The A2801 pairs a distinctive Shilin cutter blade profile with a Vanchor lock mechanism, offering multiple deployment options through thumb stud, front flipper, and back flipper. At 7.07 inches overall and 3.58 ounces, this is a substantial mid-size folder that favors users who want control and deliberate action over speed. The flat-ground 2.90-inch blade and non-reversible stainless steel clip position it as a practical workhorse rather than a refined pocket carry piece. Vanchor lock strength combined with a properly dimensioned blade (0.118 inches thick) makes this worth considering if you prioritize robust lock geometry and a cutting geometry built for real use.
