Thanks, Ricky! I'm glad that the article was so well received, it was a lot of work and simply could not have been done without the assistance of several Boker collectors (including Roger) as well as the folks at Boker.
If you liked the article, please drop by www.knifeworld.com and subscribe or at least take advantage of our free two-month trial subscription. IMH?O it's pretty much the only place where you can find in-depth articles that are written for knife collectors.
All right y'all. Tighten up now, Zalesky is here!
Welcome Mark, glad to have you in the Boker Fans group.
For those of you who don't know: Mark is the editor of KNIFEWORLD, and all around "knife guy" who wrote the article on Boker that has become the go-to reference on Boker history and tang stamps.
