Boker Germany Daily Knives AK4 – 3.86″ CPM-3V Uncoated High-Point Drop Point Plain Edge Blade, Green Micarta Handle – 121511

Nordic spirit meets 150 years of Solingen steel. The Boker Germany Daily Knives AK4, designed by Alex Kremer of Daily Customs, is a full-sized fixed blade built for hunters and outdoor users who need a knife that performs when conditions stop being comfortable.

The cutting core is CPM-3V — a powder-metallurgical tool steel that stands apart from stainless alternatives by prioritizing an entirely different set of properties. At 61±1 HRC, CPM-3V delivers legendary edge retention combined with shock load tolerance and break resistance that high-chromium stainless steels at comparable hardness simply cannot match. This is steel built to take impact without chipping and hold a working edge through demanding field use. CPM-3V is a tool steel — it rewards regular oiling after use, especially in wet or humid conditions, and builds a natural patina over time that becomes part of the knife’s character.

The 3.86″ drop point with a high-point grind is the geometry hunters have reached for generation after generation — the elevated tip works through hide and joints without hanging, and the full blade length handles sustained slicing tasks without the fatigue of a shorter knife. The continuous wide tang runs the full length of the handle, distributing the stresses of batoning and hard carving across the entire structure rather than concentrating them at a weak point.

Key features:

• Blade Steel: CPM-3V powder-metallurgical tool steel, 61±1 HRC — legendary edge retention combined with shock load tolerance and break resistance not found in stainless alternatives
• Blade: 3.86″ drop point, high-point grind, uncoated, plain edge — elevated tip geometry built for game processing and precision fieldwork
• Construction: Full-width continuous tang — distributes impact stress across the entire handle for demanding batoning and carving tasks

• Carry: Concealed lanyard hole at handle end — clean silhouette, optional lanyard attachment
• Sheath: Precision-fit Kydex sheath included — snug retention, fast one-hand access, belt-carry ready
• Dimensions: 3.86″ blade, 7.87″ OAL, 4.02 oz — field-capable fixed blade that carries light for its class
• Origin: Handmade in Solingen, Germany by Boker Germany — 150+ years of blade-making tradition behind every knife

Alex Kremer spent his formative years in Scandinavia, and the AK4 shows it — the geometry is built for the tasks that define Nordic outdoor culture: game processing, wood work, and hard-use field performance. Hunters who need a knife that handles both elk and camp chores without switching. Bushcrafters and outdoor users who want production-grade CPM-3V toughness at a price point below custom. Anyone who appreciates a fixed blade that’s been genuinely designed for use, not display.
