Description

The Boker Trench Knife is a reproduction of the original blade produced by Heinrich Boker & Co. Solingen for trench warfare. This new recreation of the knife is made with high carbon steel featuring 0.75 percent carbon, as well as a steel crossguard, a wood forearm handle and an official tang stamp - just like the ones made back in 1915. Each knife has its own serial number to prove its status as a genuine collectors item. High-carbon steel is known for its incredible hardness and ability to hold an edge. It is easier to sharpen than stainless steel, and is able to retain its sharpness for far longer. The natural oak handle provides a strong grip, and is contoured for use as a punch-dagger as well as a cutting blade. Includes a luxurious leather sheath with a metal tip. These knives are proudly manufactured in Germany, just like the original ones in 1915. The blade is 5 -in. long and the overall length is 10 in. It weighs 5.9 oz. Limited lifetime warranty. A chestnut tree is the world famous trademark of the Boker knife manufactory in Solingen, Germany. It represents innovative, high quality, exceptional knives, manufactured with pride, by hand, for over 145 years.
