I have several Boker electricians. These knives get razor sharp so easily and are fun knives. I picked this up recently here on the AAPK store. An electician of a different color. Re handled in blue bone, Solingen and in really nice shape. Love it.

Just got this 493 . From the wear on the handles and blades this was a daily carry for many years . Blades are still tight and have nice snap . It’s gonna continue ridin a pocket !

Yep, that will be a good carry knife for a good while longer!

Enjoy!

Got this new Boker today. I like it very much with the Curly Birch handle and the N690 Blade with a half-stop. Every seam is a perfect match. The blade is well centered with no rubbing against the liners. At 2 oz. it's perfect for any pocket. It came with a felt carrying pouch and I don't know why unless that is where you want to carry it with other items when you travel, excellent case.

I like those Curly Birch covers a lot. A very good looking knife.

Just bought this one. Anybody know anything about this shield? It's a first for me.

I haven’t posted any new pickups in a while. Wanted to share my Boker I picked up late last year. I’ve been extremely happy with it.
Stay safe everyone,
Phil

Nice Boker. For a using knife smooth covers are my favorite such as your smooth bone.[I think that is bone.]

Thank you sir! It is smooth yellow bone. The main blade doesn’t have the etching Boker has been using as of late. All in all I find it’s an excellent stockman.
Stay safe everyone!

Nice! I am no expert, but I would guess someone put that shield on. The shields were notorious for coming off. Still, that’s a nice old Boker!

This somewhat unusual Boker stiletto was waiting in the mailbox today! I say unusual because besides the Magnum model in the last picture showing the comparison it is the only other stiletto by Boker I have seen. It's a Chuck Gedraitis designed 7 1/4" oal A/O linerlock stiletto/VG-10 bayonet blade with thumb-wheel, single blue anodized liner, black carbon fiber covers with titanium blue anodized decorative ball inlay, blue anodized screws, and titanium blue anodized non-removeable pocket-clip. Cool little stiletto!

This arrived very recently in a group of pocket knives that I bought. This particular pocket knife was NOT the target of my purchase. It is a BOKER U.S.A. 1153, 2 blades, 2 3/4" closed, two tang stamps, pocket knife. If there was a blade etch, it isn't there now. It is missing the shield. Overall, it's a decent piece of pocket cutlery. It needed no cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

If anyone has a spare shield that belongs with this pattern of pocket knife
and would like to sell it, PLEASE PM me with the price. The shield space is
1/4" in diameter. I use PayPal.

Very nice Skip!

Really like the covers and hope you find a shield for it, it looks naked without one!

I read through many of the topics before deciding where to post this knife, and this thread seemed like the best! Just got this ProTech/Boker/Burley Kwaiken 8 1/4" oal automatic, and it's equipped with a 154-CM black-coated blade, 2-piece aluminum body, adjustable pivot, BO/BC action, hidden lanyard post in the butt-end, and a pocket-clip. Has a nice weight of 3.4 oz.'s, and it came well sharpened. Silky-smooth walk n' talk, and professional fit n' finish. Fires fast n' hard, and locks tight! Nice knife!

Really nice looking Boker Skip!

Swedge, long pull, nice looking handles & an interesting stamp on top. Overall a very cool find IMO!

Hope you can find the right shield for it.
