Böker Plus The Dace 01BP0036

The Boker Plus The Dace is agile, fast, and adaptable. Designer and passionate angler, Joe Mangiafico, who was previously responsible for the Canoe and The Brook models, has once again hooked up a special specimen. Inspired by the peaceful fish of the same name (hazel), the US knife maker transferred its characteristic silhouette to the nimble pocket knife. The Dace defines its habitat as predominantly hard-bottomed EDC waters with a rich food supply of cardboard, rope, or packaging, with an occasional tendency toward finesse on fish and meat. The ball-bearing drop-point blade made from the edge-retention and corrosion-resistant Nitro-V develops the right bite when the flipper is activated, while the liner-lock is discreetly housed in the flattened handle made from grey 6061-T6 aluminium. Iridescent blue anodised elements such as the tip-up clip (r), the flat blade pivot screw, and the handle screws give the pocket knife a special touch. The harsh stonewash finish and the blade back with non-slip jimpings and decorative ricasso round off the look and performance.
