    Default Old Boker Help

    Hey guys! I'm a Boker fan, and when I saw this, for $20, I had to get it. However, I'm hoping you might be able to help me find out more info on this beauty - such as age, materials, basically anything! The scales seem to be good ole celluloid, but the tang is really interesting....



    Thank, in advance for any info

    Polish that baby up, Lefty.
    Get us some good shots of the tang & blade.
    From here she looks o.k., but we need better photos.

    Will do. That was a quick and dirty pic, in hopes of instant-ish feedback! Haha

    Here's a slightly better picture of it, in its current state:



    I'd love to find out how old this one is.

    This may help some, it's been posted before - Manah being the primary I believe.

    A real shame that the scale is broken, it sure would be a nice razor restored into it's original condition. Great find, nevertheless.
