Böker Plus Koteyka folding knife

In his designs, the Ukrainian knifemaker Alexander Krava succeeds admirably in combining form and function at the highest level. The designer created the eponymous Slipjoint knife based on Koteyka, a virus with a cat as the figurehead, which is not taken entirely seriously by those familiar with the computer scene. Three-dimensionally milled G10 handle scales provide an incomparable grip with velvet-pawed structure all the way to the back of the blade, while the D2 blade with stonewash finish lies in wait and is only released on its prey from everyday cutting tasks with a quiet purr of the nail nick. Even without a locking mechanism, the blade is held securely by the taut spring. Without a clip and without a lanyard hole, but with a great deal of mysterious elegance.
