Traditional knife

If there is one item that has found its way into our pockets as a matter of course for generations, it is the pocket knife. Our grandfathers had one and even our grandmothers often carried a small knife somewhere in the depths of their handbag. Often these everyday companions were then passed on to the children and so it can happen that a pocket knife lingers perhaps already in the third generation in your pocket.

With the new Farley Slipjoint GiantMouse bow to exactly this kind of pocket knife – and yet create something new!

The shape of the knife is on the one hand oriented to the elegance of French or Italian folders, on the other hand you will find a certain similarity to Jens Ansos Casino. The rounded back spring merges seamlessly into the likewise rounded blade back and offers an impressive holding power that is noticeably above that of a Victorinox Alox. While the blade is made from Böhler’s popular M390 steel with a belt satin finish, you have a choice of brass or micarta (which is backed with steel liners) for the handle scales. A real highlight is the impressive Walk &Talk: the rich “clack” when opening the knife is what makes knife hearts beat faster. So that the cutting edge of the Farley does not accidentally hit you on the back spring when closing, GiantMouse have installed a stoppin here, on which the blade root finds a defined stop. The stop at 90 degrees of the blade path also ensures that the knife does not accidentally flap on your fingers during work.

To make the knife completely left-handed friendly, not only the wire clip is convertible – you will also find the milled nail cut on the blade on both sides. By the way, the Farley is manufactured by Bestech in China. Here, the manufacturer proves that it rightly belongs to the big premium companies that build knives on a breathtaking level. Don’t be fooled: even though the GiantMouse Farley makes an elegant appearance, it is, as always, a real workhorse with which you can definitely do some carving.

That leaves the name: as you know, each of the knives is named after a place important to the GiantMouse team. Imagine a bar at the foot of the Golden Gate Bridge. The fog is slowly rising over the water, creating that very special atmosphere in the setting sun. You have a table right by the window and just at this moment fresh oysters are brought to your place. In addition, there is a cool craft beer and in the background plays that surf band that you liked so much last year. Evenings like this are exactly why you keep booking a table at Farley.
