The classic backlock combines Mediterranean influences of the blade shape with elements of a traditional pocketknife - an intriguing combination with a unique flair. The blade consists of N690 with a fine satin finish. The stainless steel bolsters sport Raphaël Durand's signature groove. The scales consist of sturdy, easy-to-grip Canvas Micarta. The handy size is the perfect compromise between pocket dimensions and versatile functionality, which makes the Boxer a true all-rounder and a sure favorite of fans of unique pocketknives.

Additional steel informations:
The cobalt-alloyed N690 by Böhler (not to be confused with the lower-grade N695!) is a very reliable upper middle-grade steel we use at our Solingen manufacture for a wide variety of projects. The fine-grained N690, which ranks above 440C, offers convincing performance data in all areas. It is often sold as N690Co – the "Co" stands for cobalt and describes the exact same steel.
