Hey Fellas,
Just got my knife.It is a Boker or a boker clone
, anyway i paid like 480 bucks for it.It's a folder.
It has a 3 and a quarter inch blade, sharp but needs attention.Also has a seat belt cutter and glass breaker.
The pocket clip is strong and does not move about.Tip down carry only.All metal construction.Reliable and maybe a tad on the weighty side.Has a great contouring and treads cut into the handle.Has some kinda scaling as well, but might slip in the wet.
.It fits just right in my hand though.
The action is sooo smooth you have to see to believe.I mean smooth as silk.If i flick it open, it opens with a menacing click
.Sure to get attention.
The blade is thick and a tanto edge.Partially serrated.It is painted black.That will probably flake when i get down to sharpening it...
.In fact the paint may flake all over, except the handle.
Will put up pics soon.The knife gurus please take a look.Was it a waste for half k or worth it?
