Boker Plus Kwaiken production FLIPPER!

[C_Becker]

Bökers 440C is usually quite good. Not a super steel, but a good medium all around.

How is 440c? $200 is a big increase from $88-98 currently.

Titanium scales....

DAMN I wish I had known this was in the works, I bought the non flipper a couple months ago and immediately thought it was hard to open with the thumb why isn't this a flipper. If they for sure fix the issue with the point snagging on stuff while closed I would buy.

Boker's 440C is pretty good and it's a step up from the AUS8 they have on the current Kwaiken.

$200 is the MSRP like $150 is for the current non-flipper version. Figure on a street price of around $125-$130.

Not that impressed with it. It tends to not be able to take a very toothy type of edge like you can put on AUS8.

When and where will these be available first?

Check the Boker forum as well. Usually, BladeHQ is amongst the first.

"Entgegen der Angabe im Katalog wird die Klinge aus AUS-8 und nicht aus 440C gefertigt."

Contrary to the information from the catalog, the blade that is manufactured is AUS-8 and not 440C.
