Böker Boxer EDC Knife black micarta according to Raphael Durand with M390 steel
The Böker Boxer is a great EDC Slipjoint pocket knife designed by Raphael Durand from France. Thanks to the slipjoint lock, the Böker Boxer is the perfect EDC knife for daily activities. For the blade, which has a stonwashed finish, it was decided to use high-quality M390 steel. This ensures a long sharpness and edge retention. Robust Micarta is used as the handle material.
Slipjoint - soft back spring
With the Böker Boxer Slipjoint, the blade is held in position by the back end spring. The strength of the back spring is not comparable to the spring tension of a J.E. Compare Made Knives. The blade can be gently pulled out of the handle with 2 hands and then holds its position. In the social media this is sometimes rated as negative, but let's be honest, if you cut something with the blade, the pressure goes up and mechanically it is not possible to collapse the Klinige. On the other hand, you get excited when the return spring is too tight and your fingernails just fly away. In my opinion, the Böker Boxer is precisely tailored and is a lot of fun every day.
