Hey everyone! After further research of the tang, I have decided to send this back to the manufacturer. I believe this is a good knife but it would have be a light duty tracker knife. That’s just my thoughts. My first impression on this was blown away and I love the design but I have been hearing stories of this breaking. Therefore it’s not quite what I’m looking for. I think they should increase the tang and raise the price.

I like how the full size is 7" blade. Thats a great all around use size for a survival knife in my experience

Badass knife

Great video. I hesitated today on buying it but tomorrow I will own it. You were that convincing

Awesome! It’s def a beauty and has a great feel. I just wouldn’t throw it (not that you would haha)

Outstanding video

Thank you for the reviews on the various tracker knives as it is great information. I am looking at a lot of tracker knives and trying to figure out what will work best for me. Your videos on them is a big help in making the correct decision. Keep up the great work!!! Merry Christmas ya all!

I forgot to add, can you do an update on the various tracker knives as you use and test them? I would like to see how they hold up and see which ones are worth the money you pay for them and which ones are not. Many thanks in advanced.

Thanks for all your great reviews. I’m glad to see this one- I got the largerr version last week and really like it. Like you said in other videos- these tracker style knives can be very good defense knives too. The thick spine and weight forward blade makes for a real weapon- like a smaller kurki.

Thanks brother and yep fully understand. I almost didn’t get because of the skeleton tang. I wonder if that’s how they cut some of the cost? I bought this to hold me accountable to not throw it lol

@@411Outdoors yea you gotta be carefull. Some knives have welded tangs. And if your wacking it with a stick for a hammer you gotta do it directly over the thing your hitting; cos those tangs break. I don't think they temper the welds either. Are you a forged in fire fan? I like the demascus competitions. Specially balberrings in canister. Or chain oooooo chains great. But i find they forget to layer them properly so you get two grades of steel all jumbled up and they just look yuk

I use for light duty matters since 1 year, the only issue is the coating that make the sharpening tricky.. therefore I ve removed all coating close to the edge, for heavy activity just play a small hatchet.

Awesome knife! I don't have a tracker yet. I guess a rod is needed for sharpening part of the edge.

I have one. I bought one for like 50$ a year ago. I was pump as I love trucker design. My thoughts... the skeleton handle is a failure. It is not a kitchen/ligh duty knife by purpose. Its a camp knife but there is no way to batton it with out fear. I bought it before I saw test videos on yt and all my love was gone. I was in shock when I realised that few weeks later the price double! The funny thing is that full tang is easier and cheaper to manufacture. One cut less for Boker and customers will be happy. Well but they do not listen

Is it worth it? I have the warivo tracker (which I use for throwing) and I have the big cat black jaguar that I keep for camping and outdoors work. I really like the look of this boker, but not sure if it's worth the 110$ CAD price tag.

@@411Outdoors when i saw your wee knife shaped sorta like a spoon. I went ooooooooo!!! Shiny my precious. I admired dads since i was a child hes kept it in the box till i was 35. Gave it to me; razor sharp. But atmitedly knives dont really come sharp. I grind a clearance angle and a tiny cutting angle. Hollow grinding isnt realy anything to do with sharpness it just saves you a whole lotta time grinding that awefull clearance angle. Basicly same as chisels. Now ive finally got a linisher i can make my own slingshot knives. Basicly it looks like a pocket knife with two sissor handle loops built into the handle. Flick a button and they pop out like a butterfly knife. Unfortunately i cant make a switchblade knive in the handle cos thyr illegal. Dunno why? Yet slingshots arent??
