Has anyone exerience with a Knox Anchor?
We are currently taking one out for a cruise. First attempt in hard sand: sets and holds well.

That's an odd one! What's the split at the front all about? Whereas SPADE has a lead weight right there... Be interesting to see how you fare with it. What weight is it (and what make/size anchor did you take off?)

We're using a SPADE right now - and it's good, though doesn't set nearly as easily as our Manson Supreme. I find that  if I try to set it with much less than 5:1 scope, I won't get a good set - whereas the Manson would have dug itself in at 2 or 3:1. The SPADE certainly does fit the bow more easily though!
