@wayne's sharp world, like yours, the edges of the liners SUCK! I spent some time on the wire wheel then polisher to clean up the edges and the finish overall. Still need to work on the pocket clip. The pivot screw stripped out almost immediately due to the shit-ton of threadlocker they dumped in there. I should have hit it with my precision hot air gun prior to attempting to unscrew it. I've sent a request to Boker for a replacement pivot set. I don't have my hopes up that they'll comply without me paying. Overall, I do like the knife, though only after cleaning up what the factory should have done prior to shipping.

The dual zippers have extra interlocking rings, so you can secure it with a little lock : > Great for transporting knives that are illegal to carry in Germany and still be save from punishment! For example: You can legally carry (exceptions beside) a one-hand-knife, or a locking one, but it can't be both. When you want to carry a knife where the blade locks, you need to have it being a 2-hand-opener to carry it legally by default. Or not have it being able to lock in place when opened, if you want to have it being a one-hand-opener. So that's why this Böker puch is great! :D Because if you carry it in a locked container it counts as transport. You could also put it in the glove compartment of your car for that purpose, if you lock it. At home or on your property that's no problem though. And for carrying there are also exceptions. Grüße
