Acta Non Verba Knives A400 Lockback Folding Knife - 3.90" Sleipner Tool Steel DLC Black Dagger Blade - Coyote Brown G-10 Handles with LumiDot High-Visibility Inlay (ANVA400-002)
Product Description
Delivering modern European tactical engineering and aggressive symmetrical geometry, the Acta Non Verba (ANV) A400 (ANVA400-002 / 8594194206116) stands as an overbuilt, full-sized daily carry folder. Designed and precision-crafted in the Czech Republic, the A400 modernizes classic tactical dagger silhouettes with high-grade tool steel metallurgy, ambidextrous deployment, and ANV's signature Swiss Super-LumiNova indexing technology.
The business end of the A400 features a 3.90-inch symmetrical dagger-style blade forged from premium Swedish Uddeholm Sleipner tool steel. Heat-treated to an extreme 60 HRC, Sleipner provides exceptional impact toughness, micro-grain wear resistance, and high edge retention that outclasses traditional D2 steel. Coated in a non-reflective black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) finish, the single-edge plain blade protects against field scratches, wear, and corrosion. The blade features ANV's innovative dual flipper guards equipped with a built-in Swiss Super-LumiNova LumiDot inlay, providing a bright, self-luminous locator mark in zero-light or low-light tactical environments.
The handle is constructed from contoured Coyote Brown G-10 scales housing heavy-duty stainless steel liners. The 3D-milled G-10 handle delivers an unshakeable, ergonomic purchase that resists water, oils, and cold weather. Driven by an ambidextrous, rock-solid rear lockback mechanism, the blade locks open with zero blade play under heavy duty use. Complete with a reversible wire deep-carry pocket clip configured for discreet tip-up carry, the Czech-made ANV A400 Coyote (EAN 8594194206116) is a primary asset for military personnel, law enforcement, and tactical purists.
*Bench Notes & Field Care Guidance:*
Forged from high-performance Uddeholm Sleipner tool steel and protected by a hard DLC coating, the ANV A400 offers high resistance against field scuffs and surface corrosion. As Sleipner is a high-alloy tool steel rather than a true stainless steel, periodically wipe down the exposed cutting edge with a light pass of synthetic oil to maintain moisture defense. The textured Coyote Brown G-10 handle scales can be easily scrubbed clean with warm water and mild dish soap to remove field grease or dirt buildup.
