Boker Knives Descriptions
Boker Applegate Fairbairn Combat II
The various versions of the Boker Applegate-Fairbairn have been convincing special forces all over the world for yeARS and have emerged as an icon among Tactical Knives. The knife goes back to the classic Fairbairn-Sykes dagger from World War II and was designed by Col. Rex Applegate. The elite soldier coordinated secret operations throughout Europe during the war and even became President Franklin D. Roosevelt's personal guard.
Boker Club Knife - Desert Ironwood
The traditional Boker Club Knife is the elegant brother of the famous Boker Sports Knife, known in North America as the Camp Knife. While the dimensions are almost the same, this knife has a more continuous shape, uninterrupted by tool cutouts. The typical metal bail for attaching a knife chain is also missing from the Club Knife.The tang of this new version of the historic gentleman's knife is brass, while the decorative bolsters consist of nickel silver with a deliCATely milled groove. The handle scales are made from attractively patterned desert ironwood (certified import). The historic blade design is shaped from N690 and doesn't lock. The long nail nick, also known as a long pull, is equipped with fine teeth, perfect for striking suitable matches. The fully handcrafted slipjoint knife made by Boker Manufactory Solingen comes with the new version of the historic Boker tree symbol.
