ALLHONE Mercator diamond stone replacement for the MERCATOR knife.

This new and novel sheath snuggly fits all the famed Mercator pocket knives from Germany. A household name among the farming and hunting fraternities for over a century in NZ.

Due to the Mercator's slimline design means a slimline and light sheath can fit it and combined with the clever handy sharpening diamond grit stone means you'll always have a sharp blade. It's the perfect marriage of the great Mercator with another great idea.

The diamond stone is relatively durable giving a goood service life.
