Looking to get a lockback, or if limited by choices a trapper-style pocket knife. Looking for one made in germany and prefer a Damascus blade and stag handle.

I live only an hour away from the non BF dealer and and looked at a few Bokers (mostly tactical), Hen & Rooster, and German Bull, and out of them all found the Hen & Rooster to my liking.

Noticed on their website that they also carry German Eye, but most of which are out of stock or on backorder. I didn't get a chance to look for them in the store.

I will probably go back on Saturday and pick one out.

Specs:
- German Made
- Lockback
- Damascus Blade
- Stag Handle

Any recommendations would be great!

Made by Friedrich Hartkopf in Solingen here in Germany. Damascus blade made by Markus Balbach and a lockback design. I´m sure, they´ll be found with stag handles as well.

I know a retailer that ships from Germany to the US.

Yeah that looks great, send me a link to the retailer if you don't mind.
 
Böker do a very nice LB in Washboard Bone, carbon. You can get them in Dam too...

Look out for Weidmannsheil knives too, LBs in stag, bone and horn.
 
Looking at the Hen & Rooster stag lockback as well... any idea where they are made? Some say Germany, others say Spain.

the robert klaas monolith is made in damascus, very elegant looking lockback in the style of a buck 110. In my experience you need to check the finish on them in person before buying though.
