Post Your favorite Boker

Post by methadoneman »

This thing is screaming to be oiled and cleaned and I should be ashamed to post a knife in this shape but here it is. Anyways there isn't much left of this little guy. It was one of the first little cheap things on eBay to check to see if it was a scam when it was first popular. This old Boker has a lot of miles on it and ain't much to look at but I know you guys have some Bokers to show off. You know Tree Brand Boker was my late uncle who was my best friends favorite type of knife and so they always are special to me. Let's see your favorite Bokers. It can be any one of Bokers brands although I like the German stuff and Boker USA most and I have been confused by their origin of manufacturing since years ago I thought I was getting a great deal on a Treebrand Congress on eBay. I should have noticed that the blades were shiny and not the normal carbon blade color and sure enough I had bought a Chinese Tree brand stainless Congress. For the money I couldn't complain about the actual knife but until then every Treebrand knife I had was made in Germany and carbon. Well anyways I'll stop rambling and let's see those beautiful Bokers.

My favorite Bokers are newer models. I don’t own any older ones. One each of the Scout Series. Made in Solingen, Germany.

One of my favorite Bokers is this folding hunter with wood handle material.

I had exactly the same thing happen with a Boker Congress when they first started making them in China. Thought it was a good price until it arrived and I found the very small Made in China on the the box.

I have only a couple of Bokers. Here is my favorite.
