184,54 €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.
Oxylos Black Micarta, Stonewashed combines Italian utilitarian craftsmanship with a philosophy of designing tools for intensive field use. It was created as a compact fixed blade, which maintains full structural stability and offers reliable control, even in demanding environmental conditions. The distinctive clean profile line emphasizes its functional character, while the full tang enhances stress and impact resistance. Blade made of Böhler N690 stainless steel, hardened to the appropriate operating parameters, guarantees high sharpness retention and corrosion resistance - crucial in wet or forest environments. The stonewashed finish masks scratches and gives the blade a utilitarian look, while the drop point profile allows for precise and controlled cuts in a variety of utility scenarios - from rope cutting to woodworking. The Micarta composite Handle is designed to provide an uncompromising grip - the textured surface provides a high coefficient of friction even when in contact with water or mud. Separate finger indentations and a safety cable hole make it easier to operate the tool in off-road situations. The design culminates in a sheath made of natural leather, designed to allow quick access and safe carrying of the knife on a belt or outdoor equipment.
FOX Oxylos is for users who need a reliable tool for off-road tasks - rugged, compact and ready to perform without compromise.
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 range of 59-61 HRC. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.
Blade - drop point type is made of corrosion-resistant Böhler N690 steel , offering an excellent balance between hardness, sharpness retention and ease of sharpening. The geometry has been chosen for precise and controlled field tasks - the wide belly promotes smooth handling, while the sharply pointed tip enables efficient point cuts. The stonewashed finish gives the surface a matte texture, effectively hiding signs of wear and emphasizing the tactical nature of the model. On the back of the blade is a milling (jimping), which provides better thumb control during pressure work. Thanks to the full tang construction, the knife retains maximum rigidity and resistance, even with prolonged use in the field.
Handle grips - Micarta composite grips , attached to the full Blade shaft, offer a high level of grip regardless of conditions - dry, wet or even dirty. The milled texture and natural profiling promote gloved comfort and facilitate precise maneuvering of the tool in various grips. On the back there is a hole for a rope or braid, which increases personalization options and safety when carrying. The whole is complemented by a leather sheath, suitable for quick retrieval and compatible with outdoor equipment. Handle of the FOX Oxylos model combines material durability with practical ergonomics, meeting the needs of modern off-road users.
