#BOKER & CO KNIVES: In 1829 the H. R. BOKER Cutlery Company was formed in Remscheid Germany by the brothers Hermann and Robert Boker who had decided to start the production of sabre knives in Solingen Germany. With a permanently growing product line of tools and cutlery and the excellent open opportunities of global sales, the family company decided to distribute the tasks for their best interests. In 1837 Hermann Boker emigrated to the United States and founded Boker & Co. in New York, whereas the younger Robert Boker established his company in Canada, as well as a branch in Mexico in 1965, and has been the market leader under the name of Casa Boker until today. During WWII in 1944: British bombers dropped 783 tons of explosives on Solingen destroying the German facility. The Solingen factory was completely destroyed with no remaining machines, tooling, catalogues or samples. During the rest of WWII, the contact with the US stopped. In 1947 Major John BOKER (US Army Intelligence) purchased the rights back from the US Government and renamed it “BOKER USA"  After the war there was a shortage and in turn a high demand for pocket knives, which increased faster than the production capacities in Solingen, so the New York Bokers Company decided to start their own pocket knife production. In the 1950s Boker USA began importing from Solingen again. In 1983 Boker US knife production ended in the United States, and most of their products were imported from Solingen. The company is now known as "Boker Solingen"

Since the late 40s, there have been two different product lines of Boker knives on the US market with identical logos and sometimes even identical item numbers;

  • One product line was actually made in the USA, that has the marking "Boker USA" 
  • The other product line was made in Solingen GERMANY, with the different markings "H. Boker Improved Cutlery Solingen".
