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.
For decades, the Boker Gemini has been one of the workhorses of the Boker range. The Boker Plus Gemini NGA combines the benefits of the previous Gemini with MODern features, such as spring-supported opening. The FRN handle is light and has a rubber element for a better grip. The VG-10 blade steel leaves nothing to be desired. The excellent value for money is one of the factors that makes the Gemini NGA a versatile EDC. Coyote-colored handle and black blade with a straight edge.
