I have just acquired this meteorite folder and am curious about the 25 Year marking on the front of the blade. What is it commemorating 25 years of?

How about on another boker that I have, anyone able to identify this boker damascus? Looks like white micarta scales. It has M. Sachse imprinted on the blade under Boker, Damast.

And how about one last look and info. I bought a Boker Bowie, what I thought was 120547 but the wood does not look like what is pictured in the catalog. Attached photo of knife I have looks like burled European walnut but catalog has very different look. Any ideas?

The meteorite damascus was for the 25th anniversary for the damascus collection series.

The 120547 has a hazelnut handle and the 120547K has a chestnut handle.
 
In follow-up, was that the 25th Anniversary of the Annual Dam. series, making it 2005 or what year? Is the Dam. collection series a different series and if so, where can I get a list of them and when did they start? I have 12 of the Annual Dam series and 18 other Boker Dam, but have never seen another series?
About the Bowie, so which wood is pictured in my collection above? The catalog (page 30) says the 547 is walnut but the photo on that page sure looks like a different wood and the one I have sure looks different than the one in the catalog. I have never seen a hazelnut wood so I have no idea what that looks like. Is the K the limited edition?
Anything on that white micarta Sachse?
Thanks for your help.
