Do you recongize this boker pattern 1980s?
Hey, looking for any info on the blade, i contacted boker US and boker germany. They confirmed it was likely 1980s but could name the pattern. It is the exact same size and shape as the Hunters Knife Mono 110609 at 4.37″ Closed. Also, what is the name of the secondary blade an whats the name of it? I see it being referred to as an arch blade on Schlieper German Eye knives and its also on the puma 944 but no reference to its name or function. Is it a gutting blade?

I have a 1982 Boker / Tree Brand catalog, and don't see this pattern shown. I also don't see any blades on any of the photographed knives with a blade profile like the one you show. Maybe someone has access to some catalogs from the late 80's, or may have direct knowledge of what pattern this is. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Not the same model, but on Boker's website they call the blade with the blunted tip a "gutting blade".

I was always under the impression that it was called a "caping" blade used to remove the hide of an animal without puncturing it.
