Jens Ansø Casino grey with Timascus Backspacer and clip
Casino Royale
With the Monte Carlo, Jens Ansø has already created a true EDC classic - now the new model Casino has followed.
The ingenuity of the Monte Carlo ( lovingly called "Monty" by us) lies on the one hand in its modern and unpretentious appearance, the non-existent locking mechanism and the resulting legal carry of the knife in public.
With the Casino, Ansø once again uses the construction with the two locking springs embedded in the handle scales, which hold the blade but do not lock it. This time, however, the look is completely different from the Monte Carlo. Where the Monte Carlo had a cool, industrial charm, the Casino appears much smoother and more streamlined.
The handle of the casino, made of Titanium, appears a little more elegant and round due to its curved shape.
The blade is also clearly different from that of the Monte Carlos. The flat grind ensures optimal cutting performance and the finely tapered tip allows even the most precise cutting work. As with all Ansø knives, the Casino uses RWL-34 steel produced by Damasteel in Sweden, which was invented especially for the knifemaking legend Bob Loveless. This alloy is wonderfully suited for blade production, because on the one hand it is very resistant against rust, but on the other hand it brings great edge retention.
Another innovation compared to the Monte Carlo is the pocket clip. The clip of the casino is less high and therefore allows a deep carry of the knife.
Each Anso knife comes with a leather pouch, handmade bei Jens in his workshop.
