Böker Plus Sanjo

The folding pocket knife Böker Plus Sanjo is crafted by Guy Poggetti, a renowned knife designer from Marseille, France. His passion for art, technology, and craftsmanship is evident in his creations. The Sanjo takes its name from a Japanese town, and both its name and design draw inspiration from Japan. Modeled after the traditional Japanese Kwaiken knife, the Sanjo offers a contemporary twist on this classic style. It's perfect for everyday carry (EDC) or as a gentleman's knife. The Tanto-style blade is crafted from Stonewash finished VG-10 steel. This material is known for its corrosion resistance, ease of sharpening to a razor-sharp edge, and excellent edge retention.The knife opens with remarkable speed thanks to the frontflipper, enabling single-handed operation. Mastering the frontflipper may require some practice, but it proves to be highly efficient once learned. The pocket knife features ball bearings, ensuring a smooth and seamless opening and closing action. When opened, the Liner lock secures the blade, preventing accidental closure. The handle is constructed from brown micarta, an exceptional choice for pocket knife handles. This material offers a secure grip, is relatively lightweight, and boasts a visually appealing aesthetic. Composed of fabric fibers and synthetic resin, micarta often resembles wood in its layered appearance. Despite its wood-like look, it is a highly stable and durable material.
