Fox Slim Dragotac Orange Folding Knife [FOX518O]
Bastinelli meets the Piemontese friction folder
Bastinelli designed the Slim Dragotac Piemontes to bring a contemporary outline to the older friction-folder idea. Fox’s catalogue explicitly connects the design with that traditional, non-locking construction rather than presenting it as a modern liner-lock knife.
The extended tang is part of the folding mechanism and the knife’s recognizable profile. Fox offered the pattern with both molded handles and natural wood, giving the same slim form quite different appearances.
