Cabelas Boker Plus Dosier Skiinner

[jimiowa]

Friday, I had to pick up some meds and checked out the Magazine Rack while in the Hy Vee.
The only Magazine they had on knives was Tactical Knives.
Not exactly my cup of tea, but thought what the heck.
So I picked up a copy.
They had an interesting review of a Cabelas Exclusive knife by Boker, co-designed by Bob Dozier( A well known custom knife maker) . A 3" full tang Hollow Ground drop point in AUS 6 Stainless Steel. The author said in field testing he field dressed and skinned a wild Boar w/o needing any sharpening during the process. I've butchered enough domestic Hogs to know thats no small task. If in the market for a $79.99 knife this one may be worth a look.

I saw that knife while looking thru the Cabela's website recently. Very nice looking knife!

All in all not a bad price and that is about all the kniife you need to gut a deer or for most camp chores, unless you have Bill's deft touch with a 15" bowie!

That's a fine looking piece... I'm happy with the Bokers I have. Not a bad price either. Olive wood can have some really beautiful grain, I'd probably choose it over walnut.

Just for Grins, here's a link to Bob Doziers site it's worth a look.

I like the styles of blades he makes.
Have yet to decide at to whether I like Hollow Grond as well as flat or convex grinds?

Some very nice looking knives on that site.
