top secret !
I sent an email to Boker asking to visit their facilities, more specifically the part where they make the razors.
So here's their response:
"thanks for your interest about BÖKER.
For a general group visit, please use the internet ---www.boker.de
But you cannot see the spezial work about the razors. Sorry. Top secret.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen - Best Regards"
Top secret !!??????

Like all humor, I'm sure there is truth behind it. As in all industries, manufacturers have trade secrets and probably fear industrial espionage. I know I sure as hell would if I was a manufacturer.

Top secret eh? They probably have a bunch of chimps in the back doing the work.

Did you ever see the movie "Phantasm" Maybe it's those little dudes, or Umpa Lumpa's...
Something strange is afoot at Boker.....We have assumed control !

Maybe that's what happened to bladewielder, I haven't seen him around for a while. Originally Posted by thebigspendur
