- Veleno Black Aluminum, Black Top Shield dagger with symmetrical blade on both sides. Designed for close quarters or indoor combat. Perfectly balanced, easy to carry, very slim and effective. Reliable!
The Veleno Black Aluminum, Black Top Shield dagger with a symmetrical sharp blade on both sides, is reminiscent of the knife that Fox made for the G.I.S. (Gruppo d'Intervento Speciale), the special operations / anti-terrorist group of the Italian Carabinieri. The Veleno derives from a reinterpretation of the ceremonial dagger, made more attractive by the materials used: a blade made of N690 steel with a Top Shield® finish and an aluminum handle finished in black, which resembles the distinctive color of this special forces unit.
N690Co - cobalt-rich 1.65% (Co) corrosion-resistant, high-carbon 1.07% (C), martensitic chromium steel 17.30% (Cr) with molybdenum 1.10% (Mo), vanadium 0.10% (V). Developed to provide better wear resistance compared to the original Böhler N690 steel, but with higher cobalt (Co) content in its composition. It features exceptionally high corrosion resistance and long edge retention. One of the best tool steels in the world today. Hardened in the 58-61 HRC range. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.

At the base of the Blade double finger guard double-sided hilt to protect the hand from slipping on the blade.
