The Limited Edition Kalashnikov looks as wicked as the bayonets furnished with the combat rifle invented in 1947 by Mikhail Kalashnikov, who was then a young Soviet Army officer. While that rifle and bayonet was rugged, cheap and virtually indestructible, this knife is only rugged and virtually indestructible. The Boker Kalashnikov Limited uses the now nearly universal liner style lock popularized by Michael Walker and handles of 6061 TL6 aircraft alloy inlaid with Snakewood. The 4" mirror polished blade of 440C at 57-58 Rc. is shaped like that original bayonet, including the fullers (blood grooves). The knife pivot is decorated with a Soviet star. A handsomely designed clip attaches at the butt of the handle on the reverse side.
Each knife is individually serial numbered (sorry, no choice of serial number). The sheet metal box has a dense foam insert to protect the knife. The lid is embossed with the image of the rifle magazine. Measures 5" closed and weighs 5.8 oz. Made in Germany. Suggested retail is $365.00.
