Knife review: Boker Plus Exskelibur 2 & Buck Nobleman: affordable and modern

Most gentlemen knives have classic looks, but there are some that cater for more high tech tastes. Here we have a look at two capable yet affordable compact knives: the Boker Plus Exskelibur 2 (in fact the production version of the Burger EXK1) and the Buck Nobleman. Both are good choices for everyone who likes modern looking compact knives, and watch the video to find out which one I prefer!

The böker looks very nice. Is it sturdy with only a G10-handle/ only one steel-liner?

[MrDagon007]

@MrOnion2001 it's sturdy enough for normal light cutting work - a modern gentlemen knife. It's not designed to cut an old refrigerator open !

The buck is actually a Sanrenmu model 723.

It's still a very good knife.

[MrDagon007]

@cobalt120 I will soon add a few clips on various Sanrenmu knives, and I did plan to compare the Sanrenmu and its twin brother from Buck.

the nobleman knife is a good one i use it in construction all the time but the blade does wear down quick after heavy use but it is a very nice everyday knife to carry

[MrDagon007]

@twistedf3ar It's indeed a nice one but as you notice not ideal for heavy use. Consider a Spyderco Manix, one of the best heavy use workhorses out there.

PS Love your dragons!

I was dissapointed when I found out that it's not actually carbon fiber today at a shop. Was so nice for the price

[gerberboy0100]

very nice!

Great review, as always!
