The only time I've seen the double tree tang stamp was on a special knife series that was made in 2006. The doubletree series of knives were all in exotic handle materials and fancy bolsters.
Scroll down to justold52's post in this thread to see one.

Your knife pictured looks like a 9885 stockman pattern with imitation tortoise handle with a 140 JAHRE shield. That would have been made in 2009. But I've never seen one with the two trees on the tang stamp... ::shrug::
That is unusual!

And here is the same knife, made the same year, with a "regular" tang stamp (one tree).

Boker does tend to "re-use" old stamps. That's one of the things that makes them so interesting, challenging, and frustrating to research. :mrgreen:
Nice knife anyways. I would think that doubletree tang stamp is unusual and possibly even rare someday on that particuar knife.

That is not a Double Tree, RBD is right, it is a limited 140th Anniversary knife.
The Double Trees were all made with embossed bolsters, 3 different handle materials, and serial numbered.
Thanks, Terry
