Jens Ansø is leaving GiantMouse Knives, a company that he helped to form in 2015 alongside fellow maker Jesper Voxnaes and company CEO Jim Wirth. Anso has stepped down in order to pursue other projects and leaves behind a lineup of more than two dozen GiantMouse collab designs.
The GiantMouse brand has been defined by the knife making partnership of Ansø and Voxnaes. These two Danish makers blended their distinct individual styles to form the signature look of GiantMouse. “We’re grateful for everything Jens has brought to GiantMouse over the past nine years,” says Jim Wirth. “As we move forward, Jesper and I are focused on shaping the future of GiantMouse, while Jens will be able to dedicate himself fully to Ansø of Denmark. We’re confident this step will allow both brands to expand in new ways and achieve the unique goals we each hold for our respective visions.”
