The **Fox Bushman FX-609** is a large and robust outdoor knife, perfect for bushcraft and survival tasks. When you hold the Bushman you immediately know that this knife was made for the more demanding tasks. You can tell by the impressive blade thickness, and the matching weight. But also because of the interesting grind of the blade. From the flat part onwards there is a primary flat grind with, on top, a secondary flat grind which closely resembles a scandi grind, with, below, the actual V-edge. As such the edge is incredibly strong.

 The blade is made from is D2-steel. A type of tool steel that is incredibly tough and strong. Do, however, be careful with moisture and acids: D2 is not completely stainless. But you do get that toughness in return.

 The handle of the Fox Bushman is made from micarta. A composite material from linen and synthetic resin. Incredibly strong and it feels great in hand. Especially when wet it will offer you more grip because the textile fibres expand. Practical in outdoor conditions.

 Such an impressive knife deserves a good sheath, is what the producers at Fox should have thought. The sheath that comes with the Fox Bushman is made from luxurious American leather. The sheath is enhanced with two leather belt loops. There are also additional holes to make sure you can attach the belt loops in different ways for different carrying options.

Ho acquistato il coltello dopo aver visto molti video che lo recensivano come ottimo e perché cercavo un prodotto italiano in questa categoria. 
Ad un primo approccio il coltello m'è sembrano molto bello, robusto e abbastanza comodo. Provato su carta: molto affilato. Il fodero è ben fatto, forse un po' stretto per far passare al lama senza un attrito dell stessa che mi fa dubitare che potrebbe interferire con il filo della stessa. Tuttavia fodero solido e comodo da portare in due modi. L'impugnatura ha un buon gruppo ma penalizza la comodità soprattutto senza guanti, pur mantenendo una buona ergonomia. Purtroppo però andando oltre l'impressione finale non è stata all'altezza delle aspettative, anzi son rimasto abbastanza negativamente sorpreso: durante il primo approccio all'uso per provarlo su legno e con piccoli tagli precisi di punta ho notato che il bisello del coltello è parecchio asimmetrico proprio sulla  punta per cui la stessa é fuori centro, sarà un millimetro o meno, ma è un grosso difetto di fabbricazione su un coltello di questa fascia. Mi sarei aspettata una maggiore accuratezza nel controllo di qualità da parte di una ditta rinomata come la Fox. Un bisello finale asimmetrico in punta è davvero un grossolano errore nel processo di fabbricazione...Certo si può ovviare al difetto con un po' di lavoro di fino, ma non dovrebbe essere necessario su un coltello come questo!

Goed mes voor het juiste adres in de bossen 
Goed in de hand liggende mes 

Quando è arrivato e l'ho impugnato sono rimasto commosso a dir poco... Per i miei gusti, ha questo aspetto retrò che ricorda coltelli anni 50. Con la differenza che è di tecnologia elevata, un acciaio potente, bilanciato in avanti, filo rasoio di fabbrica che non perde niente. Senza fronzoli, possente ma al tempo stesso maneggevole, ci fai tutto, sia cose grosse che di fino. Sarà impossibile liberarsene.

Solide, arrivé affuté rasoir, bon équilibre et bonne prise en main. Très bel étui.

Correspond tout à fait à mes attentes et à la description, bonne prise en main et tranchant rasoir.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

molle_compatible

MOLLE is a mounting system that allows you to attach sheaths and other accessories to backpacks. With this specification we indicate whether a product is already MOLLE-compatible by default. [Want to learn more MOLLE](/en/ct/what-is-molle.htm)?

MOLLE-compatible

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
