Otter Mercator German Folding Knife - 9cm - Red (Carbon Steel)
Legendary in its quality performance & reliability for over 100 years.
As it is almost indestructible, the Mercator knife was passed on from generation to generation. It's flat, light, compact and exceptional at holding an edge. This is a definitive pocket knife with a proven track record and quality build. Being only 6mm wide with an added stainless steel clip, this knife will fit into your pockets easily. Making this an easy choice for a good solid Utilitarian knife.
But there is an extra sentimental aspect to them for many people that makes them a little more special than your basic knife. (See its history below)
HISTORY: The Mercator knife, originating in Solingen, has remained virtually unchanged for well over 100 years. Initially crafted by the "Mercator" Indiawerk Heinrich Kaufmann & Söhne, it gained favor with Kaiser Wilhelm's army despite not being designed for military use, earning it the moniker "Kaiser Wilhelm Messer." These knives became popular in the NZ from pockets of soldiers returning from Europe after WWII. Known for its durability, it has been passed down through generations. Since 1995, OTTER-Messer has continued its production in Solingen, maintaining its original shape and qualities: reliability, sturdiness, and practicality.
