From GiantMouse’s GM line, these new drops continue a storied tradition.

GiantMouse’s GM line has an impressive pedigree. Not only has it produced a BLADE Magazine’s Knife of the Year—the GMX—it has also proven among the company’s most popular collections.

One of the aspects adding to the line’s intrigue is the limited aspect of the knives that compose it. Early on, only 400 pieces were produced for each design—300 of the standard and 100 of the P version; now, it’s 600 total knives—400 standard and 200 of the P version. But in either amount, once the run is done, so is the design. So, if you like a knife from this line, you’ll need to be quick on the draw to procure one.

With that in mind, GiantMouse fans might need to limber up their left-mouse-click fingers, because the company has two new GMs about to drop—the GM14 and GMP14. These are the first additions to the collection in a spell and are sure to be popular when they go live on the GiantMouse website Dec. 9.

As the name suggests, the knives are very similar in design. The GMP offers some premium features. At the quick, what are collectors getting in the GM14 and GMP14? A slick, sleek and modern design. These knives are as comfortable in a three-piece suit as they would be in a pair of casual jeans.

The liner locks teeter on the larger side, with the blades measuring in at 3.6 inches and an overall length of 8.6 inches. Even with the size, the knives are featherweight, with the heavier of the two—the GMP—tipping the scales at less than 5 ounces. Much of the weight savings is thanks to titanium handles, which do a number on the knives’ overall mass.

GiantMouse uses Vanax steel for the blade, a nitrogen-alloy offering some pretty desirable traits. Among the most notable are its corrosion resistance, toughness and edge retention. You find this steel in a lot of high-end fishing knives or blades bound for moist environments.

Where the GM14 and GMP14 split paths is the bling GiantMouse incorporated into each design. In particular, the GMP features a darker PVD titanium handle, PVD Vanax blade and rich bronze inlays. An interesting aspect of the use of bronze is that it will patina over time, making each knife unique to its owner.

As for price, the GM14 rings up at $395, while the GMP14 has an MSRP of $445. Both look like solid additions to a storied line.
