Hi,
The IDN transformation doesn't apply to AXFR nor to zone file flush, the domain
names are always encoded in Punycode (xn--).
You only must ensure that the input zone file doesn't contain Unicode
characters.
If you still have any issues with the zone, please send me the source zone file
for investigation.

`+noidnout` does fix it, but i am not sure i can get knot's axfr to do
that

Okay, this is the zone with a whole bunch of records designed to
stress-test DNS implementations with things which are technically
allowed in DNS at the protocol level but which apps might not handle
well.

Those particular records were added on 2013-04-05 per `git blame`:

so, `noidnout` is not in knot doc html file. clue bat, please.
