0,00 €This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
Gunstock Bison Micarta/Titanium, Satin is a contemporary reinterpretation of traditional EDC pocket knives, where Italian design meets precision manufacturing technology. The gently curved line of the Handle, typical of Gunstock design , improves the ergonomics of the grip and gives the design a timeless, collectible character. This model is designed for those who appreciate the classic form, but do not want to give up modern materials and technical precision. Blade made of Böhler M390powder steel, known for its exceptional sharpness retention, wear resistance and corrosion resistance - making it one of the best options for everyday use. The spear point profile with an elegant satin finish provides a balance between precision and versatility, while the classic nail nick allows for comfortable opening in any situation. The slipjoint mechanism, devoid of the classic locking mechanism, offers smooth operation and safe use, even in jurisdictions with restrictive knife ownership laws. Handle grips combine titanium bolsters with Bison Micarta composite grips, offering exceptional visual contrast and natural aesthetics. Ergonomic profiling and a high level of detail finish underscore the high quality typical of the Fox Knives brand.
M390 - Martensitic high-performance chrome steel produced by powder metallurgy. Due to its alloy concept, it has extremely high wear resistance and high corrosion resistance. Due to its high wear resistance, it adequately maintains the shape of the edge, so the blade stays sharp for a very long time (requiring minimal maintenance). Another of the advantages is resistance to the formation of “wire” during sharpening. The steel has a high chromium content of 20.0% (Cr) doped with 1.9% carbon (C), vanadium 4.0% (V), and is hardened between 59-61 HRC. This super steel is comparable to Carpenter's CPM 20CV or CTS-204P steels. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.
Blade - with spear point profile is made of powder M390 steel, providing long-lasting sharpness, high wear resistance and excellent protection against corrosion. The symmetrical shape of the blade promotes precision in linear cuts, while the flat grind enhances the working geometry and edge stability. The satin finish gives the wedge an elegant look and reduces friction in cuts. Opening is facilitated by a classic nail nick, which works well in a variety of grip conditions. The slipjoint mechanism guarantees controlled blade movement without locking, with a perceptible point of resistance and stabilization in the open and closed positions.
Handle - a combination of titanium bolsters and Bison Micarta composite, offering a balance between structural strength and natural aesthetics. The titanium reinforces the skeleton, increasing resistance to torsion, while the Bison Micarta brings excellent grip to the handle. The overall design has been ergonomically contoured, which provides comfort and sure grip for everyday use. Carefully finished edges and perfectly fitted parts confirm the precision of manufacture. An internal mechanism based on a steel spring stabilizes the blade, while keeping the design lightweight. Comes with a leather pouch for storage and portability. Fox Gunstock is an ideal choice for lovers of classic forms, who expect the highest quality workmanship and modern performance.
