URBEX COLLECTION
URBEX COLLECTION
From urban landscapes to wide-open spaces
The acronym URBEX sums up the collection's ambitions. The knife is designed to be a vital companion for all those in tune ith the environment, who enjoy outdoor activities and connecting with wide-open spaces while pursuing a ontemporary way of life.
Our lifestyle today often has to keep pace with an intense work life. The demands of work are increasingly being met with a need to get away and recharge our batteries in wide-open spaces. URBEX was created for generations who navigate the urban jungle during the week and devote their weekends and holidays to
exploring new horizons, free from the pressure of their weekday working lives.
Every detail of URBEX has been tailored to modern adventurers: a 1.4110 stainless
steel blade that can be opened one-handed, with sharp teeth for greater slicing power, a orkscrew for downtime, a safety lock system, a punch/reamer awl with a sewing eye and a bottle opener with a screwdriver.
The knife also features a can opener with a built-in screwdriver and tweezers for more precise operations. All of this is elevated by a PVD coating, which gives these tools a
matte black finish that is both elegant and hard-wearing.
URBEX is not merely a multi-purpose tool; it is a proud statement of your way of life:
always prepared for everyday challenges while keeping an eye on the horizon,
ready to embark on the next adventure.
URBEX LAVA
The LAVA model conveys the raw power and spectacular phenomena displayed by forces of nature. Designed for extreme sports enthusiasts and lovers of state-of-the-art technology, it combines an elegant aesthetic with unparalleled sturdiness.
URBEX MIRAGE
MIRAGE captures the mystery of Saharan dunes with its sand-yellow hue and wavy texture. Inspired by the optical illusions that occur on stretches of desert, this radiant knife will immediately transport you to arid landscapes.
URBEX CANOPY
CANOPY pays homage to the dense and mysterious canopy of jungle vegetation. Its textured green surface brings to mind the quiet beauty of areas with lush vegetation, perfect for those who wish to combine peace of mind with a deep connection to nature.
