A Guide to GiantMouse Knives
Posted by HH on 30th Mar 2023
Created in 2015 by Jens Ansø, Jesper Voxnaes and Jim Wirth, GiantMouse Knives produce amazing knife designs. Boasting the highest possible production quality at a fair price, they are one of the most interesting brands around. Hugely in with its community of customers, GiantMouse are masters of their craft.
The founders often look for inspiration for their model names by thinking about their favourite bars around the world. We certainly approve of that!
Here’s your essential guide to some of the amazing designs available from this great brand.
GiantMouse ACE Nibbler Aluminium
The GiantMouse ACE Nibbler is a small and efficient folder that works well as an EDC in small spaces and situations. This is the smallest GiantMouse folder to date. However, despite its size it still ticks all of the boxes you'd expect from a Vox and Ansø design.
The Nibbler is based on the fictional character Nibbles "Tuffy" mouse from the popular Tom and Jerry cartoon series. Nibbles is small, but mighty, just like the GiantMouse ACE Nibbler. A small folder that punches above its weight.
This model has an N690 stainless steel blade and an aluminium handle available in red, green, or blue. A true stainless steel, N690, is premium steel that offers a superb balance between toughness, edge retention but is also relatively easy to sharpen. It is certainly a fantastic steel for this tactile folder. The Nibbler is available in Titanium, Micarta and three choices of Aluminium (Red, green and blue)
GiantMouse Grand Green Micarta M390
The GiantMouse Grand Green Micarta M390 is a fantastic folder in the GiantMouse range. A stylish design with an even more stylish appearance and finish. It's the type of folder that checks all the boxes:
- Excellent materials
- Superb ergonomics
- Premium fit and finish
- Steel of exceptional quality
- Carries well
- A stunning appearance
This latest ACE Grand knife features green Canvas Micarta scales. It also has a gorgeous M390 steel blade with a thumb "cut-out" for one-handed opening.
The M390 steel blade was created to be ideal for all-purpose use. It has a strong but effective Saber Flat Grind, and the pronounced swedge provides a fine point without sacrificing strength at the tip. Handle available in red, green, or blue.
Jens and Jesper set out to create the GM5 as their "magnum opus" - one of their most unique GiantMouse folders to date.
The Elmax steel blade was designed to be ideal for all-around use, and it was retained in the GM5. A high Saber Flat Grind makes it a powerful but efficient slicer, and the pronounced swedge provides a fine point for penetration without sacrificing strength at the tip.
GiantMouse created this new variation of the ever popular GMF1 with 5mm BÖHLER M390 STEEL and a satin finish to create a beefy little utility fixed blade that will address any cutting task that comes your way.
Three separate areas of jimping ensure a solid grip no matter what your chore. The rounded spine and beautifully chamfered holes in the handle add elegance to a cutting tool that is otherwise extremely functional. Each GMF1-FS comes with a handmade Italian black leather sheath designed by Ansø and Vox specifically for this knife
GiantMouse Grand Red Micarta Blackwash
This latest ACE Grand knife features Red Canvas Micarta scales and an M390 steel blade with a black PVD stonewashed finish.
The M390 steel blade was created to be ideal for all-purpose use. It has a strong but effective Saber Flat Grind, and the pronounced swedge provides a fine point without sacrificing strength at the tip.
Meet the Giant Mouse Clyde...named after the Giant Mouse guys' favourite watering hole in Portland, "The Clyde Common," which is located at the ACE Hotel in the Pearl District.
The brass Clyde has an Elmax steel blade that is slim, pointy, and slightly upswept. The handle appears smaller than it is, and the knife's ergonomics may surprise you given its simple lines.
Ever the innovators, GiantMouse used 5mm BÖHLER M390 STEEL for this new variation of the always popular GMF1, and have given it a dark PVD stonewash treatment. This has created a super utility fixed blade that will give you the means to complete your jobs quickly.
With all of the great design points that you will see in the satin version, the PVD stonewash gives this superb fixed blade a great look. This GMF1-F-PVD also comes with a handmade Italian leather sheath to give a classic way of carry and storage.
