Particularly striking: the unusual “Bowie” blade, which combines a striking look with high functionality. The sophisticated design is complemented by an unconventionally shaped bolster that gives the knife a modern touch. Incidentally, the name “Ranger” comes from an Army Ranger - a good friend of Jared's who saw the first prototype.  Are you looking for a knife with character that perfectly combines tradition and modernity? The Tactile Knife Ranger brings a classic slipjoint feel with high-precision workmanship and a unique design to your pocket - a stylish companion for real knife fans.

Knife Lounge Exclusive Full Titanium · Jens Anso Design · M390 The Cox is not a new pocket knife. It's an old one we couldn't leave alone – because titanium, M390 and Anso's design language simply fit together too well to leave it at that. Together with Böker we have relaunched one of Anso's oldest designs. Not because it needed a reason. But because this version was always missing. Titanium Handle. Those who know the Cox know it in G10, Micarta or wood. Solid materials – but this version plays in a different league. Titanium is light, refined and built to last. The full titanium handle in stonewash finish, paired with the equally stonewashed blade, creates a harmonious EDC setup. Signs of use become patina, not damage. The stonewash finish is created in a tumbler with ceramic stones or abrasive media that work the knife for hours – the result is a matte, lightly textured surface that keeps looking good. Bronze-anodized hardware and a matching anodized clip in tip-up position add a warm contrast to the stonewash titanium. M390 Blade. M390 is one of the most popular steels in the premium segment – and for good reason. Exceptional edge retention, excellent corrosion resistance, a hardness that simply performs in everyday use. Combined with Anso's characteristic blade geometry, the result is a tool that convinces both functionally and aesthetically. The Cox goes everywhere. Two-handed opening and framelock keep it legal for everyday carry – the tip-up clip makes sure it stays exactly where it belongs. Includes Böker Plus Pouch. Jens Anso – Danish Design with a Signature. Anso is an industrial designer, knife maker and one of the most influential knife designers in the world. From his studio in rural Jutland come designs that combine Scandinavian minimalism with Japanese precision – functional down to the last detail, never without reason. Those who know GiantMouse: Anso co-founded it in 2015. Exclusive to Knife Lounge. This Cox is not available just anywhere. For collectors who don't compromise on materials. For everyone looking for a premium EDC knife and who knows what M390 and titanium mean. For everyone who knows Anso's work – and has been waiting for this one. Exclusive. The Cox as it always should have been.

Sometimes it’s the simple things that bring us the most joy. A piece of bread, some cheese, an apple – and a knife that fits the moment. The Böker Plus Rusticus is exactly that kind of knife. No show-off, no gimmicks – just a companion that belongs in every pocket. The highlight is the handle – what we lovingly call the “Holzi-Gral.” Why? Because it’s crafted in true wood integral construction. That means: no steel frame, no handle scales – just a single solid block of heat-treated beech wood. It feels warm in the hand, has that rustic, honest character, and instantly brings back memories of the simple pocketknives from the past. Supporting this design is a brass liner, which locks the blade securely and adds a subtle vintage shimmer. The slim drop point blade, made from stainless 420 steel, cuts cleanly through an apple on your picnic blanket or slices cheese on a hiking trip. At only 34 grams, it’s so light you’ll almost forget it’s there – until the moment you need it. And that’s exactly why the Rusticus is a true standard EDC: it just works. Simple, reliable, and without fuss. The Rusticus isn’t a knife for display cases. It’s a knife for real life – for your everyday, your picnic, your small adventures. And thanks to its wood integral construction, it’s our very own Holzi-Gral – a little piece of nostalgia with a modern twist.

