Böker Barlow Prime EDC Green

The characteristic teardrop shape of the Barlow can be traced back to English pocket knives of the 17th century, making it certainly one of the oldest models ever. The name of the classic probably goes back to a similarly named, successful knife producer from Sheffield, 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 Böker Manufaktur at the end of the 19th century.

This integral-construction version of the reinterpreted Böker Barlow Prime dispenses with the characteristic bolsters and is instead equipped with continuous, pleasantly contoured handle scales made of green canvas Micarta. The lightweight construction thus completely avoids the need for additional metal liners. The blade is made of non-stainless carbon steel O1 and features a special acid-wash finish. It has a modern, elongated false edge and is opened via a nail notch. The operating safety of the slipjoint pocket knife is increased by a 90-degree locking mechanism when opening and closing. The decorative rivets are made of brass. Includes a high-quality felt case for storage. Handmade in the Böker knife manufactory in Solingen.
