Pimped Boker Plus Jeremy Marsh Mini-Vanquish

[akthor]

So originally my plan was to have Alex Dietz pimp a Boker Burnley Kwaiken while surfing to find the best price to buy one I came across the Mini Vanquish and I was really liking the size and shape of it. Wasn't digging the shiny blade or the shiny bolsters so I contacted Alex and we discussed pimping this instead and I decided to go for it. Decided to do LSCF scales, anodized the bolsters and liners and clip bronze, and do a dark stonewash on the blade. Alex did an amazing job and I feel like I have a full custom (obviously I could never afford a full custom from Jeremy Marsh) Alex is just great to work with, answers emails promptly and is enthusiastic about any ideas you have.

Pics of the knife as is from Boker:

A couple videos from Alex's you tube channel showing his pimp job:

I watched that video a few days ago, had no idea that was a Boker plus knife - I thought it was a custom. Very nice.

Pictures and video don't do the knife justice. LSCF is just beautiful, I think I have a new favorite handle material. Wasn't able to post pics this am but here's a couple now:

Very nice! How much does something like this cost if you don't mind me asking?
