Danish class with German quality

I really don't like the look or function of frame-lock folders, but I will buy anything Jens designs/makes that has a liner-lock. This is one beautiful folder - class and construction way above what they charge for it at KCI. Jens (Danes in general) have a great affinity for the sea, and the fact that this folder looks alot like a humpback whale is no accident. Shaving sharp, perfect ergonomics, good materials for construction, and a beautiful design - what else is there? Oh ya - the price: KCI has another winner here!

Anso Classic

A classy addition to my collection of folders. I don't care for framelocks (Jens Anso's usual work) but I will buy anything he designs/makes that is a liner or even back lock. I told him I really like this model and easily see the whale in it, he told me he didn't plan it that way, just turned out to look "fishy"! That's an artist for you! Anyway, this is a great price for a really classy knife. No machine marks anywhere, great ergonomics and quality materials from a quality design - add up to a great value!

Humplike and nothing else

Decent knife, but not really useful. It does not have any practical value. Its design is pretty but not well thought-through since the blade has two different angles and it is too short for that. You cannot cut anything properly, it is as if the blade would start cutting and then it just slides off and you have to readjust your hand/wrist to keep cutting...i have sharpened it to a point where you can split hair longways, but i still cant cut a string in one short cut. Worst blade design ever. Wish i havent bought it. Pretty though, and it fits in hand well.

Top 5 worst ever

Screws all over especially on pocket clip stripped within weeks. Sent in and was sent another knife...same exact problems. Boker's warranty only provides one replacement knife sontheybwiuldnt send me another. Blade is extremely awkward as was already mentioned. No edge on the blade is long enough to make significant cuts of any material. Screw holding blade is either too tight so thatnits hard to open or too loose and causes the blade to wobble. Had a few other Boker knives and they were also not good. Do NOT buy. I usually don't review anything but this knife caused me so much frustration I had to. Buy a Kershaw for same price and be much much happier.
