Böker Knife Arbolito BK-1

That Böker Arbolito BK-1 (Bushcraft Knife No. 1) is a heavy duty bushcraft knife in the style of modern pilot survival knives par excellence. The wide drop point blade has an optimal length of 10.3 cm and a medium-high grind for maximum stability. This stability is further guaranteed by the uncompromising choice of Böhler steel N690. The tang is continuous and protrudes a few millimeters from the end of the handle. This ensures maximum stability. TPE – thermoplastic elastomer – was chosen as the handle material. The material completely encloses the tang and has classic checkering for optimal grip. TPE is durable, elastic, non-slip and has low thermal conductivity. The knife sits securely in the hand in all weather and working conditions and does not drain your fingers of strength in wet and cold conditions. The recessed lanyard eyelet is also secured with a stainless steel sleeve.

The equipment includes a quiver leather sheath - the supreme discipline in sheath making - with a deep and secure fit for the knife. The knife is therefore optimally protected against loss and damage when wielding it, without requiring a security device that is prone to damage and makes quick access more difficult. A removable dangler allows you to choose between a high carrying position on the belt or a low one under the hip belt of the touring backpack. In addition, the sheath is equipped with a wide leather loop that is firmly integrated into the piping and offers space for a fire starter / metal match (9.3 mm) (not included).
