This true classic of the Solingen knifeware industry is a knife with a carbon blade and handle scales made from domestic plum wood. Older generations in particular rely on the excellent edge retention of the non-stainless blade of carbon steel C75. Moreover, the blades are easy to sharpen. The domestic plum wood used for the handle scales is hard, dense and close-grained with an even texture and striking color spectrum.The heartwood shows hues of red and purple, which darken over time with UV exposure. Just like the carbon steel blade, which develops a unique patina as it ages, the plum wood is another clear sign that the knife's owner really used it. The knife series Boker Carbon Plum Wood was designed for people who cherish traditional values, who use their pocketKnives as cutting tools on a regular basis and who enjoy seeing marks of wear and usage as reminders of the stories behind them. The more these Knives are carried and used, the more charisma they develop. The fully handcrafted Knives made by Boker Manufactory Solingen come with the historic etched blade motif, Boker Treebrand Classic, brass liners and a new version of the historic Boker tree symbol.The classic Boker Trapper derives its name from the American outdoorsmen who roamed the North American prairie as hunters and trappers. They were among the most important discoverers and scouts for the European settlers, often being the first to make contact with indigenous peoples. Its slender build makes this traditional knife a perfect everyday companion.
n the world of Knives, tradition and MODern style don't have to be mutually exclusive. On the contrary, there has been a palpable trend in the knife industry to take timeless classics and give them a deliberate redesign, updating them with a MODern, contemporary appearance. At the same time, the basic concept of the knife must be respected. The idea of the so-called MODern Traditional is the basis of the knife series Boker Uno.The styles Trapper and DeliCATe have been classics for more than a century, featuring in the product lines of renowned international makers of classic pocketKnives. In their traditional form, both styles have top and bottom bolsters. The Uno series omits the bolsters on the handle butt, a MODifiCATion that gave the series its name. The two styles are no longer seen as mere utility Knives on the ranch or construction site, but also hold their own as high-end EDC Knives in barber shops or at a picnic. We selected exclusive matching handle scales made from certified imported desert ironwood, which are riveted to the brass liners. The blades consist of 440C and do not lock. The fully handcrafted slipjoint knife made by Boker Manufactory Solingen comes with the new version of the historic Boker tree symbol.
