The Mercator K55K is a type of pocketknife produced in Germany since around 1867. Mercator knives were primarily produced by Hy. Kauffmann, which was operational from 1856 to 1995.〔C. Houston Price, Mark D. Zalesky. ''Official Price Guide to Collector Knives''. Random House, Inc., 2008. ISBN 0-375-72280-7, ISBN 978-0-375-72280-6. (Pg 138 )〕 The Mercator K55K knife is still produced in Germany by Mercator, now a division of Otter-Messer. ==Construction== The Mercator K55K is of very simple construction: The handle consists of a folded piece of sheet metal, usually painted black, engraved with the outline of a leaping cat and the legend "K55K", with the second "K" being backwards. The blade has a nail-nick by which it may be grasped to pull it open, and it locks in the open position (a lockback knife), after which it may only be closed by depressing a lever at the back of the knife. As of 2013, the knife can be purchased with a stainless steel or carbon steel blade.〔Otter-Messer ()〕 The Mercator's construction is similar to that of the French Douk-Douk knife, in terms of the simple folded-metal handle. However, the Douk-Douk is a slipjoint knife, whereas the K55K is a lockback knife and has a different blade geometry.
