Re: boker knives?
Trail's knife looks like a 9229 to me! (electrician's knife / TL-29, etc...)
BTW, anybody see this 1982 salesman's case on ebay?
I'm not bidding, but I do have a birthday coming up.....

Re: boker knives?
only $10!?!
Good deals can still be found out there. That knife was most likely made circa 1965-1975!
Where else you gonna get a deal like that?

Here is a Boker USA bone handled 9908 that I recently picked up. Secondary blade worn down quite a bit, but both blades still have great snap and no wobble, and I love love those bone handles! Near as I can tell from my research it dates from possibly late 40's to early 50's...sound about right?

Good looking whittler Tim.
I think you have the only one existing that still has the tree shield!
That thuya wood handle really looks great.
