In 1977 Oreste Frati established FOX Coltellerie. The name of the company (the initials of the owner) immediately seems to be the right one. The company becomes immediately appreciated for the brilliant ideas and for the research of new materials and application of new technologies.
The material of this super light and handy little axe is high carbon stainless cutlery steel from the most modern of Sweden's steel mills. The European Ash handle is shaped to enable you to work hour after hour making the most of the 5-1/2" cutting edge of this remarkable tool.
Grizzly Adams probably carried a knife similar to this. It is a handful, but not too large for easy carry. Features a 6-3/8" California clip blade, with a swedge on both sides, of Sandvik stainless steel at 55-57 Rc. Constructed with a slightly tapered full tang allowing the use of European Stag for handle scales.
This slim bowie is reminiscent of the knives from the California Gold Rush of the 1850's. It is well suited for the cowboy shooter who wants an authentic knife for his outfit.
If you like large knives, this 12-1/2" bowie is one that you will really enjoy. Rogers' Rangers would have called it a "scalp knife", Houston's men at San Jacinto would have called it "a knife like Bowie's", today's troops call it a "Camp Knife".
