Nice new Boker Arbolitos

[G. Scott H.]

Just got the latest Boker/Magnum catalog, and they have several new very useful looking (even EDC'able) new fixed blades in their Argentinian Arbolito line:

I've had an Arbolito fixed blade with rosewood scales for a few years. Through all my other small fixed blades since then, it's still my favorite. It may not have a fancy steel, but it fits my hand perfectly.

Good to hear. I haven't had the chance to use an Arbolito yet, and although I've heard to stay away from their folders (as a general rule), I haven't really heard a whole lot about their fixed blades one way or the other. The ones I posted really grabbed my curiosity, as I've become more interested in EDCing smaller fixed blades recently.

It has come to my attention a while ago, that the Arbolito has a line of fixed blades with simular blade shapes as the CLB Sub-series, especially the Subclaw.

El Amigo 7.2 cm vs WharCom 4.1cm

El Pescador 6.8cm vs SubClaw 4.8cm

El Hormiga 7.3cm vs SubCom 4.8cm

As the Arbolitos have longer blades, they can afford curvier curves (bad word combination, funny nonetheless)













PS I've already got the Böker catalogue Magnum 2008... for free

Damn! MoI beat me to it! :mad::D

Those are just a small sampling of the cool new stuff at Boker. If I had the cash, I'd buy half the stuff in their catalog. :eek:

P.S. Here's one Noss might wanna test: http://www.boker.de/us/index.php?c=3000&a=02BA596H&s1=arbolito&s2=0&s3=9999&p=&pp=0

9.33" blade, T6MoV (similar to 440B?), over 1/4" thick.

G. Scott H: Thats a nice looking knife. I need to test a Boker
