Handcrafted Tibetan Kartika ritual knife with five-pronged Dorje handle in brass. Symbol of liberation for ritual practice. 14cm, authentic.
The Kartika, also known as the ritual crescent knife, is one of the most powerful symbols in Tibetan Buddhism. It is traditionally held by protective deities such as Mahakala, the Dakinis, Yama, Yamantaka, and the Dharmapalas. The crescent-shaped blade represents the cutting through of all material and worldly attachments that hinder spiritual progress.
This Kartika is crafted from brass and features a five-pronged Dorje as its handle. The combination of the cutting blade and the symbol of indestructible spiritual power makes it a meaningful ritual tool. It represents the overcoming of ego, ignorance, and illusion.
The Kartika serves as a powerful object for ritual practice, as an altar item, or as a spiritual symbol. It reminds us to release limiting patterns and cultivate inner freedom.
