Its sleek, curved profile complements a hawkbill-style blade and a meticulously milled aluminum handle—all engineered to meet the demands of professionals and enthusiasts alike. The FOX478B features a 3.2-inch blade made of Bohler N690Co cobalt-vanadium stainless steel—an alloy renowned for its excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance.

The handle is constructed from anodized T6-6061 aircraft-grade aluminum, offering a lightweight yet robust foundation with textured milling for secure grip. A steel liner lock ensures blade safety during use, while an ambidextrous tip-up pocket clip allows carry from either side. The integrated finger ring facilitates both traditional and reverse grip control. The FOX478B measures 8.5 inches overall, with a 5.25-inch handle and a 3.2-inch blade. It weighs approximately 4.6 ounces, delivering a balanced, nimble feel. Manufactured in Italy, this model follows the renowned Fox Knives standards.
