FoxEdge Atrax OD Green Micarta, Satin by Simonutti (FE-027 MOD)

Fox Cutlery is one of the companies coming from the famous "knife basin" Maniago in Italy. In cooperation with the best knifemakers they create excellent knives with the best materials.
Atrax Green Micarta, compact folder E.D.C., design by Denis Simonutti. The project of the Italian designer combines a quality/price and functionality ratio that is hard to beat.

Blade - 3 mm thick with Wharncliffe profile, provides excellent cutting-edge geometry at low resistance. Blade is made of well sharpened 8Cr13MoV stainless steel (equivalent to Japanese AUS-8 steel). Plain type blade with Flat Grind for excellent cutting performance and weight savings. Elegant Satin finish. Cut-outs in the blade allow opening the blade with cold or wet hands as well as in a glove. Additionally, the knife can be opened with a flipper. Both methods are suitable for both right- and left-handed operation. Corrugated supports: thumb ramp (spine jimping) and finger choil jimping, index finger undercut on lock.

8Cr13MoV - easy to sharpen stainless knife steel, equivalent to Japanese AUS-8 steel. High content of 13.0% chromium and average 0.8% carbon provide excellent corrosion resistance. The presence of 1.0% silicon, 0.3% molybdenum increase the steel strength and wear resistance. 8Cr13MoV is characterized by high hardness in the range of 57-62 HRC.

Skeletonized stainless steel plates provide exceptional strength of construction, while forming the basis for the Liner-Lock mechanism of the jimped liner head lock. The whole is bolted together with torx screws for easy unfolding and folding of the folder.

Handle - profiled, covered with non-slip textured grips made of green micarta (durable, resistant to high and low temperatures, chemicals). Facings are attached to a solid spacer (so called backspacer / handle linings connector) made of G10 plastic, which provides strength of construction. Solid, double-sided cutout in the handle guarantees intuitive right/left hand access to the opening as well as to the head lock release. Metal clip (right side) allows you to carry the knife in tip-up position. The lanyard hole in the back of the handle is for attaching a lanyard or safety line.
