A very nice compact EDC knife, comfortable and well made. The mechanism works smoothly, the knife sits well in the hand, and the blade is practical for everyday tasks. I like its simple, modern design and solid build quality.
Boker Solingen Kihon Bifold 42A Folding Knife
EDC (Every Day Carry) folding knife equipped with an 81 mm Drop-Point blade. Crafted from MagnaCut steel hardened to 61-62 HRC, the blade provides superior durability and abrasion resistance. A Back Lock mechanism secures the blade when open. The design is the work of American knifemaker Lucas Burnley.
MagnaCut stainless steel, Drop-Point profile blade
Featuring a Drop-Point blade profile, this knife is crafted from premium MagnaCut stainless steel, known for its outstanding corrosion resistance, excellent edge retention, and ease of sharpening. The Stonewashed blade finish effectively conceals scratches, provides a semi-matte appearance, and reduces reflections.
stainless steel handle, cord hole
Handle scales crafted from stainless steel provide durability and ruggedness. An ergonomic design ensures the knife sits securely in the hand, and the well-designed curvature of the handle's lower section guards against accidental hand slippage onto the blade. A lanyard hole at the handle's end allows for attachment of a safety cord. Secure and convenient carry is facilitated by a tip-up steel clip, making it possible to attach the knife to a belt, pocket, or other gear.
back lock, nail cutout
A nail nick enables convenient blade deployment, while the reliable Back Lock system secures the blade in position and guards against unintentional closure during operation.

Super flat and unobtrusive in the pocket, so you can even wear it with somewhat more formal clothing. The size allows for comfortable use. Great steel.

When you put it in your pocket, it gains a lot. It's flat, but it feels solid, and then there's that steel. I haven't had to sharpen a knife so rarely in a long time; during normal use, it practically doesn't get dull.
