Boker Damascus Steel Pocket Knife
September 23, 2007
Boker
seems to be able to create the best knives in a wide variety of styles and
designs. Noted for their tactical and innovative folders, as well as their
collaborative efforts with a great many noted knifemakers, Boker has shown with
this particular design that when they try their hand at classic styled folders
and gentlemen's pocket knives, that they are able to bring their same eye for
detail and design to that endeavor.
This particular Minis Item No. 1004DAMASCUS has a 2" drop point blade and has
a well crafted Damascus blade featuring 300 layers of steel folded as one.
The knife comes complete with beautifully rich textured African thuya handles
which are accentuated by nickel silver bolsters, that create a smooth break
between the richness of the damascus and the thuya wood handles. The
closed length of this knife is a mere 2.5", making it a great carry folder, and
at a price of $220.00, you get an affordable damascus knife with real wood
handles from a trusted manufacturer of cutlery.
The knife also makes a great gift as it comes complete with an attractive
wood presentation box. And the Solingen logo is proudly inset on the
handle letting everyone know that this blade is from a world class manufacturer.
