Product Description
Designed by Rich Derespina, the Fox 590 karambit is nice to look at and easy to use. It’s equipped with a Teflon-coated hawkbill blade made of N690Co stainless steel for good edge retention Read More
For the record, 'N690Co' turns out to be regular old N690. That's not to say that Drop has the specs wrong; the term was coined by a distributor and in the manner of things apparently became some manner of trademark, so now it's even in the literature and official spec sheets for the knives that the steel is 'N690Co' and that name for that steel is permanently associated with some knives as a result, but it's just a marketing thing.
That is to say, a) Bohler-Uddeholm catalogues and literature do not ever mention 'N690Co' as something they make, although N690 is their trademark and they're the folks making N690, b) it only appears in marketing materials and finished spec sheets for the knives, and c) 'N690Co' branded knives have been lab tested and there's no difference from N690.
The good news is N690's a decent knife steel (one that already has a lot of cobalt in it).

"Well, on account of the fact that the perpetrator seems to be using a knife that needs to be pulled, then flipped open, then flipped about before he can attack his victims, the newspapers have taken to calling this one "The Dork Killer".
Exciting news, group! We’re happy to report that all of the orders have been shipped out and are now on the way to you! Please allow 24-48 hours for tracking to get into the shipper's system and start updating.

The Fox Karambit arrived today. I expected it to be nice, just not THIS nice!! I've owned Syderco knives for years, and have always appreciated their quality. FOX has made me a believer.
