FOXFX595W: FX-596 G10 OD AF Veleno Fixed Blade Dagger - Double Edged

Fox Knives

The Veleno FX-596 dagger is a modern tribute to elite precision and heritage, inspired by a 2022 project commissioned by Italy’s Special Intervention Group of the Carabinieri (GIS), a unit forged in 1978 during a time of rising national security challenges. Drawing from the legacy of operatives originally selected from the renowned "Tuscania" paratroopers and continuing today as a highly specialized counter-terrorism and anti-guerrilla force, the Veleno embodies the unit’s enduring philosophy: strength through individual excellence. Its design reimagines the classic ceremonial dagger once carried by the GIS, originally based on the now-retired Mark II, elevating it with refined lines and premium materials that reflect both tradition and evolution. Sleek, purposeful, and steeped in meaning, the Veleno FX-596 is more than a fixed blade; it is a symbol of discipline, adaptability, and elite performance.

N690

The cobalt-alloyed N690 by Böhler (not to be confused with the lower-grade N695) is a very reliable upper middle-grade steel Fox uses for a wide variety of projects. The fine-grained N690, which ranks above 440C, offers convincing performance data in all areas. It is often sold as N690Co – the "Co" stands for cobalt and describes the exact same steel.
