Boker - Solingen

When tradition meets tradition... For quite some time, the hunting community has asked us for a high quality hunting knife from Solingen. So we put our heads together with Austrian knifemaker Stefan Gobec and talked about how to take something great and make it better. The result is a traditionally shaped hunting knife, forged according to the Boker hunting knife tradition - fully integral. We raise the bar even higher for our steel, and use the proven N690, which sets the standard in this class with its excellent cutting performance. The combination of the production style and the materials used give the fully integral hunting knife maximum stability without affecting the cutting properties. The flat ground blade is 4.1mm thick, and guarantees superior performance in heavy duty chores. The neatly fitted Guayacan Ebony wood handle scales sit on a tapered tang, which not only reduces the weight but optimizes the balance. The gently sloped handle offers unparalleled ergonomics and terminates in a ricasso that simultaneously serves as a solid, non-slip thumb support, improving the knife's handling and its grip. An incomparable hunting knife that leaves nothing to be desired with its traditional shape, its equally traditional forging method, and its modern materials. Includes a slim sheath with detachable belt loop, for carrying in the traditional hunting knife bag or on the belt. Overall length: 8 1/2" Blade length: 4" Weight: 5.5 oz.
