Hi guys and gals!
I was on the frameworks today while we were making new windows in the old farmer´s house of a friend of mine. It was a hot day (36.00 ° C in the shade) and when I came home I was very tired. My wife told me a little package arrived for me in the mail. It was from your fellow forum member willgoy.
Will some days ago that he has something to send towards my direction - but not was it should be. I very surprised when I opened the package...
This is the content:
Böker Whittler (split spring) with a great jigging on the bone scales and with great spring tension - a perfectly Solingen made knife
The KSF sheath was something I was eyeballing with almost sometimes. It is the Nortwoods branded sheath, it also carries the 2-blade GEC #73 with ease.
The handwritten letter / postcard is also really great great wildlife scenery from Scandinavia.
Knife pic with all blades opened
The tang stamp and that amazing bone
The obligatory in-hand-pic
The nicely made leather sheath... It´s of great size and it will fit a lot of knives in different sizes
As Will has stated in his letter, Böker Solingen made knives - at least the Tree Brand Knives - are nearly impossible to get in Germany. They only become sold in Solingen directly at the Böker store, but it´s not shipped to anywhere in Europe and not in Germany. Strange, but it is. So I´m really happy with such a great looking knife and the whole package made me feel like a boy at Christmas
Thanks a lot, Will! I really appreciate these gifts and I will carry it frequently.

). How odd that the only way for you get a Solingen-made knife is for someone to send you one!
