Böker Plus OTF Falcon 2.0, Two-Tone Finish D2 by Raimund Lhotak (06EX245)
- Falcon D2 2.0, Aluminum, Two Tone D2, OTF (Out The Front) spring knife, forward extending blade from handle. Strong construction, reliable operation are just a few of the advantages of this knife. Design by Austrian knifemaker Raimund Lhotak.
Falcon D2 2.0, Aluminum, Two Tone D2, automatic OTF (Out The Front) knife with a front retractable blade thanks to a strong spring. It works in D/A (Double Action) mode which means you can slide the blade in and out. Designed by well known Austrian knifemaker Raimund Lhotak, whose designs are convincing by clear and progressive forms.
The designer paid special attention to the design of the spring, the opening of the blade takes place within a few hundredths of a second. During the opening / closing of the blade the automatic makes a characteristic sound (click). In this model, the moment of force during unfolding/folding of the blade pleasantly jerks the hand, which shows what power lies in the springs of Böker Plus knives.
Steel
D2 - high carbon tool steel. With a high content of 10-13% chromium, it offers greater corrosion resistance than most high-carbon steels. Combines strength, excellent edge retention and easy sharpening. It is characterized by high hardness in the range of 59-61 HRC and resistance to abrasion.
Blade
Reverse Tanto type with Recurve wave shaped cutting edge used in good tactical and survival knives. Visually dynamic Two Tone finish. Plain, smooth blade was brought out with a mixed grind (Compound), in the part closer to the handle it is a concave grind, providing good cutting properties. At the tip we have a flat grind, both in the lower and upper part of the blade. Thanks to this, while maintaining high strength the knife has excellent piercing properties. The mechanism of extending / retracting the blade by means of a mottled slider requires for safety reasons to apply a specific force to overcome the resistance of the spring. The way of opening ensures trouble free opening for both right and left handed people.
Handle
Made of aluminum alloy coated with titanium in black. Thanks to the texture of the coating the knife does not slip in the hand during use. At the bottom of the handle are notches (jimping) for a more secure grip. Slim design allows you to hide the knife in any pocket. The single-position, right-handed clip allows the knife to be carried in tip-down position.
