July 2025 AAPK Monthly Knife Giveaway

This month Beresman (Brent), a repeat donor to the monthly knife giveaway, has decided to part ways with his Boker USA 3-blade large stockman, model 1780 from the 1970’s.

This Boker knife is part of the “Great American Story” knives series and features smooth grey Delrin handle scales, brass liners, a polished vanadium steel swedged clip point blade etched “DAWN OF THE ATOMIC AGE” with match strike nail pull, sheepsfoot blade, and spey blade. All three blades have good strong snap. Nickel silver bolsters, handle pins, and inlaid Alamogordo shield with a picture of an atom make this knife a fan favorite.

The knife appears unused (although Brent can’t be sure since he is not the original owner) but the knife comes with its original 2-piece box with insert.

Good Luck!

Sadly, no--they must have used an isotope with a relatively short half-life...
