The script for a GiantMouse GM release is well worn by now: images surface, forums dissect every millimeter, and the run is gone before most buyers have finished debating. The GM15 follows that script in every respect but one. Instead of letting the steel and the nameplate carry the launch, GiantMouse has filled this year's edition with watch-industry references that give collectors something specific to argue about.
The numbers first. The GM15 carries a 3-inch drop-point blade in CPM S90V, the wear-resistant super steel the GM line has favored for its flagship folders, set into a 4.5-inch titanium handle. Overall length is 7.8 inches and weight comes in at 4.4 ounces. A precision-bearing pivot drives the flipper and a frame lock holds the blade open. The GM15 lists at $395 with 250 pieces planned. Its sibling, the GMP15 "Pirate" edition, swaps the silver-and-grey treatment for blacked-out titanium with a PVD coating and blue-anodized accents, and it runs $445 with only 150 pieces made.

Where the Watch Details Live
The borrowing from horology is not subtle once pointed out, and that seems to be the point. The sword-like pocket clip resembles the hands of old mil-spec watches. The backspacer recalls the bezel of a vintage dive watch, and the custom thumb stud echoes a classic dive watch crown. Jesper Voxnaes' minimalist design keeps the hardware quiet to make room for these touches: an integrated backspacer leaves the display side of the handle nearly seamless in profile, and just two screws on the off side keep the slab clean.
Finishing separates the two editions. The GM15 gets a non-reflective fine satin hand finish on its titanium pivot collar, pivot ring and clip-on spacer. The GMP15 takes the opposite approach, with the pivot collar, backspacer and thumb stud anodized blue against the dark PVD-coated frame, a small burst of color that reads clearly in a pocket lineup of all-black folders.
A Limited Run With Collector Math
The GM nameplate has anchored GiantMouse's catalog for several years, and each annual edition has pushed harder on small-batch finishing than the last. At $395 and $445, these are not casual purchases; they sit in the territory where buyers compare against small-shop customs rather than mainstream production folders. The S90V blade steel supports that positioning, since it holds an edge far longer than the S35VN or 20CV more common at half the price, at the usual cost of being tougher to sharpen.
GM15: silver-and-grey palette, satin hand-finished titanium hardware, 250 pieces, $395.
GMP15 Pirate: black PVD titanium, blue-anodized accents, 150 pieces, $445.
Both share the same 3-inch S90V drop point and titanium frame lock construction.
A commemorative 2026 "Live Long and Carry" coin in a Star Trek theme ships alongside, limited to 250 pieces at $15.
Both editions are available now directly from GiantMouse. Given how the last several GM releases have moved, the production window is measured in days rather than weeks. As Gear Patrol's coverage put it: "only 250 examples of the former and 150 of the latter are being produced, and they will likely sell out fast.
