ACTA NON VERBA A100 1918 Limited Edition 2026

The foundation of this limited edition remains the proven ANV A100 model, known for its lightweight construction, practical ergonomics, and reliable mechanism. The color scheme has undergone a significant transformation, referencing the Czech national tricolor. White handles made of modern GRN (Glass Reinforced Nylon), reinforced with glass fibers, provide good mechanical resistance and dimensional stability while helping to maintain the very low weight of the knife. Blue-colored screws are complemented by a red rear spacer and a red opening stud. The individual colored elements create an interesting contrast with the black blade without disrupting the functional character of the original model.

The blade made of premium Böhler Elmax powder steel offers an excellent combination of long edge retention, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. This modern stainless steel utilizes a high proportion of chromium along with vanadium and molybdenum, which contribute to the formation of hard carbides and improve cutting properties. Thanks to powder metallurgy, Elmax achieves a finer and more uniform structure than conventional tool steels. The result is an edge that handles everyday cutting of cardboard, plastic packaging, textiles, and other common materials well. The black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) surface treatment creates a hard protective layer with high abrasion resistance and gives the blade a decent technical appearance.

The blade workmanship itself deserves special attention. Laser engraving of the Czech lion, the historical date 28.10.1918, and the inscription "Den vzniku samostatného československého státu" (Day of the birth of the independent Czechoslovak state) gives the knife an unmistakable character. The typography draws inspiration from the contemporary typeface of Národní listy from 1918, thereby connecting modern production with the atmosphere of the period of the republic's founding. Furthermore, each specimen contains an individual marking from 1/100 to 100/100 along with the year 2026. It is this numbering that underscores the collector value of the entire series and distinguishes individual pieces from regular production.

The safe securing of the blade is handled by the ambidextrous A-Lock mechanism, which allows for comfortable manipulation with both the right and left hand. The mechanism uses a transverse sliding locking element and offers intuitive unlocking without the need to place fingers in the path of the folding blade. The opening stud allows for quick one-handed opening, while the deep carry pocket clip ensures discreet and stable carrying deep in the pocket. The total weight of only 72 grams is among the important advantages of the A100 model, especially for all-day EDC carry.

ANV A100 1918 LIMITED 2026 reminds us that freedom and independence are not taken for granted, but are values that deserve attention and responsibility.
