Product Description
The GiantMouse ACE Clyde has more personality than most knives in its price range — and that is entirely by design. Named after The Clyde Common, a favorite Portland watering hole located inside the ACE Hotel, this knife was conceived as Scandinavia meets Japan with a flirt of Persian influence. The result is a folder with clean, confident lines that looks deceptively compact in the pocket and feels surprisingly capable in the hand. The red aluminum version brings bold color to what is already a bold design, and it wears it well. The handle looks smaller than it feels, and the ergonomics may surprise you given its simple lines.
The 3-inch blade is ground from Böhler N690 stainless steel, a tough, high-performance alloy known for strong edge retention and excellent corrosion resistance, finished to a clean satin that shows the steel rather than hiding it. The upswept trailing point profile is one of the most distinctive blade geometries in the GiantMouse lineup — it gives the Clyde its signature fang-like silhouette while delivering a piercing tip and a long, curved belly that handles slicing tasks with authority. A single black anodized thumb stud opens the blade smoothly on bronze washers, giving the Clyde a deliberate, classic manual action that feels more intentional than a flipper. The liner lock provides solid blade retention during use.
The red aluminum handle scales bring a bold pop of color, matched with a black anodized aluminum backspacer for a clean, cohesive aesthetic. A deep-carry black wire pocket clip offers discreet tip-up carry, and a lanyard hole provides added versatility. At 3.94 inches closed and just 2.8 ounces, this knife is compact, lightweight, and ready to ride in your pocket every day. Made in Maniago, Italy — one of the world's most respected cutlery manufacturing centers. As an authorized GiantMouse dealer, Knifeworks ships every ACE Clyde fast.
