Some knife designs really crack me up. That looks to be one of the most unusable knives Iv'e seen. Someone may say "he man it's a fighter, chill" I would say no it's not. If you want to see a fighter check out Fiddlebacks fighter.
 
I wouldn't know what to do with a fighter if I had one, but I want a Fiddleback fighter!
 
Anyone want to venture a guess as to how many of these went out to the "Mall Ninja's Leaping School of Secret Tactics" ??? :)
Be safe.

Looks like a "bushcrafter" to me.............:p
Altho the MNLSST is nothing to fool around with. First rule of MNLSST, is don't talk about MNLSST.
 
I wouldn't touch that knife with your hands.:thumbdn:

It's not just Boker, it's Boker Plus! :thumbup:

Which is odd to me because a lot of the B-Plus designs look much more comfortable. I think I am going to get one of the new B-Plus M-3s, I've always had a love affair with that knife design :o
 
They're (Boker Plus) pretty decent quality as a whole, despite the above goofy design. I bought a Boker Plus Jermer EDC about a year ago and really liked it.
I just think it makes for a funny tag-line :)

Incidently though, that goofy fixed blade, as well as a set of large and small folders patterned after it, were sold under the brand name Art of War at the PX during my first deployment. Only in small print on the back of the packages did it say "a division of Boker". They were very inexpensive and alot of soldiers just ate them up.
 
Heck, I just got the latest Boker wish book, and I want 75% of what's in it! I've heard good things about the Plus line, and want to order a Vox Rhino just to feel of it, and the Burke SOB and several of the Dozier's look good...and the Kreins! Nice stuff. I just saw that porcupine up there and had to laugh at the contrast! :)
 
Yeah, I got a Subclaw a while ago, and it's a surprisingly good lil knife for the price :thumbup: I want to pick up another from the Subcom series at some point, good lil knives to stash around.

The one in the OP though, yikes....

Mist, I just noticed, congratulations on #6,000 my good man. I have really enjoyed the ones I have had the honor to read. :thumbup:
