Boker Knives Descriptions

Boker Barlow - Prime Beech Wood

The typical teardrop shape of the Barlow goes back to 17th-century English pocketKnives, which certainly makes it one of the world's oldest knife MODels. The knife probably got its name from the business-savvy knife producer in Sheffield who began exporting the sturdy knife to North America around 1800. It became very popular from the start there. By the end of the 19th century, the first Barlow MODels appeared in the history of the Boker Manufactory.The Boker Barlow Prime is a new interpretation with shorter bolsters and a blade of nitrogen-alloyed N690. It has a MODern elongated ricasso and a slipjoint made more secure with a 90-degree lock-in when opening or closing. The bolsters and tang are made from stainless steel, while the handle scales consist of stabilized wood of the domestic hornbeam.

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.