Classic Nordic Craftsmanship in the Shank Sharpener’s Union Edition The Jutland Slipjoint is a tribute to the Danish peninsula of Jutland – the home of Jens Anso and Jesper Voxnaes. Here, between the rough North Sea, endless dunes, and small quiet towns, groundedness meets adventurous spirit. This blend also defines the design of the Jutland: classic, robust, yet modern – a knife with a Nordic soul, built for those who value precision and craftsmanship. In the exclusive Shank Sharpener’s Union Edition, the Jutland represents more than just functionality. It is a symbol of community, passion, and the art of sharpening – forged for those who continually refine their craft. Featuring milled brass handle scales, a PVD-coated CPM-S90V blade, and matching hardware, this version combines character, stability, and style. Manufactured in Maniago, Italy, every detail stands for uncompromising European quality. The 6.7 cm slipjoint blade opens via a classic nail nick – smooth, precise, and without a lock, yet offering maximum control. The knife remains 42a-compliant, making it perfect for everyday use – whether in the workshop, on a tour, or as part of your urban EDC setup. Each piece of the SSU Edition is individually numbered, strictly limited to just 200 units worldwide – a true collector’s rarity and a must-have for Union members. Once these 200 knives are gone, the series will be history. So: If you want to be part of the Union – grab yours before it becomes history.

Traditional Pocket Knife – Now Available with Titanium Scales If there’s one object that has naturally found its way into our pockets for generations, it’s the pocket knife. Our grandfathers had one, and even our grandmothers often carried a small knife somewhere in the depths of their handbags. These everyday companions were often passed down from hand to hand – from generation to generation. Maybe there’s still a piece of that tradition in your pocket today. With the Farley Slipjoint, GiantMouse pay homage to exactly that kind of pocket knife – while creating something entirely new. For the first time, the Farley appears in a version with titanium handle scales. The lightweight, durable material gives the knife not only an elegant feel but also an impressive balance of refinement and toughness. The lines remain unmistakably classic: Inspired by the elegance of French and Italian folders, the design also recalls Jens Ansø’s iconic Casino. The rounded backspring flows seamlessly into the equally smooth spine of the blade – a detail that convinces both visually and functionally. The Farley closes firmly, noticeably stronger than a Victorinox Alox, and delights with its precise walk and talk – that satisfying “click” knife enthusiasts instantly recognize. To protect the edge when closing, GiantMouse has integrated a stop pin that provides a defined blade stop. The 90° stop adds extra safety, ensuring the knife doesn’t close unintentionally while in use. The Farley is manufactured by Bestech in China – a company that has long joined the premium league, once again proving that flawless craftsmanship and attention to detail are no coincidence. Despite its refined appearance, the Farley remains a true workhorse – built for cutting, carving, and everyday carry. And then there’s the name: Farley – a bar at the foot of the Golden Gate Bridge. Fog drifts over the water, the sun sets, oysters are served, and a surf band plays in the background. A place that inspires, connecting emotion and craftsmanship – just like this knife.

GiantMouse Farley V2 – the classic slipjoint reimagined If you liked the original Farley, you’re going to love the new V2 version. GiantMouse hasn’t reinvented the classic Farley Slipjoint – but they’ve refined it in all the right places. Where the first version impressed with its clean elegance and titanium handle scales, the Farley V2 brings a touch more vintage charm: the distinctive bolsters give the knife a classic face and create a smooth transition to the handle scales. You can choose between titanium bolsters with carbon fiber scales – lightweight, modern, and technical – or a warm combination of brass bolsters and micarta scales that develop more character with every use. The blade once again features Elmax steel – a high-performance steel known for its exceptional sharpness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. Despite the visual updates, what makes the Farley special remains unchanged: its clean lines, the satisfying “click” when it opens, and the perfect balance between elegance and everyday usability. It’s still the knife you’ll want to carry every day – just with a touch more retro flair.

Tactile Knife Bexar – Knife Lounge Exclusive First things first, a quick language lesson: Bexar is pronounced “Bear” – just like the series The Bear or Bexar County near San Antonio, Texas.

Our Knife Lounge Exclusive Edition brings fresh green into play: Micarta handle scales that not only look great but also feel even better over time.

