Does this look like the famous karambit from cs:go to you?

I wonder if that's why it was made?

It literally says Karambit... I dont see what youre trying to get at, someone 3D printed one, painted it, and wants to sell it.

It literally even says "as seen in popular video games"

Just thought it was funny since most people who would buy that knife don't play the game

Hint hint I am a minority

Also thought could valve claim that as a ripoff of their game?

CSGO can go screw itself.

 

DOGE is the real star here

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

It's a steel knife. CS:GO didn't invent karambits.

What? Of course not. They don't own the idea of a karambit, It's a real world knife that they added into the game, and happen to have some skins for it. Then this guy just painted one so it might look like one in the game. Nothing here is a ripoff of anything except maybe the concept of painting it that exact color, and even then there is no legal action Valve could take, even if they cared. 

"LTT's official.."STOP. I promise you aren't LTT's official bagel eater or whatever. Trust me.

My thoughts too.

 

I think it's the paint style he's talking about. Not the karambit itself.

Well yeah, but then again there were faded/patina style steel knives much before CS:GO.
