About Otter Messer:

There have been cutlers (knifemakers) in Solingen since before the fifteenth century and the City is famous for its knives.

When Solingen is mentioned anywhere in the world the automatic reaction is still 'Steel' and 'Cutlery'.

Knife Description:
 
Mercator Knives manufactured in Solingen, Germany by Otter Messer are mainstay in tool boxes, fishing boxes, kitchen drawers and backpacks. It is an ideal knife for the hunter, fisherman or outdoorsman.
 
...Their low price, slim design and durability make them an easy choice for a good solid Utilitarian knife. But there is an extra sentimental aspect to them for many people that make them a little more special than your basic knife.

For many of us our first knife was a Mercator K55 Cat Knife. Many were carried, kicked around, thrown at trees, made into spears and sometimes lost by young boys.

It is difficult to find a better knife for the price than a Mercator knife.
 
The Mercator and OTTER Knife, these two terms are closely connected. Now there is also a knife which shows this connection. We have reissued the Mercator in its historical form. Instead of the classic black steel case, the handle is now made of Brass. The noble appearance of the metal is completed by the embossed OTTER. Despite its elegant appearance, this Mercator knife also has the usual features. It is slim, functional and reliable. This model is the small, non-lockable brass knife.
 
The Small Mercator is a smaller model which comes with a 8 cm Blade forged from 1.4034 Stainless Steel to a Rockwell Hardness of 54 RcH. The blade is very sharp and is easy to sharpen when it becomes necessary.

The Mercator is very thin and its 6mm thickness allows it to slip into your pocket with ease. Its varnished Brass Handle with Lanyard Loop will go through time without getting damaged as so often happens with wooden handle knifes.

Handmade in Solingen, Germany by Otter Messer.
 
Note: The Small Mercator is a Slipjoint and does not have a Lock.
