The Boker 110852 Stockman delivers three essential blade profiles in one compact traditional folder, combining time-tested German engineering with premium D2 tool steel construction. This medium-sized stockman pattern addresses the everyday cutting needs of outdoorsmen, collectors, and working professionals who demand reliable edge retention and classic aesthetics.
What Makes This Different
Unlike mass-produced folders with inferior steel, the Boker 110852 features genuine D2 tool steel blades that maintain sharp edges significantly longer than standard stainless options. The traditional jigged bone handle scales provide superior grip texture and develop character over time, while the nickel silver bolsters and brass liners ensure smooth blade operation for decades. German manufacturing standards deliver precision fit and finish that surpasses most contemporary pocket knives in this price range.
Key Features
- Three blade configuration: clip point, sheepsfoot, and spey blades for versatile cutting tasks
- Premium D2 tool steel construction with 58-60 HRC hardness rating
- Genuine jigged bone handle scales with traditional brown coloration
- Nickel silver bolsters and brass liner construction for durability
- Medium stockman pattern measuring approximately 3.75 inches closed

- German-made quality with Boker tree brand certification
Field performance centers on the D2 steel's exceptional edge retention characteristics, allowing extended use between sharpenings during hunting preparation, ranch work, or general utility tasks. The clip point blade handles detail work and piercing applications, while the sheepsfoot excels at controlled cutting without a sharp point. The spey blade traditionally serves skinning and curved cutting operations. Weather resistance comes from the tool steel's low chromium content and protective bone handle materials.
