BOKER PLUS 02BO055 Colubris Fixed Blade Knife with Belt Clip

The Vikings are still a synonym for extraordinary abilities. Not only were they brave and courageous seamen and warriors, but also very competent forgers. Designed by the renowned knifemaker Jesper Voxnaes from Denmark, the homeland of the Vikings, and handmade in the Boker Manufactory in Solingen, Germany, the home of high quality blades, the Gorm (named after the first Danish king) combines ageless virtues which make this knife series a real masterpiece of kitchen cutlery. The choice of materials is as extraordinary as the design. Equipped with stainless 440C steel with its high edge retention and a Rockwell hardness of 58-59- HRC, Gorm is by far superior to any ordinary kitchen knife blades, and is as tough as the Vikings. The characteristically shaped hole in the blade makes the Gorm especially unique. DJ Urbanovsky of American Kami won us over immediately with his Colubris. The characteristic blade can be best described as a modified Wharncliff blade- for which the cut edge extends slightly upward to increase the everyday practicality and versatility without losing its effectiveness for free-hand cuts (without a cutting pad) significantly. The olive green G-10 scales owes its grip to the oft-milled logo- among other things- on which several serrations on the tang and scales further support the grip. The end of the handle protrudes and is shaped like a universal hammer. Blade made of 440C with stonewashed finish. Kydex sheath with belt clip for various carrying options.Overall length: 22-6 cm.Blade length: 10-9 cm.Blade thickness: 4-6 mm.
