Layaway Information

Layaway Policies

We offer a layaway plan on select products so you may pay for your order over a period of 60 days. Products that are eligible for layaway will show "Layaway Available: Yes" on the product page.

Here's how it works:

The total amount of the order excluding shipping, tax, or fees is divided into three (3) equal payments. The first payment is due with the order, the second payment is due 30 days later, and the final payment is due 60 days after the order.

There is a $15 non-refundable fee for layaway orders. This fee is added to the first payment along with the shipping and any tax. The first payment is made when the order is placed.

Example: Your order total is $300 plus $12.75 shipping and handling. If you select the layaway option, your payments would be:

  • $127.75 (1/3 of purchase = $100 + $15 layaway fee + $12.75 shipping)
  • $100.00 (1/3 of purchase = $100)
  • $100.00 (1/3 of purchase = $100)

If your initial payment is made by credit card, we will automatically process the 2nd and 3rd payments at the appropriate time using the same credit card information. You will be reminded via email that a payment will be charged. If you need to change this for any reason, please contact us.

For payments made other than credit card, payment must be received within seven (7) days of the due date or the order is subject to cancellation. You will receive a reminder via email that a payment is due.

If you wish to complete payment early and have your order shipped, you may contact us at any time during the 60 day period. There is no penalty for prepayment.

Additional products may be added to a layaway order without penalty. A new payment schedule will be calculated based on when additional products are added.

If you wish to complete payment early and have your order shipped, you may contact us at any time during the 60 day period. There is no penalty for early payment.

Cancellations of layaway orders are subject to a restocking/processing fee of 10% of the order total (not including tax and shipping costs). This restocking fee is in addition to the $15 non-refundable layaway fee.

Overview

KNIVES DONE RIGHT.®
 

Given the popularity of our Limited Edition GM6 Integral folder, we've repurposed the design for an ACE line folder that we believe will quickly become a new favorite among GiantMouse fans.

The new ACE "Corta" (conjugation of "cortar," meaning "to cut") is a small stout flipper with a pointy but strong blade that fires open like a rocket. The flat saber grind, combined with the blade's sleek lines with straight back and classic edge line, give the blade an almost fang like look. 

Once you get the Corta in hand and flip it open a few times, you’ll feel the function that was designed into this knife. The simple but beautiful lines of the Corta are a nod to the designers' Nordic heritage, resulting in a functional tool for use in everyday life.

About the Maker

Anso, Jens
Anso, Jens

"I have been a knife maker since 1988 and have been full time since 2001. I started making knives in 1988 after reading an article in an old issue of Popular Mechanics and I made my first knife out of a big file using a bench grinder and a drill press as the only powertools. It was big and crude but I was very proud. Since then I have been hooked on knife making. My knowledge in knife making comes from reading books and magazines about knife making, corresponding with other knife makers and not the least learning by trial and error. I also credit the various forums about knives and knife making both for information, customers and friends. I have always had a great interest in craftsmanship and get inspired by all sorts of things ranging from traditional Japanese carpentry to modern architecture. I have a master degree in Industrial Design which has helped me a lot in refining my knife designs. After graduating I decided to become a full time maker and although it has been hard at times I have never looked back. I like being able to do what I like the most and enjoy being my own boss. I feel very fortunate that I can make a living of something I love so much. My workshop is my cave. I love being in the shop surrounded by tools and materials. Being able to do creative work everyday is a blessing."

Giant Mouse Knives

GiantMouse LCC is based in California. American owned and Danish by design. Our goal at GiantMouse is to combine amazing knife designs, with the highest possible production quality, at a fair price. The designers behind the GiantMouse brand are world-renowned Danish knife makers and designers Jesper Voxnaes (Vox) and Jens Ansø. Vox and Ansø both grew up in the rural outskirts of Denmark, spending their days sailing on the North Sea, fishing the fjords, hunting in the surrounding woods and exploring the great outdoors. All of which required them to always be accompanied by a good knife. In the hunt for the best possible knife, Jesper and Jens each started making custom knives in 1989. The idea of a joint venture between Vox and Ansø had been brewing for years. But it wasn't until 2014 when they were sitting in a bar with a good friend who started asking them questions about their individual design processes, and how they licensed their designs. This lead to Vox and Ansø explaining that they enjoy designing together, and that they have collaborated on a number of interesting design ideas. So their friend simply asked ""why not produce these?? and expressed his interest in helping on the business end of things. A few pints later, the idea of GiantMouse Knives was born, a partnership was formed, and the planning had begun for a high-end knife brand with limited numbered knives, of highest possible production quality, designed by Ansø and Vox. GiantMouse knives are not 'mid-techs' or 'semi-custom', nor have they been assembled or sharpened by Ansø and Vox. However, every GiantMouse knife is designed entirely by Ansø and Vox, and each phase of production is performed in VERY close cooperation with the two designers. To keep GiantMouse a cutting-edge brand Ansø and Vox came up with the idea that only 400 pieces of each folder design would be produced. 300 would be a standard version, and another 100 pieces (25%) would be made in a special version and marked as such. After the 400 knives are made, the design is discontinued! This will make it interesting for the designers, as well as the collectors and end-users, and hopefully keep everyone on their toes in times to come.
