KNIFE - FOX KNIVES - BLACK FOX - VULPIS - GRENADE PATTERM

For over four decades, Fox Knives has been engaging with a dynamic and competitive market and has chosen to pursue research and development with a bold and distinctive approach: a constantly evolving design.

The company's roots in the local area remain the artisanal instinct with which it operates, studying the history of Maniago cutlery to update its industrial production processes.

The VULPIS series was born from the need to create a compact, versatile pocket knife with a modern style that perfectly complements the company's historic products. The inspiration for this line stems from the DUCA, the name given to the Maniago pocket knife, a knife created in the second half of the 19th century in Maniago, when hunting penknives were produced with blades of various sizes, ivory toothpicks, and tweezers for removing thorns. These knives were presented at the National Exhibition in Turin in 1888 by the Bet Giovanni company, which won the gold medal for the quality of its products. It was thus that, most likely, Luigi Amedeo di Savoia, Duke of Abruzzi, decided to visit one of the company's two stores in Turin, where he saw and ordered the four-blade pocket knife, which he chose as an integral part of his equipment for the expedition to the North Pole he led in 1899.

The VULPIS series is a line of items divided into two sizes: the smallest with a total length of 11 cm - 4.33" and the largest with a total length of 13.5 cm - 5.31".

The small one features a single blade, while the larger one starts with a single blade and goes all the way up to five uses: hacksaw, bottle opener, can opener, flathead screwdriver, and scissors.
