Hey group,
I've got a Copperhead one of these and I think it's a great knife.
I'm not bothered with the China thing, as this is so well made.
Takes a wicked edge... fit/finish is real good.. walk/talk excellent.
No blade play etc....
I was even more impressed when I used it to cut down small tree to carve a walking stick.
(didn't have a big knife or ax on me!)
Anywhoo, I hope others are enjoying a knife like this if you've got one of these Hybrids.
Share if you got one!
 
Which models are you talking about, the ones with primary colors on their handles? If so,I've thought about the stockman with a punch, just not sure as to their quality at the price. 440c seems alright, but it can be dirty when coming from China. Meaning it has inclusions of other metals that shouldn't be there. Nice to hear of your experience.
Thanks, Neal

I've got a Copperhead.
Quality of mine is excellent... don't know if others have had lousy experiences, I was hoping more would contribute to this topic. LOL
As far as "dirty coming from China" and other metals... mine sharpens so easily and takes a MEAN edge. I have a D2 Queen that I never use
because I can NEVER sharpen the thing. Queen gets such rave reviews, but mine gave me nothing but trouble... it sits in a tackle box.
This hybrid Copperhead from Boker Plus puts the D2 Queen to shame in my book, it has handled all kinds of rough tasks. DEPENDABLE.
I feel one should not have to struggle to get an edge with a knife... Boker plus Copperhead is an easy use all around.
Like I said earlier, I cut down a small tree with mine to carve a walking stick.
My Queen knife, it's American made and I can't use it.... Boker Plus is a great knife and made in China.
If a China knife works better than an American knife, I'm not gonna go American just because its made in U.S.A.
Now, I'm certainly not trashing American made, I Love GEC, and I love Case etc....
I was hoping many of you might contribute to this thread, as there are hardly ANYTHING for reviews on the Boker Hybrids..
most likely because of the Chinese production. I think folks stay away because of that, and also that the Solingen versions are the coveted ones.
Anyway..... I love my Copperhead and just wanted to give a thumbs up because I don't see any anywhere else on the internet.
