Boker Tiger Tank Damascus Tactical Framelock Folder Knife 111103DAM

The extraordinary Boker Tiger-Damascus is a piece of living history and combines high-quality craftsmanship with historical materials.

The Tiger Damascus folder is 7-3/4″ open length, 3.3″ blade, 4-1/2″ closed.  The straight-edged Boker Tiger-Damascus is equipped with a unique damascus blade made from the steel of the Tiger battle tank destroyed at Bauska. The non-stainless mosaic damascus is forged by hand by Chad Nichols in the Intrepid pattern and is reminiscent of the tank tracks left in the ground by the Tiger’s heavy tracks. Unlike conventional damascus, the production of mosaic damascus does not create layers, but complex damascus bars are forged by hand into a mosaic in an elaborate and very complicated process.  The unique clip-point blade is marked BOKER SOLINGEN on one side, TIGER DAMAST on the other.  There are dual thumbstuds and a ball bearing pivot for one-hand opening.  The ball-bearing blade is opened by a thumb stud and locked by a serial numbered, sturdy steel framelock with a stonewash finish, while a Hinderer lock-stop acts as an over-extension protection for the lock. The overall shape of the knife pays homage to the famous lines of the tank, while the decorative pivot screw is modelled on the main drive sprocket. The slightly contoured handle scales made of burlap micarta are provided with precisely milled grooves, which are reminiscent of the characteristic surface structure of the Zimmerit coating of German armored vehicles. With lanyard hole and milled clip (tip-up/r) with steel ball. Handmade in the Boker Knife Manufactory in Solingen. Supplied with a classy suspended display, a certificate of authenticity and an individual serial number.

Now is a great time to own a piece of history.  Made in Germany and now brought to you by Knife Command.
