Product detailed description
The Böker Plus Advent Calendar 2026 Gent brings an unconventional combination of Christmas atmosphere, knifemaking craft, and the joy of assembling your own folding knife. Instead of the usual sweets, 24 advent windows hide individual components from which a fully functional pocket knife based on the popular Böker Plus Gent model will gradually emerge. Each day reveals another part of the kit or a small surprise, giving the wait for Christmas a completely different dimension. This original advent calendar will especially delight lovers of knives, technology, and everyone who enjoys discovering how things work.
The basis of the kit is the elegant Böker Plus Gent folding knife, whose construction combines classic knifemaking elements with modern processing>. The package includes blades, handle scales, connecting screws, and other components necessary to assemble the knife. Gradual assembly allows for a better understanding of the mutual cooperation of individual parts, the blade storage, and the principle of the locking mechanism's operation. It is therefore not just about assembling a finished product, but also an interesting opportunity to look into the construction of pocket knives.
The resulting knife can be assembled in a classic design with ambidextrous opening using a nail nick and a Back Lock lock>. This proven mechanism uses a spring-loaded back lever that, once opened, engages into a corresponding notch on the blade to secure it against accidental closing. To unlock it, the rear part of the locking lever is pressed. The Back Lock construction is among the traditional and long-used solutions for folding knives, valued for its simple operation and reliable mechanical blade security.
A major advantage of the Böker Plus Gent 2026 advent calendar is also the possibility of individual assembly and customization of the resulting knife according to your own ideas. Working with individual components provides an opportunity to learn construction details that remain hidden during the regular use of a finished knife. The assembly itself does not require a professional knifemaking workshop, but care, the correct seating of individual parts, and following the recommended procedure remains important.
The Böker Plus Advent Calendar 2026 Gent represents an original Christmas gift for collectors, EDC knife enthusiasts, and home DIYers. It combines daily surprises with a practical result that will not remain forgotten in a box after Christmas. The assembled pocket knife can be used during regular everyday activities and at the same time remind you of your own work during its creation. The kit includes a detailed step-by-step guide that accompanies the entire assembly process. It is precisely the combination of technical experience, the possibility of individualization, and traditional advent countdown that makes this calendar an interesting alternative to classic Christmas gifts.

The roots of Böker go back to the 17th century, when the family forge operated in Remscheid and focused on steel processing and edge tools. Over time, practical experience shaped a technical mindset that balanced durability, cutting performance, and reliability. The expansion into sabres and rapiers around 1829–1830 marked a decisive technological step, demanding precise heat treatment and consistent blade geometry. With more than a hundred skilled craftsmen employed, the company gained the capacity to refine production without losing its artisanal foundation.
During the second half of the 19th century, parts of the family moved to North America, establishing facilities in the USA and Canada. This international presence allowed experimentation with new designs and materials. Today, major production remains in Solingen, supported by manufacturing in the USA and Argentina, while modern CNC machining ensures tight tolerances and repeatable results. Böker develops knives in-house and in collaboration with well-known makers, delivering tools that combine engineering precision with practical usability, including the widely distributed MAGNUM line aimed at robust everyday performance.
