Here is the german description of the blade.....

Die erfolgreiche Messerserie aus dem Böker-Werk in Buenos Aires bekommt Nachwuchs. Böker Arbolito bietet mit dem Semi Skinner einen wertvollen Begleiter für Outdoor, Camping und Jagd. Der rutschfeste Kratongriff wird direkt auf den Erl aufgespritzt und ist so mit der Klinge unlösbar zu einer Einheit verbunden. Auch bei Nässe verliert er seinen Grip nicht und liegt satt und sicher in der Hand. Langes, ermüdungsfreies Arbeiten ist so gewährleistet. Als Klingenstahl kommt hier 440C zum Einsatz, ein Garant für hohe Schnitthaltigkeit. Die Riffelungen am Griff und die breite Daumenauflage auf dem Klingenrücken bieten den Fingern bei den verschiedensten Griffarten Halt. Die stabile Klingenspitze und die bauchige Klingenform bieten ein breites Anwendungsspektrum. Ges. 23,7 cm. Kl. 12,2 cm. Gew. 179 g. Lieferung inklusive robuster Lederscheide.

Video Transcription

hello and welcome to a new episode today we are going to take in a look at the Boca arbolito see me Skinner so stay tuned

well that's the knife in the sheath the sheet itself is really beautiful made out of black leather you can see all the edges are really nicely done no drainage hole by the way you have this strap here to secure the knife which is very secure in the sheath no way no rattling to nothing the belt loop is big enough for a I think it's hard to get a two inch belt but it maybe it's maybe possible beside the strap you have this letter lip there to secure the knife all in all nicely done on the sheath you have this tree brand arbolito by buca which is a really nice logo stamped in there beautiful made very thick letter and really nice it's a nice little shape if we take a look at the knife itself we have this crate on handle which is rubberized material can feel it you won't slip with wet hands if you have this knife because the crater on is very good also tapers as you can see the overall shape of the handle is tapering together you have some jimping right there and also there on the back spine of the blade but this gives it a really nice traction with your index finger also on this check out great and handle you find this go Kari grant up a little logo on both sides and the nice big lanyard hole can see the steel inside there the camera will pick it up so yeah it is a nearly full tank blade the blade design itself is very unique you have this app swipe here on the back the chimp in so get good traction for your thumb you have this choil here so that you can choke up on the plate itself really nice for having very fine stuff you have this false edge on the bag which gives it good stabbing abilities but also a thick stock up to the tip which makes the tip very robust the blade itself is around 4 mil thick light design is hollow ground this is also a little bit hollow ground but the whole of grind itself is not that not that hollow let's say it in this way you can easily grind this to a flat grind if you want but I decided after a few tests that I will leave it in this way because the slicing is amazing also patterning feathers taking all diff all these kind of things very very good with this knife I tested it before what is also very nice about this blade is that you no matter how you hold a knife in your right hand your left hand and different kind of grips it always feels good with no hot spots with no hot spots at all blade length on this knife is 12.2 centimeters which is around 5 inches and handle length is around 11 centimeters which is around four and a half inch feels really good really good in the hand well negative things about this blade in my opinion is this joy although you can't choke up on this blade it feels not right in your hand it would be much better if the grind would come all the way down and goes to here this now gives you a longer blade with a very short cutting edge around 10 centimeters so you would have to one and a half centimeters more of cutting edge if the grind will go all the way down to here which would be nice this small little thing right there is a sharpening groove and this sharpening groove is very important because when you cherie sharpen the edge you can sharpen it all the way back without this groove it may may be difficult to do this all in all this is a really really nice blade for hunting fishing any kind of activity which is near or close to water source when hunting blood and other liquids are coming to the knife and because this is a 440c stainless steel blade which is really good and the kratom handle rubberized material handle is also absolutely waterproof you have no problems with displayed when it comes to water hunting fishing even cutting in the kitchen the recurve the small little recurve here is very good because this guy is biting real deep in the wood and holds the knife there the belly itself is really good for cutting fruits vegetables but also for skinning a deer with this blade I think you are on the right side if you like the design well I love the design that's why I get me one of those so unique design that I really really like justice and information porreca has three different lines on the serious the one which is handmade installing in Germany which is the most expensive line I polka it's around three to four hundred bucks maybe you'll get one of two hundred bucks but very expensive steel is love that super duper just a normal steel then you have the middle range of polka which is dis 12 arbolito series which is made in Argentina and its price ranges around 50 to 100 euros and the cheapest line by boca is the Boca plus serious and the Polka plus serious is made in China although no matter where boca is producing the knife solving in Germany in Argentina or in China doesn't matter because all the quality management is done installing an in Germany
