Re: Boker improved cutlery
buttonman Can't quite decide the age from the pics shown ,like to see the lever spring but it could be an early one with that improved cutlery stamp . Looks a nice leverlock to me ,there is a few write ups on Bokers improved cutlery on a google search ,the knife possibly made in the U.S in New Jerse...

Re: Worlds crappiest switchblade thread.
Made me laugh Terry .
Those chinese sure love Bill and I wouldn't put it past them.He"s more famous than chairman Mao over there .

These don't show up that often ,and at 13 dollars it's just a giveaway price as they are well built knives .
Great score ,shows they are still bargains out there .

Re: Boker Kalashnikov
Great buy Luke
These boker kalashnikovs look great users and at such a good price for a knife with decent steel . I also love that magazine case .
Yet another knife that goes on my wish I had bought one when I could list .

Re: Baron leverlock perhaps made by Bonsa?
Definitely looks to be a Bonsa to me aswell with that trapezoid lever and overall build and look .
Nice to see the clip point blade on it ,i'm used to drop point blades on these .
Baron probably added their stamp but its a real nice one to have.
