Alluvial Satin

Information:
Since 31st October 2024, there has been a general ban on the handling and possession of switchblade knives of all kinds in Germany. They are now prohibited objects and the possession thereof is a criminal offence. The possession of certain switchblade knives is prohibited in accordance with Annex 2 to the German Weapons law, Section 1, Number 1.4.1, and only permitted to persons who have a legitimate interest necessitating one-handed use (such as due to the loss of an arm or a missing or dysfunctional hand), or use them in connection with professional activities (e.g. hunting, crafts) or sports (e.g. sailing or mountaineering). The same applies to commercial dealers or manufacturers of such knives. Consequently, the sale is limited only to authorized individuals. Please verify before placing an order whether you possess such a legitimate interest.

Created over thousands of years, shaped by the immense power of water: long ago, already in ancient Egypt, alluvial soils were considered an auspicious blessing for bountiful harvests. Sediment erosion created extremely nutrient-rich young soils along coasts, rivers or lakes, which Justin Lundquist describes as the source of his idea for the impressive Boker Plus Alluvial. The nature-loving knife designer from the USA has been fascinated by knives since the age of four and has been successfully implementing his own designs since 2013. Flooded with inspiration, in this first joint project with Boker, he suspends the laws of nature by bringing new life to the world of automatic knives with the slender Gentleman Folder. The D2 clip-point blade has a discreet satin finish and is opened and unlocked with a push-button. The push-button and blade axle screw are embedded in the black aluminium handle, giving the thumb additional grip during use. The reinforced alluvial base is cited by the front, mostly smooth handle section, while the fine texturing in the rear handle section picks up on the inflowing sediments. The tip-up (r) clip allows for a deep carry and underlines the earthy character of the automatic knife.

Warning and safety information:
Cut injuries: The most common danger when using knives is the risk of cuts. Sharp blades can quickly penetrate skin and tissue.
Slipping of the knife: Improper or excessive pressure can cause the knife to slip, resulting in uncontrolled movements that can cause injuries.
Injuries due to falls: Knives should never be left unsecured or near table edges to prevent them from falling and injuring someone.
Blunt knives: Blunt knives pose a greater risk of injury as they require more force and can slip more easily. Knives should therefore be properly sharpened regularly.
Improper use: Using a knife for tasks for which it is not intended (e.g. as a lever tool) can not only damage the blade, but also lead to accidents.
