Fox Saturn Black Titanium, Satin M390 by Denis Simonutti knife (FX-551 TI)

Saturn Black Titanium, Satin, winner of the Overall Knife of the Year category at the Blade Show 2021! Perfect workmanship, the finest materials and an innovative, extremely secure blade lock! The quintessence of Italian style! Designed by renowned Italian knifemaker, Denis Simonutti.

M390 - martensitic high-performance chrome steel produced by powder metallurgy. Due to the 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 - Dagger type, extremely sharp, finished with elegant satin finish. The smooth Plain blade is derived with a flat grind, which provides strength, excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Double finger guard double-sided hilt protects your hand from slipping on the blade. Smooth and smooth opening is ensured by the gently notched button of the Fingers Safe Opening System

Fingers Safe Opening System - the locking mechanism is operated by a button within reach of the thumb. The blade opens and locks by gently pressing this button and then sliding it in a milled half circle. The blade closes by sliding the button in the opposite direction. Thanks to the design, our fingers will never get in the way of the blade.

Handle - grips made of solid titanium, a very light and durable material. Twisted together using a spacer. Thanks to this design, the knife is very light, while maintaining high strength. The right-handed, single-position titanium deep-carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in tip-up (blade up) position. The sheaths and the clip are coated with black PVD.

Additional accessories - a high-quality leather sheath for safe carrying and storage of the knife.
