[carvin don]

carvin don it is your lucky day.

I just happen to have one very rare 6 bladed congress Boker.

I have seen some with Pearl also.

[carvin don]

There she is! Thanks so much fer postin' that Ken. Real nice! Do you know if they only made those with celluloid handles? And are they hard to find to purchase nowadays?

Thanks again Ken

[justold52]

My memory is not to good any more.

I have only seen one like mine in 2 years. The Marble look was poor on it too.

I am thinking I have seen some Pearl handled ones but they may have been Fighten Roosters. (not sure)

Do you want to buy one?

Member not to buy a Boker Plus or Boker Magnum for they are those China junkers...

[carvin don]

Thanks again Ken, I would be interested in buying one, but would prefer a bone handle, as I assume the price would be a little less, and not outgas on me. I am just not too certain they made any in bone? I will keep my eyes open as I search the web and such. Thanks again for your comments and picture

I want to say I had that knife in bone. I for sure had that exact style in bone,but not sure if it was boker or not.Im afraid some $%%^*&* at work helped himself to it, out of my locker at work.

Thanks for the info Chris. If 'ya happen to remember the maker of the 6 blade 'ya had, please let me know...and sorry to hear 'bout the theft of it, some folks are just rotten...

I am sure Hukk has some 6 bladed congress knives made by Bulldog.

I am sure I have seen Fight'n Roosters 6 bladed ones too.

Now is it just the Boker you want or any 6 bladed congress???

I'm not that particular, but I do like the placement of the nail nicks on the Boker, ... gives me more room to "tune" up the blades fer whittlin'. I have been enjoyin' the congress patterns as of late and took a liking to the 6 blade. I'll have to look into the other brands you have mentioned, Thanks

... See my old brain was right it was a PEARL Boker.....

The reason is the 3 pins in PEARL with the sheild. You don't see that very offen.

Thank you so much for showing her....

[carvin don]

You were indeed correct, Ken! She is a beaut Thanks fer postin' the pic testcase.

Don,
Here's a link to a 6 blade congress by Hen & Rooster. If I'm not mistaken, they are made by Boker.

Bill, I look forward to seein' yer new 6 blade, congrats

Phil, Thanks a bunch. I may have to pick one up, or it would be a good excuse to drive on down there Thanks again!

edit: I just emailed the folks at KnivesLive, they are on the air right now. I asked them if the H&R's are made by Boker and if they offer the 6 blade in any other color bone material.

Well, they just said it was a discontinued pattern, and all they have left is the neon green bone. Didn't address whether or not they are produced by Boker.
