Α100
Lightweight GRN handles with 3D profile. Blade with deep cryogenic treatment. Fully ambidextrous design. All these features make the A100 the perfect EDC (Everyday Carry) for your daily adventures.
We understand that for an EDC knife to be truly great, it must combine several key features. It must be light, comfortable to use, reliable and extremely attractive both in appearance and function. We think the A100 combines all of these perfectly. GRN handles with 3D profiles and curves are extremely light, durable and very comfortable to use. The A100's blade is made from deep cryogenically treated Elmax super clean powder steel, giving it excellent edge retention while maintaining superior corrosion and wear resistance. The fully ambidextrous A LOCK locking system secures the entire construction and ensures a safe and very pleasant user experience. The A100 also features a contrasting red floating backspacer that acts as a hand rest as well as a lanyard attachment point.
The Elmax cryogenically treated powder steel blade gives this ultralight EDC knife incredible performance and durability. The front of the blade is equipped with today's classic ANV svedge grind, and its surface is protected by an extremely durable DLC coating.
The ANV button, suitable for both right- and left-handers, combines the advantages of a thumb stud with the convenience of a hole in the blade. The center of the opening button is coated with ANV Lumidot made of Swiss superluminova. 
The durable and smooth A-lock locking system combines ambidextrous operation with security. It can be operated with gloves and is marked with a red contrast marker. Thanks to the secure A lock system, you will never doubt your A100.
The highly durable GRN polymer used for the firearm frames gives the A100's grips the strength they need while keeping the weight extremely low. The entire knife weighs only 72g. The surface of the handle is textured with grooves, which provides a secure grip, looks great and does not interfere with pocket insertion. Thanks to the overall 3D profile, the handle of the A100 fits perfectly in the hand and creates a very low profile.
At the back of the handle, the knife is held by an extremely light and very durable GRN polymer floating backspacer, which improves overall ergonomics and gives the build a dynamic look. The end of the backspacer is equipped with a lanyard hole, which is elegantly hidden between the handles.
Short, elegant, safe, placed on both sides. Our deep pocket clip is a celebration of discretion and preparedness. Thanks to its pen-like appearance, your A100 will not attract unwanted attention, but at the same time it will always be ready.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Our knives are guaranteed for life. However, in order for your knife to serve you for many years, you need to take care of it properly.
If you follow the instructions below, your ACTA NON VERBA knife will last a lifetime. However, if you can, have your knife maintained and sharpened by an expert.
Use sharpeners from our range. You can also use sanding tape, flat sanding stone with appropriate grit size for both dry and underwater sanding. Flats, rods, discs, sleeves or "V" sharpeners. Use leather traction bands for perfect sharpening.
When sharpening, use the accessories and oils recommended by the manufacturer of the sharpening tools.
After each use, clean the knife with a damp cloth. In case of heavy contamination of the knife or sheath (e.g. with blood, dust, sand, etc.), use a jet of running water. Then wipe it well with a dry cloth and lubricate all parts. It is recommended to disassemble, dry and lubricate the folding knives after cleaning with water.
Never use chemical cleaners, fuels or detergents containing abrasives.
Do not wash in the dishwasher!
If the Kydex holster is dirty with blood, dust, sand, etc., use a running water jet. For such cases, the Kydex holster is equipped with a cleaning hole.
The Kydex sheath can be treated with knife maintenance oil or silicone oil.
Leather cases simply treat them with a suitable skin care lotion containing beeswax.
For long-term storage, use the original ANV box in which you purchased the knife. Lubricate the knife well before storing it and store it in a dry place at room temperature.
Do not wash the knife or sheath in the dishwasher.
Do not use the knife as a screwdriver.
Do not cut, drill or cut hard materials such as metals, stones, hardwood, hard plastics, glass, composites, etc.
Avoid contact between the knife and salt water (does not apply to models suitable for diving and knives marked "Salt Water Resistant").
All ACTA NON VERBA knives are extremely sharp. Be careful when unpacking and handling the knife. Risk of injury!
If you choose to wear a knife around your neck, use only the ANV safety chain. Do not use ropes, closed Paracords, or other solid materials to hang the knife around your neck. Keep your knife away from children. A knife is a weapon. Handle it accordingly.
When traveling with your knife, read the laws of your destination. Some knife designs (one-handed opening) or some dimensions (blade length, overall length) may be restricted or prohibited by local law.
