Received my Boker Magnum Fixed Blade Deer Hunter today, with a black leather sheath. Pictures to follow. It was shipped from the Boker USA folks although manufactured in China. Took about 5 days and I will say it arrived sharp out of the box and is some thick stock.

That's neat Ricky! At first glance I thought it WAS an old Boker!

My latest: It started life as an ebonite handled 85 pattern made in 1982. I've always wanted one of the H. Bokers from the early 1900s with the acorn shield. I had a buddy replace the cracked ebonite handles with a rootbeer bone. Then he inlet an acorn shield that looks like it could have come that way factory-original.

Boker never made a knife exactly like this. It is a one-of-a-kind custom. But doesn't it look like something you'd have carried around in 1910 or so?

Now that's cool! I would say LOTS of historical value!

This catalog sold last year.  Just thought you would all like to see it

This was the eBay description

This is the best knife and cutlery catalog I have ever had, and the last of the catalog collection from the Georgetown, Colorado knife dealer that I had in my old Mining Museum. Great 8 1/4 by 11 1/8 inch, hardbound copy of the 1906 classic Cutlery company of Hermann Boker. He sold his own brand as well as great cutlery products from Solengen and Remscheid, Germany as well as Sheffield, England. 66 pages of hand tools and shears, 96 pages of full size engravings of all his hundreds of models of knives along with Newton Bowie knives and John Wilson butcher knives. 83 pages of Razors and scissors. Great condition, some shelf wear at top and bottom of good tight binding, old reference label on cover as shown. Inside label from Boker asks user to not cut or mutilate this catalog for advertising illustrations. My 12 photos show only 1/20th of the catalog, many great surprises inside. Clean crisp pages and great historical value in this one.
