Auction!!






I just finished this rather special Funk folder today.

The knife features a 3 1/3" blade of .160" thick RWL-34 with a deep hollow grind and a nice swedge on the back. Instead of the original Spyderco hole this knife was designed with I made a double thumbstud out of titanium. Has checkering on the tops for a nice grippy feel. The single sided frame is made from .140" 6Al4V titanium and the scale is made out of black/orange G10 with my tight crop circle texture. Deep beadblasted! Handmade titanium standoffs and an engraved pocketclip. All parts except the scale has been stonewashed.

To try something new I will sell this via auction. The auction will be open for 24 hours from posting. To place a bid please email me your bid. I will update the current bid as often as possible. To avoid any last minutte sniping the auction will run 15 mins after the last bid. The winning bidder will pay shipping of $30 anywhere in the world. Bidders from Europe please contact me before bidding.

Lets start the bids with $600

Auction is closed with the winning bid being $1000!

2010 - Testlab Outbreak - V. 623-62 - Anso available!





Proud to present the first Anso knives of 2010....Testlab Outbreak v. 623-62

I think this design is one of if not the coolest Testlab Outbreak project I have ever done....I have a very great feeling about this design and think it is a great start of a new millinium!!

As usual 5 will be made of this design in the test phase and the 3 shown here are available via lottery.

Specs of the folders: 3 1/2" blade in .200" RWL-34, 7 3/4" overall... .140" titanium frame. blade and frame beadblasted and stonewashed. All blades are assymetrically ground...high hollow on one side and medium high hollow with swedge grind.

These all feature a variant of my new "wafle" texture on G10. The blades are all etched with "Testlab Outbreak" The mark is etched deep, crisp and dark....just the way I like it...

I will because of the overwhelming interest be selling these via a lottery. To enter the lottery for a chance to buy one of these knives please read carefully:

Both knives are priced at $850 each

Email me at outbreak@ansoknives.com and write "Available Outbreaks January 2010" in the subject. In the email you will write down which of these 3 your interested in. after 24 hours I will assign everyone who has contacted me with a "lucky number" for each of the knives he/she is interested in and let a random number generator pick the "winners". If you are only interested in 1 of these you get one chance...if your interested in two you get two chances etc. Hope this makes sence....BUT please specify which your interested in or if your interested in them all...!!
