SWISH! OPEN THE JOY!

 

VANCHOR LOCK

The Ankylo is our first knife design featuring the innovative Vanchor lock mechanism. This 2-in-1 system combines a pivot and button, allowing for an effortlessly magical way to close the knife.

The Vanchor lock integrates a magnetic connector and a robust lock plate, working together to ensure both stability and reinforcement. Additionally, the lock's design guarantees that the pivot/button remains recessed, regardless of the lock's engagement, for seamless operation and a sleek appearance.

 

HIGH PERFORMANCE

The Ankylo features a 3.18" 154CM reverse tanto blade and aluminum handle scales. 154CM is well known for its well-balanced composition, ensuring the blade maintains its performance and a sharp edge for an extended period, high performance, and low maintenance, the best of both worlds!

 

ERGONOMIC HANDLE

The Handles are made from 6061 Aerospace Grade Aluminum. They offer a great strength-to-weight ratio, and we did tons of tests to find the most comfortable handle shape for you. To take the ergonomics to the next level, all corners of the handle are double CNC chamfered.

 

REVERSIBLE CLIP

A reversible clip allows both right-handed and left-handed users to enjoy the knife. It also comes with a filler tap that can cover the non-clip side. This added feature enhances the aesthetics and acts as a protective barrier against dirt, dust, or other debris.

Great knife!

This thing is pleasantly much more solid than I anticipated. It’s definitely a tank! While I originally was interested for the fidget factor (which it certainly is), I was pleasantly surprised at the fact that it feels very robust. All while feeling very nice in the pocket. I’m even more pleased than I was expecting. Excellent fit/finish, and hair-shaving sharp out of the box. Well worth every penny. Definitely 5 of 5 stars.

Well made knife

As a collector of unique locking systems I had to give this one a try. Love the pivot lock and overall feel of this one. Drag texture and ergos are also very well done.

Disappointing

Wow, huge vosteed fanboy but this knife was overhyped on youtube. I have 6 vosteeds and this one has the worst action despite costing more than most. That smooth ball bearing feeling is not there at all on this one, it feels gritty. And youve really got to get the timing right to close it properly. Half the time ypu have to push it closed. Save your money, buy a raccoon.

Fidgeting fans, Do Yourself a Favor and Buy the Ankylo!

Multiple ways to open the blade, innovative locking mechanism, and smooth open/shut action. The Ankylo won’t win any awards for being the thinnest knife. Its design puts it in a more of a heavy user category. Either way, I am still loving it.
