Boker "Tree Brand Classic" & Solingen made traditional knives

Pair of coppers for the weekend.

I’m going to have to start saving for some more copper Boker Barlows. I can’t get enough!

Responsible people would have warned you that this could happen. To bad there aren’t any responsible people around here!

Wait - enablers on a knife forum?

Hey, I can stop anytime I want.

Hey, I can stop anytime I want.

And you will — right after the next one…

You gotta have a thick skin in this thread!

Back on track, I am about to touch up the edge on the copper barlow so I thought I’d snap a pic of my Boker Barlow collection… so far.

Nice set o' Barlows.

Just have these 4 so far, but I’m a fan!

My two. These are really nice knives. About as small as I would want, but nice nonetheless.

Those are nice. The M4 Damascus is a nice touch.

I find the #14 Barlows to be about the smallest I'd like for a Barlow. The Bokers are closer to a #15 I think?

I posted my batch of Boker Barlows back in Nov, post #840 if anyone who hasn't seen them is interested.

The Bokers are slightly smaller than my 15, so I think they are ~the same size as a 14. Don’t own a 14 so I’m not positive.

How about removing the "tree brand" label from this thread and just posting any Solingen/German Bokers we want? I understand that the tree brand is a US thing and the rest of the world does not get it.

Here is a non tree brand Boker, still made in Germany as far as Boker is concerned.

Nice collections gentlemen!

Beautiful Barlow, I have that one and have posted it as well. No issues from me.
