MERCATOR small

The small knife from the Mercator series has the same properties as its big brother, but it is not lockable. The blade is optionally available in stainless steel or in carbon steel. The robust powder-coated metal handle is available in two colour variations, in the classic black or in blue. Thanks to its flat design, the small Mercator is a handy knife that could fit into pretty much any trouser pocket.

MERCATOR copper

The Mercator is a traditional German pocket knife. With this new copper handle we gave it a new and exclusive look. Although the slim handle and classic blade were not changed. The embossed OTTER logo completes the extraordinary appearance of this knife. The Mercator copper is available with either a carbon or a stainless steel blade. The knife is also equipped with a leather strap to secure it against loss. This is the larger, lockable model. Please note: Since copper is a very soft material, small toolmarks from the manufacturing are hard to avoid. These are not defects, but rather witness to the individuality of the knife Matching Accessories & Recommendations Perfectly matched: as a complement, we recommend our high-quality leather cases and the sturdy knife holster: Leather case 03 Dark brown Black Knife holster 01 Dark brown Black Manufacturer information: OTTER-Messer GmbH • Schwertstraße 35 • 42651 Solingen, Germany Web: www.otter-messer.de • E-Mail: info@otter-messer.de • Phone: +49 212 337829

MERCATOR multi small

Our remake of the popular classic. The new Mercator Multi is much smaller and lighter than its predecessor. With a blade length of 7,5 cm it is a handy every day carrier. Like the bigger version it has a corkscrew. Instead of an awl it has a bottle opener which can also be used as a screwdriver. With this combination the small Mercator Multi is a multifunctional knife for daily routines as well as outdoor activities. The blade steel is either carbon or stainless steel.

MERCATOR copper damascus

Copper and Damascus – this knife will not only make collectors' hearts beat faster. The matt copper and the expressive damascus turn what was once a simple working knife into something very special. The structure of the hand-forged carbon damascus is shown to its best advantage. Our damascus is made in Germany. The Mercator knife with copper and damascus is the same size as the classic, large Mercator and can also be locked in place. The leather strap with copper eyelet is included. We use Damascus blades forged from low-alloy cold work steels (1.2842/1.5634, 75Ni8). The hardness is around 61 Rockwell. Please note that the damascus we use is not stainless.

Belgian whetstones BB 4

Belgian whetstones are used for sharpening the knives. These whetstones consist of a natural stone quarried from the Belgian Ardennes mountains. Their unique consistency makes it possible for us to grind the blades with precision and in a material-friendly way. The lighter layer is used for grinding, the slate layer on the bottom is simply to make the sharpening stone stronger. The Belgian whetstones must be wet before honing. Set the blade onto the stone at a sharp angle and pull it back in circular motions. A natural abrasive paste develops in this process, which sharpens the blade and polishes it finely at the same time. The Belgian whetstone no. 4 is the smaller one of our whetstones.
