Did Boker ever make this with a damascus blade?
I spotted this knife in a local shop and had to have it. It's beautiful, feels great in the hand, and it seems to be an excellent quality knife. I've generally gravitated towards Benchmades, but I have a varying collection that includes a couple Boker knives. They seem to be good knives for the price, but this one seems to be right on par with what Benchmade has/had to offer. The reason I was drawn to this one is because it reminded me so much of the Elishewitz 690, and I really love that knife, but this one is much thinner, so that was very appealing to me.
Once I got home I decided to do a little research on the knife, because I had no idea what it was even called. By looking up the model # on the box (01BO036) I found out that it's called the Anti-Grav, but so far I've only seen that knife with a ceramic blade. Mine has a damascus blade with absolutely no markings on it (Boker, country of origin, model #, patent) none of that stuff. So I was wondering if this is something Boker made or possibly an aftermarket blade??
