his talents. He's a one of a kind person !!! :-) Thanks for the post, Later... Lad...

[Kyu1LL]

@ReNuTechSolutions I was referring to Mr. Emerson, but you're cool too!

[ReNuTechSolutions]

@Kyu1LL:

LOL !!! That's too funny !!! XD That's who I thought you were referring too, but I do appreciate the Big-Ups as well. :-D I can say one thing, that Combat Karambit DVD set that Ernest produced is extremely helpful. It teaches you so much about the phycology of not getting into any bad situation to begin with & how to use this defense tool as a last resort if you have no other choices. Fantastic practicals; beginners & experts alike will love this 2 Disc DVD set, over 5 hrs of training.

[Kyu1LL]

@ReNuTechSolutions awesome. yeah, I'll definitely think about that one. It was good speaking to you on the phone today too! I will keep in touch about the Fox Karambits once I decide whether or not I want to go with the standard or resized version. If they put the KARAMBIT logo on the resized one, it'd be a no-brainer. I like that bit of artwork.

[ReNuTechSolutions]

@Kyu1LL:

Well, we'll see what happens if they do or not. One thing that I can say is that it does cost more to Laser Mark each knife with that gold etching, and we're just trying to be more cost effective. That in no way hinders the performance of the knife and brings out more the stealth feature of the black blade. I know that if you really want this done there are plenty of trophy shops as well as laser marking companies that would be able to do that for you for a small price. Later... :-)

Great guy!

[saspost]

Awesome video! Mr Emerson is a Great guy!

[DezyreHD]

emersons a beast, i have respect for him

[SUFFOCATIONFAN]

think of what emerson could do to you with that karambit...

[ReNuTechSolutions]

@SUFFOCATIONFAN:

Quite a bit of damage. That's why I kept my distance.... Have you seen Ernest Emerson's - The Complete Combat Karambit DVD training set? It's one of the BEST Karambit Training DVD sets out there and we have it on our site. It's worth every penny !!! Later... :-)

[EvilMonkeyDC]

ahhh idk if i want to get the emerson karambit, or the fox karambit, i love them both and think they are wonderful knives, i just dont know which to pick :(

[ReNuTechSolutions]

@EvilMonkeyDC: As mentioned before, they are both great High Quality knives, not only in their unique design but also in their performance. Trust us, you won't go wrong with either one. I should know I carry both of them. Thanks for your post... :-)

[EvilMonkeyDC]

@ReNuTechSolutions well i have a mantis karambit, its ok, but its not the best, but i want the best quailty, i do really like the resized fox karambit, and when i get the cash, im aiming at that one, bcuz it looks like it would fit my hand better then the original, that was my only main worry was if the handle would protrude alot, but i think the resized one would be perfect for me, thank you for responding as fast as you did! :)

[ReNuTechSolutions]

@EvilMonkeyDC: No pressure, I'm glad I could respond. I want to say that most of what you're saying holds true with the NEW Resized & Retooled FOX Karambit Knife. It's an ounce lighter, but it's half and half when it comes to what people want. Some want the fuller sized one and it being longer, while others want the slightly smaller resized one for smaller hands. I know some out there are concerned about cost, so they'll purchase another brand that less the cost, but...

[ReNuTechSolutions]

@EvilMonkeyDC: ...but as you're already experiencing with the current karambit knife that you mentioned that you have is "just ok." That is the WHOLE reason why we do not resell products that are "just ok," for the VERY same reason you just mentioned; IT'S ABOUT QUALITY. HIGH QUALITY AT THAT. I don't say this to be cliche, but I honestly mean this when we say - YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. To me you CAN'T put a price tag on your life when it comes to defending it. Thanks for your reply, later, Lad

[MrMathsStraightRazor]

Which raises the question: Why hasn't Emerson made a balisong recently? Other than those silly California laws and such.

[ReNuTechSolutions]

@MrMathsStraightRazor: I wish I could tell you, sorry. Don't have an answer for that. You should call them directly (check their site) and they can tell you why. Later... :-)

[brijseeker]

Beautiful craftmanship on your karambits......The krambits is a blade to be respected.Seen first hand what devastation it can do even before they were introduced in the US. The good thing is that the materials are alot better when constructed in America. Very inspring story , love to get a live blade and trainer karambit. Thanks for the posting this vid.

[ReNuTechSolutions]

@brijseeker: Thanks for the Big-Ups on the interview. Just to let you know we are also working on getting the newer resized & retooled FOX Karambit Knives made here in the USA. It will be a collaboration of the handles made in Italy's manufacturing warehouse and the blades made here at the FOX Knives USA manufacturing warehouse. We are grateful for this collaboration taking place. Thank you for your post... Lad... :-)

[ReNuTechSolutions]

@brijseeker: Also, in response to the other thing you mentioned about the Karambit knives being a respected knife, I can only say how underestimated this tool of defense is in action. To us this is truly one of the best knifes out there for comfort, control and strength !!! And those read this will only know that once they get one of these Emerson or FOX Karambit Knives in their hands. Again, thanks for your post, later... Lad... :-)

[brijseeker]

@ReNuTechSolutions I totally agree with you on that 1oo%! Some of the guys I know are just realizing it, The moment I was exposed to karambits 20 years ago I realized how unique and comfortable it was in my hand and with my mobility ,then it really sealed the deal when I saw the outcome in use. You guys are doing a great job! keep it up.

[ReNuTechSolutions]

@brijseeker: Thanks for the compliment, we greatly appreciate it. You're the SUPPORT OF TRUTH to everything we realized with this amazing product !!! We can't say it enough - the ONLY way the rest of everyone else is going to know; order our knife and try it for yourself. We even back it up with a 7 DAY TRIAL MONEY BACK GUARANTEE !!! We're that confident about this HIGH QUALITY product. I don't know of another company that'll provide that with a CQC Defense Tool. Thanks again, later, Lad - :-)

[ReNuTechSolutions]

@brijseeker: Just to let you know, we're also going to post up some short vids of Ernie Emerson IN ACTION with the Combat Karambit Knife here shortly within the next few weeks. You'll see FIRST HAND how amazing this knife truly is, Lad...

[XFoolXProofX]

Great video. He seems like he would be a cool dude to hang out with. Cant wait to get my knives in the mail.

[ReNuTechSolutions]

@XFoolXProofX:
