Thread: Little Boker Story

I hope my story fits in here, thought it's pretty funny.

Just one hour ago I saw a simple but nice looking Boker on the US eBay. I never owned a Boker and thought it would be a nice razor especially because I'm about to learn proper honing. I tried to fetch some Bokers before but I always got outbid, and somehow Bokers are rare on German eBay
Payment was via Paypal.
I have an account, but normally I don't use it very often. Actually it's my Mom's/Dad's account, but I can use it for buying things overseas. I'm a 23 year old student, so having one Paypal account for the family is okay, especial while my parents aren't into that online banking computer stuff
Okay, before bidding I tried to login on the Paypal site to check if everything is okay with the account.
But somehow the password didn't work. I reset the password not to long ago so I was pretty shocked, and I was damn sure I typed in the correct one.

Okay, I went down in our living room to a locker where my Dad keeps some bills and stuff like that. I remember that there was my last Paypal bill (from a Wade & Butcher I bought ).
I remember having written down the current Paypal password for my parents on that paper. Unfortunately the bill wasn't there any more.

But I found something interesting. My Grandpa died some years ago, and after he died my Grandma gave his old pocket knive to us. It's pretty small with a wooden handle. He carried it always with him, but I never gave it a close look. I looked at it closely now (don't even know why) and when I saw a small tree on the handle I couldn't keep from laughing.
My Grandpas pocket knive is an old pocket knive produced by Boker

I never knowingly touched a knive or a razor produced Boker. And while bidding on a Boker razor because I finally want one, I find the old Boker pocket knive from my late grandpa

Just wanted to share that with you. Thought it is quite ironic.

By the way, I got outbid by 50 Cent.
But hey, at least I got my Boker
