Totally new lock mechanism! - Vosteed Ankylo - Small Details Review - V-Anchor Button Lock EDC Knife

The new V-Anchor lock on the new Ankylo knife from Vosteed is exceptionally cool. Axial button locks are a rare breed, and the V-Anchor's totally novel mechanism makes this the first axial button lock with a strong detent and a robust lock, but that's still incredibly easy to dissassemble and maintain!
