Detailed product description
GiantMouse ACE NIMBUS V2 Folding Knife - NATURAL CANVAS MICARTA.
RIGHT KNIVES.®
The original ACE Nimbus was created as the perfect outdoor companion, designed with robust Nordic knives in mind. With version 2, we decided to push the “tool / work knife” design concept even further by rounding the scales for a more ergonomic grip, using Elmax steel, and replacing the bearings with our own special bronze washers.
A strong, capable knife with an elegant utility puukko-style blade profile, the Nimbus cuts like a dream thanks to its high full flat grind and thin edge. A modern-looking folder with attitude and excellent cutting performance.
Our inspiration for the ACE Nimbus came from the classic Danish motorcycle of the same name. The Nimbus motorcycle, originally designed in 1915 by Danish designer Peder Fisker, was produced from 1919 to 1960. In an article about the 1957 Nimbus Type C, 'Motorcycle Classics' writes that the Nimbus “is not a machine you want for cruising along the Interstate at 80 mph or blowing past a Porsche while crossing 12,000-foot Independence Pass. This was intended as a utility workhorse, a forest hauler; take it slow and it will run almost forever.”
Borrowing from the rugged, utilitarian design of the Nimbus motorcycle, this knife is our take on a great “tool knife.” The GiantMouse ACE Nimbus is the kind of knife you'll want in your winter coat, backpack, work jeans, or toolbox. The kind of knife that will be there when you need it. This is a knife you'll be happy to use for many years.
