Product detailed description
At the heart of the Boker Plus P-51 Damast knife is the distinctive 80-ply damascus blade, forged by Chad Nichols and composed of original parts from the historic fighter. When viewed from the side, the blade visually resembles a vintage fighter bomber. For example, the thumbhole is reminiscent of the Plexiglas cockpit cover that allowed the pilot an ideal all-around view.
Another interesting feature is the titanium handle, which closely replicates the aircraft's light metal plates with spikes. Striking is the blue knife axis bolt, which bears a silver US Army star, and the red anodized bolts, which follow the color scheme of the tail rudder. Exceptional reliability is promised by the titanium framelock with stainless steel insert, which holds the blade securely in place even under hard work. Despite the distinctive lines, the handle feels comfortable in the hand thanks to the ergonomic cutouts. The titanium clip is crafted from solid wood and allows for tip-up carry, while the lanyard hole offers additional attachment options. It comes with a quality nylon sheath for storage.

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.
