FKMD Taranis FX-0171114

 FKMD TARANIS FOX KNIVES ITALY



Built like a tank, simple, 7.5" fixed blade, N690 cobalt steel 5mm thick spine, black Idroglider PTFE blade coating.


The FKMD Taranis FX-0171114 is a classic "clip point" design knife blade.

5mm 0.2" thick spine

Classic clip point blade shape! Forprene Grip.



Excellent chopper for a 7.5" blade, due to metal distribution helped by the placement of the tang.



Full Molle compatible carry system. Symmetric scabbard.


Knife "Strip"



Note despite the grip completely covering the tang, this IS NOT an electrical insulator and the FX-0171114 is NOT intended to be used as such.

Everything for this fire, including the meat skewers etc and cutting up of the cooked meat was basically prepared using the FKMD Taranis
