Details

The extraordinary Boker Sherman Tank Damascus is a piece of living history, combining high quality craftsmanship with historical materials. The American M4 Sherman Tank is one of the most famous tanks in history and was used on all battlefields of the Second World War by the US, Canada, Great Britain, the Free French Forces, China and even the Soviet Union.

Boker worked with the Americans in Wartime Museum in Virginia to create a unique Ladder pattern Damascus blade hand forged by Chad Nichols from various materials from the production of M4 Sherman tanks that were previously restored by the museum. Paired with a solid steel frame lock with Hinderer LockBar Stabilizer and contoured jute Micarta handle scale, this knife is a true collector's piece with a storied history. Includes floating display with a certificate of authenticity and individual serial number.

Brand new, direct from Boker Knives, Solingen.

Blade: Hand forged by Chad Nichols in a customized "Ladder" pattern reminiscent of the M4's tracks the stout clip point blade rides on ball bearings for fast, reliable deployment via the single thumb stud. A full flat grind and forward swedge deliver balanced performance if you choose to use this stunning collector's piece.

Handle: Shaped in tribute to the aesthetic lines of the armor of the tank, the contoured burlap Micarta is comfortable in the hand while the stainless steel frame lock delivers rock solid lockup backed up by the Hinderer LBS. Jute Micarta was chosen to reflect a color combination of the camouflage paint used by both the U.S. Army and Marine Corps in WWII. Construction is completed with a lanyard hole and satin hardware including a custom pivot designed to resemble the main drive sprocket wheel of the M4.

Carries via a right hand, tip-up, stainless steel deep carry clip.

Nichols Damascus: Damascus offers the performance of a modern steel while delivering a unique look from the pattern welded layers and acid etched finish. Available in multiple patterns, Damascus gives a knife a striking and singular look. Carbon steel Damascus does require care to prevent corrosion.
