Böker Plus Urban Trapper Flipjoint
Code: 01BO578Related products
Product detailed description
The extremely slim Böker Plus Urban Trapper from Brad Zinker has quickly become one of the most popular models in the Böker Plus range, and in this innovative flipper version it combines the popular flipper opening with an ingenious slip joint mechanism. The flat blade made of VG-10 material has a fine hairline surface and is discreetly held in place by a detent ball after opening. Although the small ball effectively prevents the ball-bearing blade from unintentionally bouncing, the resistance can be easily overcome when closing the knife manually.
The beautifully flat and very slim design makes the Urban Trapper an incomparable pocket knife for the discerning. The lightweight titanium handle is fitted with scales made of fine Bubinga wood, which on the one hand provide a somewhat fuller feeling when holding and on the other hand offer a special visual appearance. The decorative precious wood is hard and durable.
With a removable deep clip (tip-up/r) in titanium and a high-quality nylon case 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.
