Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.

When i was skinning ferrets ( FITCH ) commercially in the mid 80"s my boss used to buy boxes of Mercators . Should have pocketed a few at the cost of the now. Im sure the blades were a better quality to, we used to wear them well down and they would still keep a edge,MM
The company (Otter knives) who bought the machines and rights to use the name „Mercaror“ continues to produce knives with quality steel. The Carbon steel version is made from C75, the stainless version is made from 1.4034, both a German/European steel numbers.
Unfortunately there are a lot of knock offs coming from China being sold under the same name.
So if you want an original, use a trustworthy dealer.
Bloody cheap Mercator here. Nearly half the price of most places.

I just brought an Opinel No.6. Small, light and handy wee thing, hasnt had much use so far but for $24 is nice to get something with wood, no plastic and not made in China
Yep, that's a potato
Keep it dry at all times. once the handle swells, they are difficult to open. I put a droppoint on mine. Suits me better.
