SHOP CASE KNIVESThe ANV Knives A100 A-Lock Folding Knife in Blue GRN brings together advanced materials, dependable engineering, and a bold, practical aesthetic built for real-world use. Designed for users who expect their gear to work as hard as they do, this folder strikes a balance between cutting performance, lightweight carry, and rugged construction. At its core is a 3.5-inch CPM Magnacut drop point blade, one of the most innovative stainless tool steels available today. Magnacut was formulated to provide exceptional toughness without sacrificing hardness or corrosion resistance, eliminating chromium carbides during heat treatment to reduce brittleness and improve overall resilience. Paired with a black DLC finish, the blade gains an additional layer of protection and a non-reflective surface ideal for field use.
Opening the blade is fast and intuitive thanks to the black thumb stud, which incorporates ANV’s Lumidot—an integrated glow-in-the-dark element that offers visibility in low-light environments without adding complexity. Whether you’re working at night or navigating a dim campsite, the Lumidot ensures you can locate the deployment point quickly and confidently. Once open, the blade is secured by ANV’s durable sliding A-Lock mechanism. Built for reliability under repeated use, this lock delivers solid, stable engagement that won’t slip or weaken over time, giving you the confidence you need for demanding cutting tasks.
The handle is constructed from Blue Glass-Reinforced Nylon, providing strength and impact resistance at a fraction of the weight of metal alternatives. GRN delivers a textured, dependable grip that stays comfortable even during extended use, and the bold blue color provides a distinctive appearance without compromising practicality. At only 2.6 ounces and 4.75 inches closed, the A100 is easy to carry daily without adding bulk or drag in your pocket. A tip-up wire pocket clip completes the design, offering ambidextrous-friendly carry and a secure hold that stays unobtrusive and lightweight.
With an overall length of 8.25 inches when open, the ANV A100 maintains a confident presence in hand while still folding down into a compact, streamlined form. Every component reflects ANV’s commitment to craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and balanced performance—making this knife an excellent choice for everyday carry, field work, or any task that demands reliability.
