BAN TANG x BLACK SCOUT — Fruit Knife
Fruit Knife in Name. Fighter by Nature.
The Fruit Knife was never meant to stay in the kitchen. This reverse-edge blade was born from a collaboration between Ban Tang and Black Scout Survival, and it walks the line between silent utility and raw violence.
Disguised under the label of a “fruit knife,” this blade is purpose-built for concealment, fast deployment, and close-quarters domination. It’s the knife you carry when you want capability without the questions.

WHY IT EXISTS:
Because real warriors don’t carry flashy blades—they carry quiet weapons with a purpose. The Civilized Savage blends concealment with combat efficiency. Reverse-edge. Razor-thin. Brutally effective.
This is the gentleman’s answer to violence. Hidden in plain sight. Ready when it’s time to cut your way out.
