The Boker Germany Kiboku 120573 starts from a premise that most knife designers avoid putting into words: perfection is an illusion. What matters is the quality of every small decision — and Lucas Burnley’s fixed blade EDC makes those decisions well. Full-tang construction. RWL-34 by Damasteel. Orange G10 that you can find in a pack at 3am. Interchangeable handle scales. Kydex sheath. Handcrafted in Solingen, Germany.
The blade is ground from RWL-34 — a powder metallurgy stainless steel produced by Damasteel, the Swedish manufacturer known for supplying high-performance steel to the custom and premium production knife market. RWL-34 delivers exceptional edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance in a steel that sharpens easily on any system and holds that edge through extended EDC and outdoor use. The uncoated two-tone finish enhances the refined, technical appearance of the blade while keeping maintenance straightforward — no coating to chip or wear through. Spine jimpings and a swedge add purchase and control for detailed cutting tasks without adding bulk.
The full-tang construction runs the steel the full length of the handle — the configuration that delivers the most structural integrity for a fixed blade in demanding use. Orange G10 handle scales with a non-slip pyramid texture provide grip security and high visibility in outdoor environments. The screw-fastened construction makes scale removal and replacement straightforward, and the handle accepts interchangeable scales for visual and functional customization. A precision-fit Kydex sheath provides secure retention and flexible carry options for daily and outdoor use.
