Product detailed description
A knife that is perfectly adapted to the requirements and conditions of any outdoor adventure. The basis for the new development is the Boker Plus Vigtig outdoor and bushcraft knife designed by Dave Wenger, which thanks to its dimensions (overall length: 19.7 cm; blade thickness: 4 mm) not only fits perfectly into e.g. a Nalgene bottle, but is also designed for the most demanding requirements. Magnacut was chosen as the blade steel, which, unlike the tool steels usually used, was developed specifically for knife production. This steel, which has been described as a "miracle steel", has managed to achieve a very fine structure and thus high toughness and resistance to impact loads, despite its high chromium content of 10.7% and impressive hardenability of over 62-63 HRC. Combined with True-Scandi sharpening, the blade's stonewash finish will stand up to any challenge that presents itself, from the fine cutting and carving work of camp building and firewood preparation, to clubbing and chopping, to game handling. The handle grips are made of green canvas micarta and provide a perfect grip even in wet conditions. Also included is a compact kydex sheath in black with clip.

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.
