Böke Solingen DBK Bushfriend 2000
Code: 121510Product detailed description
The Böker DBK Bushfriend 2000 is a unique outdoor knife. This knife is a collaboration between the German brand Böker and a pair of Dutch bushcraft and survival enthusiasts known as Dutch Bushcraft Knives (DBK).
The main advantage of the knife is its robust full-tang construction, which guarantees maximum strength and reliability. The blade is made of 80CrV2 steel, which is characterized by high wear resistance, excellent cutting properties and flexibility that makes it able to withstand even heavy handling. The drop-point shape of the blade and the high saber grind allow versatile use - from fine work such as creating kindling chips to coarser tasks such as splitting wood (batoning).
The handle is made from sustainable Richlite, a premium composite of FSC-certified paper and resin that is not only durable but also environmentally friendly. The Black Diamond Finish finish gives the knife a sleek and modern look, while the brass rivets serve as both a decorative and functional element. The rear rivet with hollow design can be used as a grommet for the safety cord.
The knife comes with a handmade sheath made of quality cowhide leather, which ensures safe carrying and easy access to the tool. Its compact size and balanced weight make this knife the ideal choice for adventurers looking for a reliable outdoor tool.

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.
