The different versions of the Boker Applegate-Fairbairn have been convincing special forces around the world for years and have become an icon among tactical knives. The knife dates back to the classic Fairbairn-Sykes dagger of World War II and was designed by Colonel Rex Applegate. This elite soldier coordinated covert operations throughout Europe during the war and even became President Franklin D. Roosevelt's personal guard. He trained Allied special forces in close combat and founded the "School for Spies and Assassins" at what is now Camp David. Later he continued to work as a consultant and trainer, wrote numerous books on close combat and began to develop and improve the perfect combat knife. The smaller and therefore more maneuverable version of the Applegate-Fairbairn was developed according to the same concept as its big brother.
