- Fox Knives FX 143MB Field Review. The FX-143MB is a very cool knife from FOX Knives in Maniago. made with Niolox steel, that's a Niobium enhanced stainless steel which is used in the food processing industry to make industrial cutter blades. it can be hardened from 57 right up to HRC 63! FOX Knives are giving it a HRC of 59-61, so it's pretty darn hard! A beautiful satin finish along with natural jute impregnated resin micarta scales give this small 4" upswept blade a sophisticated but practical look and feel.
The FOX KNIVES FX-143MB comes with a leather scabbard and a belt loop which can fit up to a 1" wide belt size.
The FX-143MB is made in Italy
In this video I will also show a cool tip with a fire steel (I've shown it before but it was some years ago in the early days of the channel).

great review. Love that you actually showed it being used for a variety of realistic tasks. I'm stuck between this and the fx-529 TUR.
Glad it was helpful!
Fantastic review friend, looks like great value for the money.
Hi there, yeah it seems to me to be a great little knife with a lot of potential for hunting and just the other stuff i was doing with it. There will be more videos with it as time goes by. Thanks for watching.
I was debating whether or not to buy this knife for quite some time. I suspect it to be a great skinner and I dearly need one. I'd only like to have a kydex for it as it is way easier to keep clean. Thanks for reviewing it!
Hi there thanks for watching. I reckon it will make a great skinner as long as you don't have really big hands like size 9 and above
I got a sheath kydex made with primaloptions. They did a good job and were reasonably priced. Takes a few weeks though.
Hey hey! Howa it going? Love fox knives,great value for the money. You should look into WC knives. They have become some of my favorites,especially the Black bird. Take care and keep the vids comming!
I have a few WC knives, and I love the Blackbird. Multi-grind knives mostly about 17-19 degrees. Very sharp.
@@willieboy3011 Yeah his designs I really like. I don't have any as yet though..................
I'm great thanks for asking. Yeah too in regards to WC knives, they look great, as you know I have several knives with recurved blade profiles.
Good review. Love the blade length, mandatory guard, practical handle, and even grind (flat). Not familiar with that steel. The birch burned well. Rich pine is the prize here, but pine straw will always work too. I always learn something on your videos.
Many thanks for watching and commenting. yes this is only the second blade for me made out of a Niobium enhanced steel, the other one I have uses "Becut" a trade name for another stainless, also used in the food processing industry where blades have to remain sharp for long periods on certain cutting machines. it too BTW was manufactured by FOX but there are probably several generic Niobium stainless producers around these days. I can tell you it is incredibly wear resistant. The other really amazing wear resistant steel is Böhler's K340 (a kind of modified D2), I know it's anecdotal but I only have one knife made from this a Kizlyar Supreme Echo, hunting knife and I was basically stunned at all i put that blade through on Aussie eucalyptus wood (which is like steel when it dead); I cut so much meat off the bone, vegies up on hardwood chopping boards, bamboo carving and general hacking around the farm, it wasn't funny and probably i was def trying to blunt it (not by abuse of course) and the edge was just great after one month of hard use!
@@BushCampingTools Very interesting. I have a Kizlyer Supreme folder in D2, an excellent liner lock. Loved the Eucalyptus leaves. One of them had a lemon smell. I have wondered about the K340 steel. Some Russians use it. Thanks.
G'day BCT, a lot to like about this design IMO; does look cool but more importantly I expect it will do a range of tasks well. I have heard of Niolox, but no experience, anything stain....less, gets my attention straight away, (salt water/air and @ times high humidity here). With that hardness, will be interesting to see how it goes for sharpening.
Cheers Duke.
Yeah, it does so far seem a very versatile shape and I know from a BECUT knife I have (also a Nb enhanced steel), it has good resistance to corrosion. The harness thing, well let's see after several months of usage and i'll pos something bak here again on what it's like to sharpen.
