Boker® created a very special piece for their 2008 Annual Damascus Series folder. It is a liner locking gentleman's knife designed by well-known Austrian knifemaker Stefan Gobec. The 2-3/4" drop point blade is made of a 300 layer Damascus hand forged by Boker's bladesmith in the Small Pyramid pattern. For the bolsters Boker chose a powder-metal stainless Damascus in the Small Roses pattern. That same material is used for the handle spacer at the butt of the handle.

The handles are Irish "Bog Oak". This oak tree fell into an encroaching bog about 3,000 or more years ago. The heavily acid water and the peat kept the air and decay from the wood until it was recently pulled from the bog. This richly historical and beautiful wood has been in strong demand for fine furniture and Boker was able to acquire only a small amount for a few exceptional pocketknives. Each knife is individually serial numbered and includes a beautiful wooden collectors box and a certificate of authenticity. Measures 3-7/8" closed and weighs 4.0 oz. Made in Germany. Suggested retail is $799.00.
