Victorinox Alox Swiss pocket knife: handles made from aluminium
Most Victorinox pocket knives feature their recognizable red plastic scales. The Alox collection is one of the exceptions. Instead of plastic, the handles are made from coloured Alox: aluminium. The scales are made from punched aluminium with a protective anodized oxidation coating. This makes the handle even more resistant to corrosion and general wear and tear. In addition, the texture of the pattern also provides extra grip. Because of this finish, an Alox pocket knife will not easily slip out of your hand during use.
