Boker Applegate Boot Knife and Boker Applegate Fairbairn Fighter made in Solingen, Germany that are mint.
Colonel Rex Applegate
(1914 –1998), member of the American special unit "Office for Strategic
Service" (O.S.S.) during WWII, author of several technical books on
military hand-to-hand combat and well-known designer of knives, made his
revised design of the legendary Applegate-Fairbairn® combat knife
available to us. Jointly, we optimized this knife reaching the limits of
what was humanly possible: Matte-finish blade of 440-C-stainless steel
(58HRC), handle of polyamide reinforced with fiberglass, additional
integrated weights for balance, a massive brass guard and serial numbering
for quality control.
The A-F combat knife is
available either in the COMBAT version with dagger grinding or in the
UTILITY version, where only one side of the blade is sharpened. Either
version is available with saw-tooth blade and Kydex® sheath or with a
smooth blade and Cordura® sheath. With their circular eyelets, both sheath
versions allow a variety of attachments.
