Beer Barrel Stockman

In 1516, Duke Wilhelm IV of Bavaria enacted the Reinheitsgebot, or the “Purity Law,” which regulated the brewing of beer. The town of Solingen, known as the cutlery center of Germany, also enacted strict laws for the manufacture of knives and shears. While Boker is not quite as “aged” as the brewing industry, the same quality standards apply. To commemorate this common interest, Boker is introducing a series of six traditional pocketknives handcrafted in the Solingen factory with handles made from genuine German beer barrels. Each pattern will include solid nickel silver bolsters and round shield, brass liners, C-75 carbon steel blades at 57-59 Rc., and the resurrected old Tree Brand blade etch. These are great knives for either the collector or the everyday user. Handle: Made From Genuine Beer Barrels Closed Length: 4" Blades: Carbon steel clip, spey and sheepfoot blades
