Description

Böker Special Run Applegate-Fairbairn 5.5 Century Edition US in gift box. Even though Colonel Rex Applegate passed away in July 1998, his legacy remains with us, and so, we celebrate the date of his birth, in June of 1914... 100 years ago. Partnered with Wild Bill Donovas of the OSS to initiate the "School for Spies and Assassins." Learned hand to hand combat with W.E. Fairbairn. Was a personal friend and shooting instructor to John Wayne. Expert in riot control and combat handgun techniques. And of course, an innovator in combat knife development and technique. In honor of this celebration, the factory in Solingen will produce four extremely limited edition patterns in the Applegate line of fixed blade combat knives. All will sport milled rosewood handles, and carry a blade steel of 154CM. Each piece comes complete with a commemorative box and certificate of authenticity. Limited to just 199 pieces for the U.S. market, and 199 pieces for distribution in Europe.

MyGoodKnife is the official distributor of Böker. The oldest German knife company Böker was founded in the 17th century (Remscheid). Today Böker produces one of the world's best folding knives, outdoor knives, tactical knives and hunting knives. Like the vast majority of late medieval businesses, Böker was a family business founded by the head of the family. The workshop, and a little later a small factory for the production of high-quality blades, was located in the most beautiful corner of Germany - a grove of spreading chestnut trees. This powerful tree became the symbol of the famous German company.

Now the part of the legendary German manufacturer’s capacity has been transferred to Taiwan and China in order to optimize production costs (Böker Plus and Böker Magnum). However, this does not mean that the products of the famous company “with a tree on the blade” have become worse. All Böker factories are equipped with the most advanced equipment, and quality control of manufactured products is carried out centrally and very scrupulously. In our shop you can find almost whole range of Böker knives. Some models are available for pre-order. We can not permanently keep at warehouse whole range of Böker knives, but have right to represent their whole range and accept pre-orders, since we get from them goods weekly. 'If the product page doesn't have "In Stock", the "Add to Cart" button is yellow, and the button says "Shipping after 15-20 working days" - this means that the product is available on pre-order. We order the goods in the Böker manufacturer's warehouse and send it to you as soon as we receive it from the manufacturer.
