BlackFox Nix Orange G10, Black PTFE D2 by Grigorii Matveev (BF-763 OR)

Nix Orange G10, Black PTFE ultralight and compact universal EDC folder designed by Grigorii Matveev. Thanks to the excellent ergonomics of the grip and the Blade to Handle ratio, we get the impression of working with a much larger knife, and its capabilities are surprising compared to its size. It also fits in smaller pockets, an ideal folder for discreet carrying in places where you don't want to attract too much attention.

High Speed D2 - a high-carbon, high-chromium high-speed tool steel heat-treated to 58-60 HRC. With a high 13.0% chromium (Cr) content, it offers greater corrosion resistance than most high-carbon steels. Combines strength, excellent edge holding and easy sharpening. Features high wear resistance due to high carbide content in the microstructure.

PTFE Black - widely used in the coating industry, polytetrafluoroethylene is an ultra-fine, low molecular weight product processed by a special process. It is characterized by excellent chemical and weathering and temperature resistance, thermal stability, non-stickiness, electrical insulation, fire resistance and self-lubrication. Thanks to the use of polytetrafluoroethylene as a blade coating material, friction during use is reduced, thus reducing the need for force during all kinds of work. PTFE-coated blades provided 22% lower average force and 26% lower maximum force compared to chrome-coated blades.

Blade - solid Drop Point type, coated with black PTFE 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. Washers are responsible for the smooth operation of the blade's opening mechanism, which allows the knife to be opened with a thumb hole in the blade (thumb hole) ideal for right- and left-handers or with a front flipper. Half finger choil, an undercut for the index finger between the handle and the cutting edge, and upper jimping notched section of the back of the Blade for the thumb allow a secure grip close to the blade, very comfortable for fine and precision work. The whole is locked with the proven and popular liner lock.

Handle - grips made of G10 (pressure-pressed fiberglass with synthetic resin), textured to improve grip confidence, are bolted to the knife's steel frame. The whole is stiffened by a solid steel backspacer. The simple, sturdy design gives you the assurance of many years of use. A two-position (right/left) metal deep-carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in the tip-up position (blade tip up). A protruding section of the backspacer creates a lanyard hole, a hole for threading a safety or decorative cord.
