The February 2006 issue of Practical Sailor featured "Anchors for 
Muck, for Under 200 Bucks",  testing 17 anchors under $200 in soft, 
muddy bottom.

I don't have that issue, but the website blurbs says "In soft mud, 
the low-priced Lewmar Claw stands out in short- and long-scope 
testing".  For $10 you can buy the entire article for immediate 
download as a PDF -
