I wanted to do this just so I could flip it closed, as I started carrying I noticed how useful that would be.

[@bakedbean4208]

Hey, I know this is late but I’m wondering where you got the copper washer from ? I’ve been meaning to upgrade. Mines came with all Teflon washers

[@speedydry]

Are you covering a golf match?

[@inkiron3907]

Yes, this was my warmup exercise before the match

[@terryboylstein472]

My lock got loose and won't stay locked. Trying to tighten it this week. Boker told me to use blue lock tite on the screw for the lock.

[@devilsadvocate783]

Now you have a gravity knife, which in most places is ban as well 🤣🤣🤣

[@lw4dbe]

I have both auto and non-auto version of this knife, and ended using the second one, far more often.

[@brucehigh4414]

I got one from blade ops years ago, the blade hq spring is twice as thick as mine.

[@inkiron3907]

Well that’s interesting! Thanks for the info

[@highimbrandon]

Maybe that's why I've broken 2 Blade Ops springs in a about 1 week. Haha. Not buying from Blade Ops again.

[@grizzly-_-gaming9526]

Great video man, it did sound like you were trying to talk quietly though. Maybe be a little louder next time 👍

[@inkiron3907]

Oh I was. It was like midnight 😆

[@Mycak2000]

You think the blade from the stubby would fit in the body of the full size? I wanna carry a cali legal auto but I like the full size handle

[@inkiron3907]

Good question... I’m not sure. If the blade “width” (distance from spine straight down to edge) is the same then it may work... but I can’t be certain. I think Kershaw makes some Cali legal autos in a similar price range of that helps

[@powerplay4real174]

It should.

[@synndakitt]

What bolt is holding the pocket clip? One of the bolt came off and got lost and I'd like to head to homedepot and get one. This is by far my favorite knife going on 2+ years and I don't want to replace it. Especially that they don't have my coyote brown color anymore.

[@inkiron3907]

I couldn’t find a supplier for the screws but I checked mine and they are: stainless steel, black coated, T6 Button-head Torx with a 2-56 threading as far as I can tell. Definitely 56 threads per inch, but I can’t measure the exact pitch... I hope it helps preserve your knife!

[@synndakitt]

Ink&Iron thanks so much!

[@lionknives3]

Hey Joe! They sell the Böker Strike now in manual button lock. But I can't find it on KZbin. Anyway greetings from Austria

[@inkiron3907]

Hey good to know, thank you! I think the manual button lock version is mostly in Europe but I’m not certain. Most US companies convert these Böker knives to automatics for some strange reason

[@lionknives3]

@@inkiron3907 hey joe! Look at whitemountainknives! I saw them many times there in stock.

[@Hunglikeagrimsmo]

Warriors and wonders sells them as manual folder but all the manual version have one major flaw. They either want have the pivot way too tight like to the point it's nearly impossible to get the blade out and if it's not that tight there's insane amounts of blade play in all directions. I know this from experience I literally bought them all and tried to make it work as a button lock but it doesn't because as boker says it's designed to be an auto and not a button lock

[@55gopi]

@@Hunglikeagrimsmo I was looking at the one from there. Do you have any good recommendations for button lock knives around/under 100 cad?

[@KAM128]

I have the brass version that doesn’t have the safety.

Man do I love the government keeping us safe from these

[@roadsterj]

Looking to make mine an auto, currently is manual. Could you sell me the spring? Thx

[@inkiron3907]

Maybe... as long as you’re sure the spring will fit in your knife. I am not sure how the insides of these knives look before conversion

[@Whitevaliantwarrior]

Why not just buy a knife like Cold Steel that is similar in looks and price, that's not an Auto?

[@inkiron3907]

It was my first Böker knife, and I already had a Cold Steel. But for anyone reading this, Cold Steel is a good competitor for this knife and price range 👍

[@FreePalestine711]

Nevertheless, it is still not legal in Germany because the blade can be locked.

[@inkiron3907]

I wasn’t aware of that knife in Germany, thank you. Good thing that Böker makes traditional knives too

@@FreePalestine711 yes its kind of sad here in germany... only two handed opening knives you can carry and even those can be interpreted as illegal if necessary when cops are bored. Watched a guy get arrested for "having a knife" like two days ago cause a woman saw a man cutting something with a knife and called the police.
