The Mercator K55K – A Knife with History & Personal Meaning
Published: 3 weeks ago
The Mercator K55K isn’t just any knife—it’s a piece of history and a personal relic for me. Before my buddy moved to another state, we exchanged knives as a way to remember our friendship. He gifted me this classic German-made Mercator, a knife with deep military history dating back to the late 1800s. In this video, I’ll dive into its origins, features, and why this knife holds sentimental value for me. If you’re into historic blades or knives with a story, you won’t want to miss this! Let me know in the comments—do you own a knife with personal meaning?
