1 | BOKER ANNUAL DAMASCUS KNIFE
2022
This year‘s Boker Annual Damascus is aimed
at lovers of lightweight slipjoint pocket knives
and combines the handy construction of the
Boker Boxer EDC with exceptional materials. The
design of the French knifemaker Raphaël Durand
goes back, like many classic French pocket
knives, to the traditional Navajas from the
Mediterranean region. The stainless Clippoint
blade is made of hand-forged damascus by Chad
Nichols consists of 170 layers with a pronounced
ricasso and a 90° stop.
The pleasantly contoured handle scales are
made of 5500-year-old bog oak wood, which
is ground three-dimensionally in demanding
handwork. The stabilised wood is given a matt,
almost velvety surface during fine sanding.
Bog oak wood is not a tree species of its own,
but oak trunks that have lain in bogs, swamps
or riverbanks for centuries and were salvaged
when the areas were drained. The tannic acid
of the oak wood combines with the iron salts
of the water over the course of a long time,
making the wood exceedingly hard and giving it
its dark color.
The decorative copper rivets form a colorful
contrast to the dark handle scales, which is
further emphasised by the liners also made
of copper. The practical lanyard hole is also
reinforced with a copper bushing. Handmade
in the Boker Knife Manufactory in Solingen
and strictly limited to 999 pieces worldwide.

certificate of authenticity and an individual
