And I must say, my Boker Urban Trapper is ok for the price I paid. Initial impressions: It's a little creeky, the lockup is meh, it feels sorta cheap, BUT: I cannot believe how much knife they fit into this frame at this weight. It's only a mm or two taller than my Rat II when folded but folds out into a nice long slender blade. Blade centering on my copy was fantastic however the edge was mediocre. I wasn't kidding when I said it will be used as a portable steak knife.
 
Boker plus factory edges can be pretty bad...but their VG10 is a solid performer and easy to fix up. Gotta love a traveling steak knife tho! Mine is a 4” Ota custom O1 San Mai slippie with LSCF scales and G10 Liners check them out some time if you need a suit and tie dinner knife.
 
Frankly the edge on mine was pretty bad but I fixed it in a jiffy. Like tearing through paper bad.
 
Either way it's a cool solution for my lunch bag for work. I'm on the road all day and night and it's cool. I can't stand plastic knives with my dinner. Mineral oil only on this guy.

Oh Heck Yeah !
My Grail ! ! ! !
(with a little handle scale tweaking) (I like a bit more grippola)

Which type of scales did you get ? Or maybe you got the Ti handle with the round holes.

A lot of knife in a small frame
