GiantMouse Knives has recently introduced two new models with the Ace Farley Slipjoint in both brasss and green canvas micarta variants.
GiantMouse Knives states “The slipjoint may be the most ubiquitous type of pocketknife ever. Your father probably carried one. Your grandfather almost certainly carried one. It’s very likely that your mother even had one rattling around in her purse. So when we began to design our take on the slipjoint, we incorporated our collective feelings of responsibility to prior generations of slipjoint users to get it right – to produce a simple, yet beautiful non-locking folder that would be sure to please.
Names are important. You know this already if you own other GiantMouse knives.
The Farley was named after one of our favorite restaurant bars, found at Cavallo Point in Sausalito, California. Located at the Northern base of the Golden Gate Bridge, Cavallo Point was home to Fort Baker, a 1905 U.S. Army post.
The grounds surrounding the Farley Bar hold over 25 historic army buildings clustered around a main parade ground, and a sheltered harbor protected by a jetty providing for a perspective of the iconic Golden Gate Bridge that you’ll rarely see.
We initially went for the view.
We went back again and again for the live music, amazing oysters and draft beers.”
