A... Review confirmed by purchase
The knife will remain in my collection despite a certain drawback. On the plus side, the design and the blade made of stainless steel are very good. On the downside, the lock does not smoothly engage behind the blade and sometimes you have to help it with your finger so the blade doesn't snap back. Maybe it will break in over time.

Great knife from Böker modeled after the traditional Higonokami knives made in the Japanese city of Miki. Good 440C steel and a frame lock—an excellent little knife.
