Böker Manufaktur Solingen Barlow BFF Micarta

Description

The Boker Barlow BFF designed by Lucas Burnley is manufactured as a fixed EDC in full tang construction and in this version is supplied with handle scales made of green canvas micarta. The renowned designer and full-time knifemaker from the USA bridges the gap between the historical roots of the tried-and-tested Barlow and the modern elements of his line design known as Post Tactical. The characteristic drop shape of the Barlow can be traced back to the English pocket knives of the 17th century, which certainly makes it one of the oldest models ever. The name of the classic probably goes back to an enterprising Sheffield knife manufacturer of the same name, who began exporting the robust knives to North America around 1800. There they immediately enjoyed great popularity and so the first Barlow models also appeared in the history of the Boker Manufactory at the end of the 19th century.

In this fixed version, tradition, everyday utility and a touch of tactical finesse find a harmonious consonance. The compact Barlow BFF is made of ice-hardened AEB-L, a versatile blade steel supplied with excellent cutting capabilities, good rust resistance and easy resharpening. The fixed blade version of the timeless classic is supplied with contoured textured micarta handle scales and feels comfortable in the hand. The decorative hollow brass rivet also serves as a lanyard hole and adds a visual accent together with the rivets of the same colour. Supplied with a custom-fit black leather sheath that ensures a high level of carrying comfort thanks to the integrated clip. Handmade in the Boker Knife Manufactory in Solingen.
