A reissue of extremely rare standard issue knife. In the late 1940's, General Curtis LeMay, the head of the Strategic Air Command (SAC), authorized the creation of a survival kit for the crews of the long range bombers. Requirements were to be an effective tool for survival in the wild, with the ability to perform a number of functions to include field dressing and cleaning fish. A must was that the knife had to be lightweight. The Air Force reviewed the Randall Model 14, but deemed it too heavy. Decision makers who were well aware of the "Tree Brand" product requested input from Boker. The initial production of 300 pieces for evaluation resulted in immediate approval and the Boker fixed blade became the official survival knife of the U.S. Air Force. The 8 3/8" overall knife has a 4 1/2" SK5 carbon steel blade, mirror finished. The handle is crafted of leather, with aluminum and brass spacers and pommel. Includes an SAC leather sheath. Weight: 3.6 oz

Böker Plus is a sub-brand of the German company Böker, focused on modern folding and tactical knives of the middle segment. Production is carried out in Asia (Taiwan, China, Vietnam) under strict quality control. The range includes folding and fixed knives, multi-tools and accessories. Among the most popular series are Urban Trapper, Strike, Kwaiken and others.
Unlike the classic Böker lines, which include traditional hunting, kitchen and collectible knives, the Plus series is developed in collaboration with famous knife designers, which gives the models a more innovative and functional design. Many Böker Plus knives have won awards at exhibitions such as Blade Show and IWA OutdoorClassics.
The main difference of Böker Plus is the use of advanced steels (VG-10, D2, M390) and a variety of lock mechanisms (Liner Lock, Frame Lock, Crossbar Lock) at an affordable price. Attention to detail is paid to production: most knives have a special blade coating (stonewash, satin finish), are equipped with clips or sheaths for easy carrying. Böker Plus - high-quality, versatile and affordable knives for EDC (Everyday Carry), tourism and tactical use.
