The Rangebuster is a traditional pocket knife that was developed as early as the 18th century in the USA for use in agriculture. The light and comparatively simple knife is reminiscent of the Solingen Hippekniep, but here it is equipped with a reliable backlock. The droppoint blade made of ice-hardened N690 with 60 to 61 HRC is flat-ground and is opened with the help of the traditionally serrated nail nick. The handle material is black canvas micarta, the decorative studs are made of copper and provide a colourful accent. Thanks to the contoured handle scales and the slim, lightweight construction, the Boker Rangebuster is extremely comfortable in the hand and thus manages the transformation from a working to a gentleman's knife. Handmade in the Boker Knife Manufactory in Solingen.
Warning and safety information:
Cut injuries: The most common danger when using knives is the risk of cuts. Sharp blades can quickly penetrate skin and tissue.
Slipping of the knife: Improper or excessive pressure can cause the knife to slip, resulting in uncontrolled movements that can cause injuries.
Injuries due to falls: Knives should never be left unsecured or near table edges to prevent them from falling and injuring someone.
Blunt knives: Blunt knives pose a greater risk of injury as they require more force and can slip more easily. Knives should therefore be properly sharpened regularly.
Improper use: Using a knife for tasks for which it is not intended (e.g. as a lever tool) can not only damage the blade, but also lead to accidents.
