Boker Carvers Congress Whittler

[ranger]

Does anyone have experience of this knife? I quite fancy one but it is expensive to get hold of in the UK and would value opinions before buying.

Yes. Its a very well made Slippie, I've never used mine but the build quality is as good as it gets on a production knife.
PM me if your interested in buying one.

I have one.

It's a good knife. I've flattened all the bevels on mine for carving basswood. What specifically will you be using it for?

I have a Boker stockman , the knives are good and well worth the money.

Topknot.

Thanks guys, I was starting to think no one had ever heard of this one. It looks a nice little whittler that you can slip into your pocket when out for walks with the children and something that would not alarm anyone should they stumble upon you whittling.

Thanks BB, will do should I go ahead. The only quote I've managed to obtain so far was somewhat alarming given how much you can readily pick it up for in the States.

Hoodoo – I just want it as a general whittler for spoons and other small projects.
