GiantMouse ACE Grand - St. Nick's Exclusive - Red G10 - PVD Dark Stonewash Vanadis 4E Blade
Published: 2 years ago
From StNicksKnives.com:
The ACE Grand is GiantMouse's EDC-friendly version of the popular GM5. With the GM5, GiantMouse set out to create what we felt would be a “magnum opus” - the ultimate GiantMouse folder to date. A cool design with an even cooler look and finish. This exclusive version featured a Red G10 Handle with nested liners and a strong liner lock. GiantMouse did keep the large stout backspacer (in titanium) for strength but added a nice deep carry wire pocket clip, for a nice comfortable carry. This exclusive also features a Vanadis 4E steel blade (Böhler-Uddeholm's version of CPM-4V) and was designed to be perfect for all-around use. A high Saber Flat Grind makes it a strong but very effective slicer, and the pronounced swedge provides a fine point for penetration without losing strength at the tip. GiantMouse states these are at a 58-60 HRC. This is at the lower end of the optimum range of Vanadis 4E, but is still more than high enough for optimal blade performance.
