wiss stockman ? boker?

Post by gordonjohn »

I picked up this Wiss stockman with a Wiss shield , but it sure looks like a Boker. Any help would be appreciated . Also bought a Boker Premium stock knife 7474 with etched blade, any info on this one would be great . thanks . I got these knives this past Friday and did not clean them before taking pics

J. Wiss & Sons purchased Böker USA in 1969.

If your religion requires that you hate someone, you need a new religion.

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.

In essence it probably is. Probably was made in the old Böker factory with Böker tooling. ::shrug::
