Böker Pocket Knife Tiger Damascus

Böker Tiger-Damast – History in Steel, Precision in Hand

The Böker Tiger-Damast is a knife for collectors and lovers of true craftsmanship. Its blade is made of mosaic damask, forged from original steel parts of a Tiger I, which come from a historical find near Bauska in Latvia. The damask is crafted by Chad Nichols in the "Intrepid" pattern – a structure reminiscent of the distinctive tracks of heavy chains.

The ball-bearing blade opens smoothly via the thumb pin and securely locks in the steel framelock with a stonewash finish. An integrated lock stop protects the mechanism from overstretching. The handle scale made of jute micarta sits comfortably and securely in the hand. Its milled lines are reminiscent of the historical Zimmerit coating and give the knife its characteristic appearance.

With a blade length of 8.5 cm, a blade thickness of 4 mm, and an overall size of 20 cm, the Tiger-Damast is a balanced pocket knife that, despite its history, feels modern and precise. The milled clip with a steel ball, a lanyard hole, and the clean workmanship complete the overall picture.

A beautifully designed pocket knife, made from a rare material that today exists only in a few fragments and finds a new purpose in this model.
