A little different – and all the better for it. What do Danish designers Jesper Voxnaes and Jens Ansø do when they’re looking for inspiration for a new knife? We can’t say for sure – but judging by the name of their latest design, the Sonoma V2, it’s safe to assume that a certain scenic stretch of Northern California played a part. Sonoma County – a land of rugged coastlines, rolling hills, and endless vineyards. The kind of place where you can clear your head, breathe deep, and maybe start sketching the perfect EDC knife. With the ACE Sonoma V2, Voxnaes and Ansø have taken one of their most beloved designs and refined it – a few smart tweaks here, a bit more everyday usability there. The result? A knife that keeps the soul of the original but feels lighter, sleeker, and just a bit more… clever. Manufactured by none other than Reate, one of the most precise knife makers on the planet, the Sonoma V2 is crafted with the kind of quality that makes knife enthusiasts nod knowingly. Reate doesn’t just make knives – they make future legends.
This version features PVD-coated titanium handle scales, giving it a sleek, rugged look that’s as tough as it is classy. Inside, a solid steel linerlock ensures long-term reliability – especially where it matters most: at the lockbar. The PVD-coated Elmax blade rides on silky-smooth ball bearings and features a finely curved belly with a precise tip. The crowned spine adds a touch of elegance, while the milled detent ramp ensures a satisfying, frictionless close. And yes, the discreet little flipper tab is all it takes to fire the blade into action – with just enough snap to make you smile every single time.
The familiar wire clip keeps the knife riding low and discreet in your pocket – because good design doesn’t need to show off. And at this weight? You’ll forget it’s there… until you need it.
Bottom line: The Sonoma V2 is the laid-back Californian version of a high-end EDC – stylish, smart, and infused with just the right amount of Danish design wit. If you’re looking for a lightweight, reliable, and ridiculously good-looking knife, this one’s calling your name. Preferably while you’re sipping a glass of wine.

GiantMouse GMF1-FS
Does it always have to be a folding knife?
We say: No! In recent years, one type of knife has become particularly popular: the small pocket fixed blade.
With the GiantMouse GMF1-FS you get a small but incredibly sturdy knife that comes with a well fitted, hand made in Italy leather sheath to carry in your pocket or on the belt.
With a total length of only 138 mm and its low weight, this small fixed blade knife hardly takes up any space. The entire knife is milled from one solid piece of Böhler M390 steel.The highly rust-resistant steel alloy has the ability to hold an edge for a very long time. While still being relatively easily to resharpen the GMF1-FS can master the cutting tasks of everyday life with flying colors.
The skeletonized handle of the GMF1 has deliberately not been equipped with scales, which of course has a positive effect on weight cutting, but also allows you to apply a Paracord wrapping of your choice. Thanks to the slightly curved handle, the GMF1-FS fits very well in the hand - only very large hands might have difficulties here and could use a lanyard for additional support.
