Boker Plus Knives

What Boker Plus means

Boker is a long-established knife maker, and Boker Plus is the line that focuses on modern working designs. Many of these knives come from outside designers, so the shapes feel fresh and practical rather than traditional.

If you like a pocket knife that clips in easily and opens fast, this is the corner of the Boker catalog to browse.

Folders, neck knives and a few surprises

Most of the page is folding knives. The Boker Plus JC1 Folding Knife is a simple daily carry at $59.97, and the Boker Plus Armed Forces Folder II Folding Knife gives you a sturdier grip for $63.97. For a lighter feel, try the Boker Plus Baby Bat Folding Knife at $59.97.

Neck knives hang under your shirt and stay out of the way. The Boker Plus Mega Mini Neck Knife costs $49.97, and the Boker Plus Nippon Necker Neck Knife costs $89.97.

Looking for something different? The Boker Plus Newton Martin K-BIT Karambit has a curved blade, and the the t-hawk tomahawk is a compact outdoor tool at $154.97. At the top of the page, the Boker Plus 2012 Collection Hunting Knife is priced at $337.97.

Choosing your Boker Plus

Start with how you will carry it. A pocket clip suits a daily folder, while a neck knife suits hiking or travel when your pockets are full. Handle color is a big part of the fun here, with olive, pink, green, and black all on the list.

Then think about blade shape and edge. A plain edge is easy to sharpen, and a serrated section helps with rope and tape. A larger folder feels secure in a big hand, but a smaller one disappears in the pocket.

Prices run from $47.97 to $337.97, and most of the folders sit in the lower half of that range. That makes it easy to try one, find what you like, and come back for a second.

Everyday care

Wipe the blade after use, and add a drop of light oil to the pivot now and then. A knife that opens smoothly is safer than one that sticks, so clean out lint before it builds up.
