Wondering about the Mercator?

[ericnpeterson]

I love the Mercator K55, it's an excellent work-knive.
Both, the K55 and Douk Douk I have put through long work days with lots of cutting, and each of
these knives I've found quite comfortable to work with. Never bothered my hands, even with heavy cutting.

I love too the Mercators. And I found my small one better for pocket edcing. It's really a slipjoint and with its 3" blade lenght is really usable!!!

Great little knives. Use mine alot round the house and occasionally take it into work as it's really easy to disinfect.
I notice they do a multi-tool version now.

That small one does look handy. I have never seen it offered for sale here (or maybe I wasn't paying attention).

Your post and the next one prompted me to visit the manufacturer's site, which offers a lot more variations since I last looked several months ago. In addition to the multi-tool, I saw the red handle (missed the green) and the copper handle. While I don't feel a need to own them all, the copper one looked interesting. Although I looked for it, I didn't find your small version there either.

I bought it in a Germany site. If you send me an address I'll tell you where.
