The knife is nice, well-made, and I carry it every day as my EDC. It is sharp, keeps its edge well, opens very smoothly, its appearance is impressive, and the micarta handle feels good in the hand.
Boker Cataclyst merges the features of a contemporary EDC knife with the elegance of a premium gentleman's blade. The satin-finished blade is crafted from D2 tool steel, known for its aggressive cutting performance and outstanding resistance to wear.
Smooth blade deployment is achieved through a combination of a flipper and a bearing main axis (IKBS) system. A reliable frame lock mechanism secures the blade firmly during use.
The handle’s frame is constructed from steel and features integrated titanium scales. Three-dimensionally milled recesses in the handle serve to minimize weight. A lanyard hole is positioned at the end of the grip for added retention. Everyday carry is made easy thanks to the flexible, steel pocket clip.
