Boker Arbolito Hunter Wood Knives

The knife is a perfect size blade at 4.7 inches not to large and not to small.The sheath is made of thick leather and holds the knife securely. Effort required to pull it out but it is new. The flat grind is more useful for a city dude like me. I would have preferred the knife in G10 scales. It is beautiful as well as useful. The knife is sharp for general use. This is not a shaving razor therefore it is not razor shaving sharp. Use the the right tool for the right job! No one in there right mind would shave with a knife!!

The Boker Hunter Wood has same dimensions as a Loveless Chute. The Bohler N695 stainless steel used for the blade is high quality and an improvement over 440C. The knife has a full tapered tang and is perfectly balanced at the hilt. The handle is made of high quality Ebony wood.The fit-n-finish on the knife overall is very good and it comes with a well-made and secure leather sheath. Out of the box the drop point blade was razor sharp. Bargain.

This knife is absolutely gorgeous! No disappointment there. The stag scales are beautiful and distinctive... mine are nice and thick which I like. Knife and sheath make a stunning package... smells like new leather shoes, love it. Seems to be good quality all around. Good strong tip, nice satin finish. really a looker, well built... 5 stars for all this. But... okay, Boker is a knife company and knives are made to cut. In order to cut, a knife needs to have a cutting edge. Mine is basically, well... square. Now, this isn't such a problem for me because I happen to know how to sharpen a knife but it's just kinda sad that Boker would let a knife like this leave the factory. It's sort of like selling someone a car tire with a hole in it. Just beware if you are expecting your item to cut something after removing from the box. I almost gave an overall 2 star but the beauty has me in a trance so it's getting a 3.Update after sharpening: 4/22/16... sing it to yourselfAt first, I was afraid... I was petrified. Kept thinking I could never sharpen without oil by my side. But then I spent so many hours thinking keep the angle straight... and it grew sharp. And it cut through paper strong, and then I honed... back and forth. I just rubbed polish in the metal with that leather not the cloth. I should have used an emery pad... I should have rubbed a little hard, If I had known for just one second I would have used a grinding wheel... go on now cut, that paper clean...Okay, seriously it was a bear to sharpen... very hard steel. I did use ceramic stones, then hand held ceramic stone, then the strop with green compound. Scary, scary sharp now with a wonderful convexed edge. Still needs more stropping and polishing to finish it off. I will leave my rating at a 3 because this work should have been done before sent to market.

Out of the ​box, the knife is dull like a spoon. The handle is made with very poor quality/craftsmanship. Boker is German/American company that was bought by the American side entirely. The knife is made in Argentina. Same quality knives from Latin America are half of the price. German/American quality looks ... different. I will post a video on Youtube about the knife.

This is truly a beautiful knife. I purchased as a gift for a young man receiving his Eagle Scout and could not have been happier. Blade was very sharp to start with and I had it like a razor after just a little work. Lines are clean and it feels great in your hand.

Awesome blade. Handle was beautiful. I will be wearing this on my trail rig for sure.

Great knife. Razor sharp and absolutely beautiful.

For the price it's a very nice knife, comfortable in the hand and a very good edge out of the box. It comes with a good leather sheath that fits well.
