Thought I’d share a morning view….

Vosteed Psyop - Copper Fat Carbon

Ordered the new Zander off the Vosteed website last Tuesday morning when it came out. Said it would arrive Monday the 29th. Awesome. Coming USPS, it first started in New Jersey, then to Indy (I live just west of here, near Terre Haute), THEN to Wichita, Kansas!?!?? 9.5 hours further west than the package needed to go?!? WHY???

Now it says, after a stop in Missouri, that its making its way to its next destination... where THAT destination is no one knows! 🤬👎❌️❌️❌️

I noticed something on my Ankylo and was wondering if it is normal :

When I press the button of the vanchor lock, the first 1 or 2 mm it releases the blade but not entirely, the tip drops 5mm or so, and then I have to press the button further down to fully release the blade so it closes entirely.

When the blade is in the in-between position I can easily close it manually without pressing the button, it's like the lock is disengaged and the blade is only held in place by the detent ball.

This result in a weird feeling when closing the blade as I'd doesn't closes smoothly and I have to press the button down all the way to close the blade and it often bounces back.

Is this normal and do all the vanchor locks operate the same?

When I see video reviews people seems to just press the button for the blade to drop in the closed position without any difficulty or having to press the button that deep.

I'd be interested in your opinion as it is my first Vanchor lock and I have nothing to compare it to...
