Reate Vulpex VK-FUX - Elmax Hand Rubbed Acid Wash Blade - Darkwashed Titanium

Elmax Linerlock with Titanium Handles

The Reate Vulpex VK-FUX is a compact folding knife built for everyday carry, pairing a premium steel blade with a durable titanium handle. Reate is known for precision machining and fit, and the Vulpex delivers that quality in a slim, pocketable package.

Blade

The 3.3" drop point blade is made from Elmax steel with a hand rubbed acid wash finish. Elmax is a powder metallurgy steel that offers strong edge retention, good corrosion resistance, and solid toughness, making it a reliable choice for daily use. The acid wash finish adds a mottled, low-glare look while helping mask fingerprints and minor wear.

Handle

The handle is made from titanium, darkwashed for a mottled, non-reflective appearance. Titanium is lightweight, corrosion resistant, and durable, contributing to the knife's low overall weight of 3.83 ounces while maintaining a solid, high-quality feel in hand.

Carry

The Vulpex uses a linerlock, a simple and reliable mechanism where a spring-loaded liner locks behind the blade to hold it open; pushing the liner aside releases the blade for closing. The pocket clip is positioned for right-hand, tip-up carry, allowing for quick and discreet access.
