The impressive Boker Tiger Damascus expands our series of pocket knives steeped in history with a very special model. The collector's knife with a storied past is a true piece of living history and combines high-quality craftsmanship with authentic materials. The Panzerkampfwagen VI, known worldwide as the Tiger, was used by the Wehrmacht from the late summer of 1942 and, despite its modest production of only 1350 examples and the associated low strategic importance, is considered as one of the most famous tanks in history. Development of the heavy tank dates back to 1937, and mass production began in August 1942. Only seven surviving examples exist today, and they are exhibited around the world. Due to low availability, the so-called Frankentiger was even assembled for this purpose from wreck parts from different years of manufacture.