As a subtle yet striking detail, the grooves on the pivot screw run in a circular pattern, creating a stylish contrast. The blade is made from CPM Magnacut – one of the most exciting steels on the market today. Corrosion-resistant, edge-retaining, and built for everyday slicing performance, it handles daily tasks with ease. With an overall length of 17.1 cm and a slim 2 mm blade stock, the Bexar isn’t bulky – it’s a refined gentleman’s folder in an urban suit.

Böker Coffin – Now with extra shine! Hand-polished in our own workshop – each version is therefore something very special and clearly stands out from the factory version. The result: a finish that is almost translucent and reminiscent of liquid honey.

Outdoor knife CPM3V steel blade Droppoint blade handle made of TPE (low heat conductivity) including high quality Kydex Bronco The new Böker Bronco is THE price/performance hit when it comes to a super sturdy, rather compact outdoor knife. This knife is made of the ultra-tough but very cutting CPM 3V steel, which is one of the most popular alloys when the blade must withstand even the roughest loads.Nevertheless, the blade has been ground to such a thinness that, in addition to stability, it also offers excellent cutting properties. An extremely sharp 90-degree angle has been ground into the front part of the blade spine, allowing you to easily scratch a fire steel. For the handle, Böker have opted for an injected TPE handle, which is simply fabulous in the hand and thanks to its texture is still safe to grip even with wet hands. Thanks to the comparatively low weight, the Böker Bronco is an all-around perfect companion in the forest or on a hike. Included is a kydex sheath, including a clip. The knife is of course manufactured entirely in Böker's factory in Solingen.

Five point nine centimeters – and that’s all you need. The Böker Plus Five Point Nine is a fixed blade built for EDC: small enough to never look aggressive, yet big enough to handle nearly all of your daily tasks. The drop point blade, made from stainless 440C with a rugged stonewash finish, is tough, reliable, and easy to maintain. On paper, 5.9 cm might sound compact – but in use, it easily tackles boxes, fruit, bread, or quick camp chores. The handle scales are crafted from textured brown Micarta, sitting solidly in the hand. Full-tang construction and jimping provide security and stability, while the overall weight of just 80 grams keeps it light and unobtrusive. And when it comes to carry, you decide: either ride it clean in the fitted Kydex sheath, or use the included clip to carry it directly in your pocket – whichever fits your setup best. Designed by Thomas Krug (M.B.F. Messer), the Five Point Nine is stripped down to the essentials: honest design, no gimmicks. For us, it’s a true price-to-performance champion among compact fixed blades – a knife that deserves a spot in every EDC rotation.

“Black Micarta & Steel Bolsters” Some knives are just tools. Others tell stories. This one tells the story of salty sea air, calloused hands, and a family-run company in Solingen that’s been crafting knives since 1840 – long before anyone ever called it “EDC.” The anchor knife is a true classic. Originally designed as a sailor’s knife, it once belonged on every ship right alongside the logbook and a bottle of rum. Tough, dependable, and ready to cut through any rope – no matter the wind force. And now, this traditional knife is entering its next chapter. Outfitted with elegant anthracite Micarta scales and bead-blasted steel bolsters, this old salt becomes a stylish companion for everyday use. The subtle contrast between the dark Micarta and the satin-gray steel brings a touch of modern clarity to the knife’s maritime soul. Its characteristic sheepfoot blade – available in either stainless 1.4034 or classic C75 carbon steel – is perfect for controlled slicing and shines with its clean, functional design. The slipjoint mechanism offers reliable handling without a lock, making it fully §42a-compliant in Germany. And of course, it’s still made in Solingen – by Otter Messer, where real craftsmanship lives on. This knife doesn’t shout. It quietly nods to the past – reimagined for the present. It feels great in the hand, slips easily into your pocket, and only gets better with time. The Knife Lounge Exclusive Anchor Knife “Black Micarta & Steel Bolsters” isn’t mass-produced. It’s made in small, carefully crafted batches – with the love and attention to detail you’d expect from Otter.
