Boker Pocket Knife

There are many reasons why an individual might want to carry a pocket knife. Protection of course is one that naturally springs to mind but carrying a concealed weapon without a permit may be illegal and is often associated with severe penalties depending on where you live. Indeed pocket knives in general are not made to be weapons, but rather tools. Here we list a few examples where a good quality Boker pocket knife can really come in handy:

• In a Garage: Perhaps not an obvious choice, but a pocket knife can be very useful on a workman’s garage where cutting packaging is a common occurrence. A good pocket knife is often better made and more useful than the common exacto-style knife for this purpose.

• Camping: A pocket knife is an invaluable tool on any camping or wilderness expedition. Besides just cutting, multi-tool pocket knives also have a variety of useful augmentations such as cork screws and can openers. Some more advanced camping knives even include a set of spring-out cutlery.

There are several things to consider when looking for a good quality pocket knife. First and foremost is the quality of the blade – really this is the primary tool of the pocket knife and so it should be made well and durably. Beyond that are any extras that are necessary for your specific needs.  Boker has been in the cutlery business since 1839 and a Boker pocket knife has a well established reputation.
