Reate VK-ANUB FAQ

Designed in collaboration with Vulpex Knives, the Reate VK-ANUB combines high-performance Elmax blade steel with versatile opening methods and premium handle finishes.

What blade steel and profile does the Reate VK-ANUB use?
The Reate VK-ANUB features an Elmax steel blade measuring approximately 3 1/8 inches. It is ground into a modified Wharncliffe blade shape with a full flat grind, offering a balance of fine slicing control and tip utility.
What opening methods does the Reate VK-ANUB support?
The VK-ANUB is designed primarily as a front flipper, but it supports multiple deployment styles. A long fuller with a distinctive pass-through brass insert allows for a smooth standard thumb roll or an intentional middle-finger reverse flick.
What handle materials are available in the VK-ANUB series?
The VK-ANUB lineup includes roughly six different variants featuring diverse materials and finishes. Options range from standard titanium frames to premium builds with Dark Matter FatCarbon and crystallized titanium.
What locking mechanism does the Reate VK-ANUB use?
The VK-ANUB uses an integrated frame lock mechanism engineered for dependable, secure lockup. Unlike non-locking detent slipjoint designs, the frame lock securely holds the blade open during cutting tasks.
Why are Reate-manufactured knives so highly regarded?
Reate Knives is recognized for world-class production tolerances, refined fit and finish, and exceptionally smooth action. In addition to their own original models, Reate is trusted by numerous custom makers to manufacture high-end production knives.
