Description
Specifications

The newly interpreted Boker Barlow Prime is equipped with shorter nickel silver bolsters and impresses in this version with scales of resistant jute micarta, brass liners and the carbon steel O1 as blade material.

To emphasise the authenticity of the knife, the blade is protected from harmful environmental influences with a special acid-wash finish. It is equipped with a modern, elongated ricasso, the operating safety of the slipjoint pocket knife is increased by a 90 degree arrestor when opening and closing the blade.

The characteristic teardrop shape of the Barlow can be traced back to the English pocket knives of the 17th century, making it certainly one of the oldest models ever. Handmade in the Boker knife manufactory Solingen.

Boker Barlow prime Jute

Posted by Peter Mayger on 9th Oct 2021

Received today, as expected, thankyou. Fit is excellent: scales are finished cleanly, blade sits centrally when closed, nice 'snap' and I am sure that this Knife will serve me well. What wasn't, unfortunately, very satisfactory, were : gouges to the end of the brass liners on the inside end of the bolster, an unsharpened blade and a poorly finished tree motifi where it has been inserted into the handle (ragged). Would I return this: no; it looks like the last one in stock and I can fettle it. Would I buy another Boker knife: probably not! For the cost, I am disappointed although I can see its obvious class (notwithstanding my criticisms). Hence, only a 3 star rating - it's a shame.

First time purchase of a Boker knife, I am not disappointed. The fit and finish is excellent apart from one of the scale pins, which has a very slight raise to the touch, just sits a little high, you would not expect this on a knife costing just over one hundred pounds. The blade needed a little work to get it just right, not very sharp out of the box. A few marks around the Boker emblem, again a couple of little things let it down and reason for 4 stars.. HH again are top class, they will be my first to go to for my next knife purchase.

BOKER BARLOW PRIME JUTE

I love this little knife. It's my first Boker Solingen made knife and the quality is outstanding, fit and finish is perfection. In terms of appearance, it's a muted, understated piece, which I find appealing. The action is on the firm side, with a very definite half stop and closure. Everything is aligned and smooth, making it very comfortable to hold. The acid wash on the blade may be protective, but I really didn't like the appearance and promptly polished it off. I have no issue with keeping carbon steel blades rust free without an acid wash. Finally, the blade wasn't as sharp as it could be and needed a little work to get it shave sharp, but this didn't trouble me. I'm seriously impressed by Boker's Solingen line. Prompt delivery, as always, by HH.
