Product detailed description
Innovation meets industrial charm - Darriel Caston repeatedly manages to design knives with a distinctive character that convince on the full line, far from the usual conventions. The Boker Plus Ovalmoon Swivel compact knife is no exception and can boldly claim to have just the right amount of flair. The knife is opened and closed by rotating the two halves of the handle, which are again connected at the end by a magnetic lock. The blade made of highly durable D2 material is ideal for the smaller cutting jobs of everyday life. The two differently coloured handle halves are made of aluminium and have a non-slip finish reminiscent of the textured sheet metal often used as a base plate in industry. A distinctive recess in the handle reduces weight and makes it easier to operate the ingenious folding mechanism.

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.
