Böker Plus Hidden Release Trapper G-10 01BP0028

Product detailed description
The most interesting design element of this model is the Hidden Release automatic mechanism with the patented Bolster Lock system from CobraTec. Unlike common automatic knives, it has no separate button or visible lever for opening. Control is provided by the left front bolster of the handle made of matte stainless steel, which, when moved upwards, releases the spring mechanism and automatically opens the blade. The same moving element also serves to unlock the blade before closing it. This cleverly integrated system maintains the clean lines of the classic Trapper while simultaneously offering fast and convenient operation.
The D2 tool steel blade offers high wear resistance and very good edge retention during everyday use. Thanks to a higher content of carbon and chromium, this steel achieves good cutting properties and maintains sharpness for a long time. D2 is among steels with increased corrosion resistance, but not among fully stainless materials, so it appreciates basic maintenance and protection from long-term moisture. The satin finish emphasizes the classic character of the blade and creates a pleasant contrast with the matte steel bolsters.
The handle utilizes black scales made of G10 composite material, consisting of layers of glass fibers bonded with epoxy resin. G10 is characterized by strength, dimensional stability, and resistance to moisture as well as regular mechanical stress. The finely textured surface limits slipping in the palm, while the rounded shapes contribute to a comfortable grip. The matte stainless steel bolsters give the handle the characteristic look of traditional American folding knives, but also form a functional part of the opening mechanism.
Böker Plus Hidden Release Trapper combines historical design with unusual automatic opening that remains almost invisible at first glance. Practical everyday carry is facilitated by the Deep Carry pocket clip, allowing for discreet storage of the knife deep in the pocket in a Tip-Up orientation for the right side. This model will appeal not only to fans of automatic knives, but also to collectors and lovers of traditional American constructions looking for an interesting alternative to classic slipjoint folding knives.

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.
