Wow, just caught wind of this one. Once again Boker nice job. Is this what the final product will look like?
Rumor has it that the knife will also be made with IKBS, can we confirm?
Any ideas on ETA as well as cost? Apparently this should be out in the spring catalog.

A long development period, the Kwaiken folder behind a design by the young knifemaker Lucas Burnley from New Mexico. Burnley, whose most popular knife is a fixed Kwaiken wanted to transfer the typical thin and narrow concept into a folding knife, without changing the proportions too much. The result is a design that has fascinated us, at first glance. The clean lines and sleek design that when closed but the entire blade is absolutely unique. And who now expects because of the slim grip this compromises ergonomics, the knife should always take time into your own hands! The scales of green Linen micarta provides plenty of grip without being unnecessarily harsh to grip. The slender blade is made ​​from AUS8 and runs through the ball bearing of IKBS incredibly soft. Removable clip.Available from May 2012.

we've posted some pics of this great knife on our German FB page "Böker Outdoor & collection"...

This is really a nice and sleek design... the more I have a look at it, the more I feel:

I need one...
 
Starting to get itchy assing :D Any estimation as to when these will start arriving on this side of the pond? I've noticed they're available in Europe now.
 
They won't hit here until late second half of the year. US is always one catalog cycle behind Germany.
