SHOP CASE KNIVESSKU: FX527SMTS
The Fox Knives SMKW Exclusive Yaru Folding Knife pushes the limits of modern knife design with elite materials and bold styling. Designed by Jesper Voxnaes and handmade in Maniago, Italy, the Yaru is built around a 2.76-inch reverse tanto blade made from ultra-premium Vanax steel—known for its unmatched corrosion resistance, exceptional toughness, and long-lasting edge retention. The black coated finish adds low-reflection stealth and added durability.
Built for daily carry and serious use, the Yaru opens fast and smooth with a flipper tab or thumb hole and locks up tight with a precision-machined titanium framelock. The front scale is SMKW-exclusive Toxic Storm FatCarbon, a high-strength carbon fiber composite layered in electric yellow, gray, and black—eye-catching and unapologetically aggressive. The rear scale is made of solid black titanium, keeping the weight down while maintaining full structural integrity.
Rounding out the build is a yellow anodized titanium backspacer with a lanyard slot and a milled titanium pocket clip with a ceramic glider ball for smooth, reliable carry. At 3.93 inches closed and 3.35 ounces, the Yaru hits the sweet spot between strength, portability, and control.
This is a cutting tool that doesn't compromise—designed for those who demand modern performance and aren't afraid to carry something that stands out.
