I have a hankering to pick up an automatic knife and from what I've seen, the Bokers are about the only thing that falls in my budget.
Are the Boker automatics decent knives? Looks like they have AUS-8 steel which I think has a good reputation. I've never had an AUS-8 blade - I hope it's better than 440 which I don't care for.
Are they reasonably well built? I've seen some Boker's that looked like cheap Chinese shinola and I also had a really nice copperhead with German carbon blades and jigged bone scales that was a really nice knife. I'm sure the Boker automatic knives won't be German quality, but I would be disappointed if they were junk.
Anyone know any place around Indy and east where I could get a look at one first hand?
