GREAT REVIEW! With ordinary EDC knifes, Boker Plus quality can vary markedly. THIS, however, being actually manufactured by Boker in Germany, is certainly a gem, and my prediction is that the quality of workmanship and materials will be stellar. Thanks so much for walking us through this with a lot of knowledge behind you, and an excellent, gentlemanly presentation.
Very nice knife! I’d hate to beat that one up like I do my Benchmade knives. Not sure that I’ve seen you do knife videos before, but very cool that you did 👍🏽
I have the micarta version love it so far for my current edc blade is centered and smooth as butter just can’t figure out how to keep magnacut to hold an edge I can get it super sharp but doesn’t hold its edge very well, going to have to play with different kinds of edges I guess, this one was sold out when I went to buy, going to have to pull the trigger and get this one too!!
I have this one and for the price there are much better offerings out there. My lock sticks if flipped hard and need my other hand to release. I tried one in a store and it was much better. Sent back to Boker and they said this is not uncommon for this model and sent it back. I’m guessing the Boker quality issues I’ve heard about are true. First and last Boker. Sad since it is a great looking knife.
… it’s not uncommon for frame locks to have a bit of lock stick when they are brand new. Rub the contact surfaces of the lock with the tip of a pencil. The graphite will serve as a dry lubricant to minimize the lock stick as it breaks in.

I have one Boker knife and it's one of my favorite pieces. It is marked by quality and beauty. This one is something special!
this is one of my favorite Gentleman EDC out of my collection of over 200 knives ... love the TRPPR
That’s a good looking blade.

if it doesn't stay sharp, chances are they messed up the heat treat.
u would like the OTF AKC-F16

Nice knife. Not a traditional.
Correct, a modern traditional ;)
