Looking at two Bokers, opinions?

[14Tango]

A friend just showed me two Bokers he picked up recently, the first is the Exskelimoor I and the second is the Savannah and he raved about them both. I haven't really kept up with Boker but after that I checked out their web site and was really impressed. I'm currently looking at the Boker Vox Rhino and the Exskelibur I. Both are priced in a range that won't get me in trouble with the wife and look like great knives. The Exskelibur would be used as an EDC knife while the Rhino would probably be used as a field knife or working knife. Anyone have and use either of those knives? The Vox Rold camp knife looks awesome as well, probably have to wait a while for that one though. Any input would be appreciated.

I got my Boker Plus Rhino from AG Russell - it has the stag grips - their 'special' variant - and came with a leather sheath and a metal clip. More importantly - it was 'in stock'. It compares, somewhat, with my Boker Pry-Mate. Either could be used to clean small game, I suppose. They both lack the hand-filling grip I would want for cleaning game. That Savannah is a much more appropriate hunting knife - and likely less than the Pry-Mate now. The Rhino is handy for 'woods bumming' - making camp accessories - and a walking stick. It's certainly 'kinder to the wallet'!

Thanks for the review. I saw your knife pics on another thread the stag handles are a nice touch! I may be checking the A.G. Russell website. Anyway, I'm pretty set on picking up the Rhino, the knife shape is unique and looks like a effective utility knife. I'm still thinking about the Exskelibur as I already have numerous folders but that's never stopped me before.
