I'm not but what's up? What's good about them? I like the old USA made Schrade Scrimshaw Knives, particularly the SC503 with that 3" filet looking lock blade. It seems to be the perfect blade for everything I use it for, from small/ medium fish fileting, skinning large and small game and processing meat. They are like old timer knives but with with cool little artsy game scenes "scrimshawed" into smooth white composite that is supposed imitate bone or horn. What about Boker?

I'm with Rustbeltredneck on this one. Of all the pocket knives I've used over the past 65 years the Scharde (Scharde Walden) brand has proved themselves the most usefull for me. Their old carbon steel blades were great, would take an edge like nothing else IMHO. And of course USA made. Sad day when they shut down their plant in NY state (and name went to China).

My father gave me a Boker electrician's knife over 50 years ago that it is still my favorite knife. The knife has a single blade that is razor sharp and a combination screw drive and wire scrapper blade.

Confirmed knife nut here. I like Bokers, especially the vintage Solingen Germany manufactured models. Some of the newer models are nice too, the Fiskmuk for example is a Nessmuk inspired little folder. Here pictured with a Kershaw Skyline.  |

I collect 4-blade congress and 4-blade stockman pocketknives. I have well over one hundred BOKER's [ prefer the old BOKER USA made] and have found them to be not one whit better than just about any popular American made pocketknives you can name offhand.
And so it goes...

i like your style good Sir! Thanks. Boker does make some good knives. This little Gnome (another South American model) is another unusual knife, a heavy duty 'necker' I guess is a label for it.  |

I have to admit.. even their stainless models are better than most others, I am collecting the 500 series, there are 4 knives in this run, they have not let me down as of yet. Not hard to sharpen and they hold their edge.
