The blade of this fixed knife is crafted from 1095 carbon steel and measures 9.6 cm. In the realm of knife steels, 1095 is a true classic. Knives made from 1095 have been produced for many decades. It is durable and easy to sharpen.

1095 carbon steel is not stainless. In fact, it tarnishes rather quickly when exposed to moisture and/or salt and acid. Therefore, it is important to clean the knife after use and occasionally apply a drop of oil. Over time, 1095 steel develops a patina, which makes it less prone to corrosion.

This knife features a Scandi grind. As the name implies, this grind originates from Scandinavia. A Scandi grind excels in woodcarving, making it a popular choice for bushcraft knives.

The handle of the Fox Knives Ego TK-FX01 is made from G10. This is a composite material consisting of glass fibers and synthetic resin. It is extremely strong, provides excellent grip, and feels comfortable in the hand. Additionally, it is resistant to moisture and is a very stable material. An outstanding choice for the handle of a fixed-blade knife.
