The latest in my Testlab Outbreak project... V. 279-47


























































With this project I have been doing some serious experimenting. First of I have changed some of the ways I put my folders together to ensure a stronger and better folder with less chance of problems like ofcenter blades, sticking locks etc...secondly I have been using my CNC to rough out parts plus doing experimental textures....This Outbreak project has taken far longer than any of the previous projects but has been well worth it....I have developed 5 different textures in the process plus produced some of the best functioning folders I have ever made...

As usual 5 have been made of this design in the test phase and 2 of these will be available via lottery. I will be posting a gallery thread with all 5 shortly...

Specs of the folders: 3 1/4" blade in .200" RWL-34, 7 1/2" overall... .156" titanium lock side and handle side. Frame textured, beadblasted, anodized and stonewashed. These all have Spyderco opening holes

All blades have various grinds...both symmetrical and assymetrically...I like !



I will as usualbe selling these 2 via a lottery. To enter the lottery for a chance to buy one of these knives please read carefully:

Pictured below is the 2 available knives....They are each priced at $950 plus shipping. Email me at ansoknives(at)ansoknives.com and write "Available Outbreaks Sept 27th 2011" in the subject. In the email you will write down which of these 2 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...!!

finished this prototype today as my first project after the bladeshow...it was nice to work on something like this to get started again after more than a week out of the shop....turned out really nice in my opinion. The knife is based on the most recent Outbreak. The main difference is the blade features a Spyderco opening hole instead of a thumbstud.

The knife features a 3 1/4" handrubbed blade in .200" RWL-34, 7 3/4" overall... frame made from contoured .140" titanium. All the titanium parts has been beadblasted, anodized, stonewashed and anodized again for a very cool suttle look and feel. The screws and standoffs are heatcolored ...This knife will sell via auction. The auction will be open for 24 hours from posting. (thats Friday the 17th approx 2.00 pm east coast time )To place a bid you can email (info(at)ansoknives.com) me your bid. To avoid any last minutte sniping the auction will run 10 mins after the last bid. (I will close the auction on Saturday the 18th at 2.00 pm East Coast Time or 10 mins after the last bid) The winning bidder will pay shipping of $35 anywhere in the world. Bidders from Europe please contact me before bidding as VAT have to be added to the final bid.

When Luc and I made the Tera project we decided to make one for each of us as well.....this one was the one we made for me...

I hate to sell it but bills have to be paid so this one is now available.

This one features like the other Tera´s double titanium bolsters and have contoured brown canvas micarta scales. The blade is stonewashed and acid etched with Luc´s special viral etch. The titanium parts are anodized and heavily stonewashed for a really distressed look. The blade features a assymetrical grind. A truly one of a kind :)

The price for this one is $900 plus shipping. SOLD

Thanks!
