Product Description
Designed by Danish knifemaker Mikkel Willumsen, the Dreed makes tough cuts look easy—and most knives look boring. The knife’s solid titanium frame presents like an armored shell, and acts like one too Read More
I have one of these and the thumb stud flip is very rough. You have to hold it a very specific way. I’d say that this is the worst thumb stud knife I own. The flipper isn’t very good either but it’s serviceable. The scales are definitely the best thing about it. Unfortunately, you don’t cut with them. Given the chance to go back and not buy it, I would have saved my money. Even if I didn’t spend much on it.
Got to be honest, Boker rarely produces a knife that appeals to me.
Sad really, being such an old company with lots of history but they just cannot come up with anything.
Gerber went through this but have started making some great, made in the US, knives.
Boker, go back to your roots, start making some more basic, usable blades. Make a series of outdoor fixed blades using a good carbon steel, like 52100 but with a really good heat treat ( this stuff can be crazy good) and with a nicely rounded micarta handle, sharpened spine, drop point, made in Germany.
PNWNativeCannot agree. I LIKE these scales very much. They are different, and handsome. I understand it had some issues, but it LOOKS very good. I cannot understand why Boker would discontinue it, except to fix any issues.
Co8cohkiThe ”veiny scales” are what attracted me to it. These scales closely resemble those on a particular, $1100 Shirogorov knife. Why do some companies always cancel their most interesting, most attractive knives?
Glen8People who buy $1000+ Shirogorov knives, a popular model of which has very similar pattern scales, disagree… I found a set for my PM2, and I love it!
CrimsonSkollI have an otherwise terrific Kizer Shoal which definitely does, have a cheese grater in the landing zone that is, if you don’t mind S35VN blade steel…
boker titan is roughly the same dimensions and steel for 40$, except its about half as heavy
so basically.... the extra 50$ comes from 2oz of extra titanium, milling, better hardware, and royalties... somethings not right about these numbers.
89$ for a knife with 440c steel?! That’s robbery! You’d be better off going out and buying a ganzo for 15$ that has the same steel! How is this valued at 150$!? This is borderline a scam!
Jeffster2112It’s got a titanium handle, in a Shirogorov pattern. I agree it’s a contradiction in terms, i.e. a mixture of high and lower grade materials, but 440C is good steel, as far as it goes (i.e. it is far from “cutting edge”), but I take the “don’t be a steel snob” advice seriously. Even the worst modern steels are pretty good. For this price, and given good looks and titanium, I can make a few compromises with the steel. I like the design most of all, and I may buy one yet, on eBay if necessary!
