Description

8” FX East/West knife is our most popular shaped blade because it is the most effective knife available for general slicing and chopping of meats, vegetables and fruits. The blade is a chopper and cooks knife combined: the best of the East and the West! Light, sharp, and perfectly balanced.

Hygiene & Durability: Nothing is more hygienic than one seamless piece. With no handle gaps or joins, there's nowhere for germs to hide - making Frir FX one of the easiest knives to keep clean. Frir FX is durable because there are no wood, plastic, rivets or separate pieces that can deteriorate over time.
Comfort and Grip: The vertical ‘microgrooves’ and reverse-wedge shape of the Furi® FX handle actively resists your hand slipping forward, even when wet or oily. The handle wedges into the hand, requiring less ‘squeeze’ to perform repetitive cutting tasks, resulting in less fatigue and hand strain than conventional handles.
High-performance material, blade shapes, cutting edges, balance Furi® FX knives are made from the finest CrMoV German stainless steel alloys and hardened and tempered for maximum edge retention, ease of sharpening, and toughness. The cutting edges of most Furi® FX knives are finished to ‘extreme sharpness’ at the factory by the patented Furi® Tech Edge™ Pro Sharpening System. The large Furi knives are balanced with the new ‘Coppertail’ system (patents pending): a solid copper plug is fused into the end of the handle for easy rebalancing.
The larger knives of the Furi® Pro range are manufactured with the innovative FORGED EXOSKELETON™ method (patents pending). Furitechnics developed this technology to overcome the hygiene and durability problems found in regular plastic/wood handles and fashionable metal-handled knives, and to ensure the Furi® knives used by working chefs are extremely strong and perfectly weighted. Three parts are fused into one seamless piece: instead of traditionally adding handle parts around a forged tang, the FX handle is the tang. When these unique construction features are combined with the patented Furi® handle shape, finest German CrMoV alloy, Coppertail™ rebalancing system, unique blade shapes, and a perfect edge created by Tech Edge™, the result is a new definition of knife performance for chefs and gourmet home cooks.
Coppertail™ rebalancing system. The FX knives all feature a counter-balancing copper insert in the handle. What makes the Furi FX Coppertail different from other knives, is that the copper insert in the handle can be shaved down to reduce the weight of the handle and rebalance the knife over time!
