Description
Three-Tool Pocket Knife
This Boker pen knife folds three tools into one slim handle: a straight blade for general cutting, a hawkbill blade for controlled pulling cuts, and a toothed saw for small wood and cordage work. It comes from Boker's History Knife & Tool range and takes its name and flat, plain-sided profile from the Japanese Army pen knife pattern. It suits campers, collectors and anyone who wants more than a single edge in a pocket-sized package.
Features
- Straight Main Blade — A long, flat-edged blade with an angled tip handles everyday cutting, opening packages and food prep.
- Hawkbill Blade — A downward-curving blade, shaped like a hawk's beak, hooks into rope, cord or carpet and cuts as you pull it toward you.
- Folding Saw Blade — Coarse, widely spaced teeth bite into small branches and kindling where a plain edge would slip.
- Stainless Steel Blades — All three tools are stainless steel, which resists rust better than plain carbon steel when the knife gets wet or sweaty.
- Olive Green Metal Handle — Flat metal scales with an olive green finish keep the knife thin and easy to wipe clean.
- Thumb Cutout — A half-moon notch in the handle exposes the blades so you can get a fingernail or thumb on them to swing them open.
- Lanyard Hole — A hole at the end of the handle takes a cord or split ring for securing the knife to a pack or belt loop.
- History Knife & Tool Marking — The main blade carries the History Knife & Tool stamp from Boker's line of historically inspired designs.
Build And Carry
The handle is a simple pinned construction with a pivot pin at one end, and all three blades fold away inside it when closed. Each blade sits on its own side of the frame, so you can open only the tool you need. The flat, squared-off shape carries easily in a pocket or kit bag without the bulk of a multi-tool.

Versatile and reliable for daily tasks.I keep this in my pocket for everyday tasks, and it has been incredibly useful. The hawkbill blade is perfect for opening packages, and the saw is surprisingly effective for small branches or cordage. It is a well-made, no-nonsense tool that feels like it will last for many years.
Very lightweight and easy to carry.

A difficult little knifeI'm not going to give up on making this thing usable. The main blade flops around. It has very little tension. I managed to hold the blade in place long enough to put an edge on it. I've tried squeezing up and down the handle, the pin- everything. The saw is a good one, and, along with curved blade, they do possess some tension. Probably sufficient- if you're careful.
The blades take a pretty decent edge. That's the best feature. And it's also frustrating because this could easily be a really handy little knife.
The blades flop around dangerously- to the point where the knife is next to unusable. And I feel I'm being generous. I used some Ballistol on the fold as soon as I opened it up. Now it probably won't rust in my lifetime. So there goes the one thing that might have eventually fixed this knife- corrosion.
And it's way overpriced.
