1-2 | BOKER SCHLOSS BURG SERIE<br />

Castle Burg is a l<strong>and</strong>mark of the Bergisches L<strong>and</strong>,<br />

rising above the river Wupper near the <strong>Boker</strong> Manufactory.<br />

Count Adolf II. von Berg had the castle<br />

constructed on the foundations of a 10th-century<br />

fortress. It was finished in 1133. Today, it is one<br />

of the biggest castles in western Germany, inseparably<br />

connected to the Duchy of Berg <strong>and</strong> the<br />

Counts von Berg (1068-1225). Even today, Burg<br />

Castle still reflects the enormous wealth of the<br />

dynasty <strong>and</strong> their far-reaching influence in Northrhine-Westphalia.<br />

Count Engelbert II. von Berg<br />

was also the Archbishop of Cologne. We keep in<br />

touch with the historians of Burg Castle because<br />

the corporate history of <strong>Boker</strong> can be traced back<br />

to 1674, when the tree was first entered as the<br />

company‘s trade symbol for tools, <strong>and</strong> because<br />

our history is closely connected to that of the<br />

Bergisches L<strong>and</strong>. Right now, large parts of the<br />

castle are being faithfully restored. This includes<br />

the replacement of ancient solid oak planks.<br />

This inspired us to preserve the historic material<br />

for future generations, skillfully turning it into<br />

h<strong>and</strong>le scales in our Manufactory. This was the<br />

foundation of our knife series <strong>Boker</strong> Schloss Burg,<br />

comprising seven traditional knife styles steeped<br />

in history. Apart from the scales of historic oak<br />

wood sourced from Burg Castle (Schloss Burg),<br />

the knives also feature brass liners <strong>and</strong> blades<br />

made from O1 carbon steel. Highlighting the<br />

authenticity of the knives, the blades are finished<br />

with a special acid wash, which also protects<br />

them from harmful environmental impact. All<br />

styles are h<strong>and</strong>crafted by <strong>Boker</strong> Manufactory Solingen<br />

as a strictly limited edition of 1133 pieces<br />

worldwide. They come with a new version of the<br />

historic <strong>Boker</strong> tree symbol <strong>and</strong> individual serial<br />

number. Includes a high quality felt case. The<br />

following models are available:<br />

3 | BOKER RANGEBUSTER BLACK COPPER<br />

The Rangebuster is a traditional pocket knife that<br />

was developed in the USA for use in agriculture as<br />

early as the 18th century. The light <strong>and</strong> comparatively<br />

simple knife is reminiscent of the Solingen<br />

Hippekniep, but here it is equipped with a reliable<br />

backlock. The satin-finished Droppoint blade of<br />

ice-hardened N690 with 60 to 61 HRC is flatground<br />

<strong>and</strong> is opened with the help of the traditionally<br />

serrated nail nick. The h<strong>and</strong>le material is<br />

black Canvas Micarta, the decorative rivets are<br />

made of copper. Thanks to the contoured h<strong>and</strong>les<br />

<strong>and</strong> the slim, lightweight construction, the<br />

<strong>Boker</strong>Rangebuster is extremely comfortable in the<br />

h<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> thus creates the transformation from a<br />

working knife to a gentleman‘s knife. H<strong>and</strong>made<br />

in the <strong>Boker</strong> knife manufactory Solingen. Includes<br />

a high quality felt case. Length 17,1 cm. Blade<br />

length 7,7 cm. Thickness 2,4 mm. Weight 43 g.<br />

Item No 112914 € 139,95<br />
