Overview

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.   BACK STORY  In short, we love knives, and we love making knives for you. we always want to create fun, unique, and functional knives for you. Through our daily discussions and interactions with Vosteedians, we got the idea that you want a knife that is:  A pivot with DOUBLE functions, Pivot = Button A knife with a NEW lock mechanism A knife with tons of FUN factors A knife with a COMFORTABLE design A knife with a SECURED lock-up After almost 27 months of hard-working, head-scratching, coffee, and beers, the Ankylo is finally ready to roam on the knife horizon!
