Boker Tree Brand

Post by Panzerfaust »

Here is my collection of Boker lever locks. I am a longtime owner of these knives, and have owned the top knife since 1986, and the green-handled bone since 1991. The others are more recent additions, including the blue-handled knife that arrived today. Wish they had not discontinued these.

They are nice...When I first saw them years ago I did not think they were "cool" looking, but as my taste matured I got into them...well made and very usable as a pocket knife..Nice group!

Very nice group. 8) 8) I like that green one and the bottom one. Boker must've made dozens of different scales on these through the years. I have three 712s and a 715 but no R's. Wish I had a few more.
Some folks call it a sling blade, I call it a Kaiser blade.

Agreed, and when I bought the first one in 1986, although I recognized it was a quality knife, I as disapointed that it did not have the same snap as the Hubertus I bought in 1985, and they are not as cool looking as Italians but as you said, our tastes mature, and IMO, there is no mass-produced auto today that is as good as these.

Very nice! What size are they? As Tom said, they look like a very usable pocket knife (if they aren't real big)

I was just thinking about how my Camillus TL-29 is probably one my favorite EDC knives, and these are similar shape, with similar spear point blades. But with the added benefit of being autos.

That one with the rope scales is very uncommon. If you ever want to sell it please let me know.

Here are mine in a display case. Glass removed due to glare. I always like the gray ones.
