Brand new, direct from Boker Solingen, Germany.

Blade: The iconic Barlow clip point blade is executed in cryo treated, blasted matte gray N690 stainless steel for modern performance and ease of maintenance. A traditional long pull and snappy, half-stop slip joint make for familiar operation. The full flat grind makes this a very functional and utilitarian blade for users with a subdued visual appeal. Slim and sleek, the Barlow is an excellent dress or daily carry option.

Handle: Integral dark red canvas Micarta frame and long bolsters house the blade and back spring and support handsome and rugged black canvas Micarta scales with a blasted finish for enhanced traction and modern style. The linerless design puts the weight at just over an ounce, making this exceptional for daily carry. A stainless steel back spring delivers smooth yet snappy operation.

Bohler N690: N690 is a high quality stainless steel, considered an upgrade to 440C. It has higher hardness and wear resistance for better edge retention while sacrificing some toughness. Corrosion resistance is high, at or better than VG-10. Easy to sharpen, this is a well-balanced steel for daily carry and use.
