Böker Solingen "1906" Ebony Pocket Folding Knife
- Made in Solingen / Germany -
Introduction:
Some things are very much en vogue for a while before falling back into obscurity - usually well deserved. Yet others are much too beautiful, too precious to remain lost forever. The classic Boker 1906 is such a case. The design is more than a hundred years old, but its clear lines are still much loved today. Therefore, we spared no effort to bring the 1906 back to life. Neither old tools nor prototypes or design drawings existed, so we had to redesign the knife from scratch, guided by traditional methods throughout the whole production process.
The result is a charismatic pocket knife with a new lease of life, exuding fin de siècle charm – a very special piece mainly because of its clean lines and characteristic grind. Following the classic style, the plates are brass while the bolsters are nickel silver. The 440C blade is secured with a back spring. Certified imported Ebony handle scales add an elegant accent.
