FOX Core Black Carbon Fiber, PVD Elmax by Jesper Voxnæs (FX-604 CF)

Core Black Carbon Fiber, PVD folder from the Italian company FOX with a wide blade for great versatility. One of the best knives for everyday use with two ways to open the blade, with a flipper or an oval opening. Designed by respected Danish knifemaker Jesper Voxnaes owner of VoxDesign. A favorite knife of outdoor and survival enthusiasts, the perfect E.D.C. folder.

Elmax - considered "the best all-around knife steel" a modern alloy steel with a high content of chromium 17.30% (Cr), carbon 1.70% (C), vanadium 3.00% (V), molybdenum 1.00% (Mo), silicon 0.80% (Si). Hardened in the range of 57-62 HRC. Produced by powder metallurgy, it is characterized by extreme edge holding, high wear and corrosion resistance, and dimensional stability. Manufactured at Böhler-Uddeholm steel mills in Austria.

PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) - the resistance of the surface of the wedge and cutting edge is enhanced by a vacuum deposition method used to deposit thin films by condensing an evaporated form of the desired material onto the surface of the workpiece. The coating method involves a purely physical process such as high-temperature vacuum evaporation followed by condensation. The applied coating has a very high hardness which significantly increases the resistance of the blade to rust and abrasive wear.

Blade - wide, Drop Point type with black PVD coating. The generous belly extends the length of the cutting edge in relation to the length of the blade converging towards the needle-sharp tip of the knife. The thickness of the blade provides high strength while the high, flat grind gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ball bearings support the opening of the blade with a quick flipper (index-finger flipper) when opened acting as a stag. We can also open the knife using the oval opening in the blade (thumb hole). The whole thing is locked with a proven and popular liner lock.

Handle - facings made of Carbon Fiber, a lightweight, weatherproof, chemical-resistant material. Chamfered edges of the covers eliminate sharp edges and surface texturing improves grip confidence. The solid backspacer to which the facings are attached guarantees the rigidity and strength of the entire structure. A two-position (right/left) lightweight wire clip allows the knife to be carried in tip-up position, with the tip of the blade upward. Above the clip a hole for threading a safety or decorative cord.
