Hey guys lighten up.
I started this thread to offer something interesting. Something to think about and analyze and compare to other anchors. Too many people here think everything is an debate over what’s the best thing to buy. As if there is a best thing that will fit for everybody. And “I’ve got the best” just starts arguments.

Re anchors there’s “will it fit nicely on my bow” or “will it work on my rocky bottom” ..... things that are unique often swing the purchase of anchors and other products.

So what do you see as a plus or minus in this interesting new anchor? Something that hasn’t been mentioned is that the roll bar on the Knox is further fwd possibly further than any other RB anchor. For example the Rocna’s RB is well aft. Several inches difference. Food for thought?

PS,
One of the guys on FB just said “I have anchored many many times with both Rocna and Knox anchors,I can not tell the difference between them. Both are fantastic and a million light years away from the CQRs of yesterday”
