Some knife models by Böker have the number 42 in their names. What's the meaning of this number? This video sheds some light on the mysterious number and the German weapon law.

  • I want to thank you for this video even though it's old. Thanks to it I was able to take my lovely Rad from Trier to Kochem and then travel around in my car without breaking any german laws. In fact, when I drove back from Switzerland I was pulled over by the border guards and they did check my pocketknife. My normal EDC (A tenacious or a OHO Wenger Ranger) would have landed me in ein grösser Schwierigkeit but luckily due to you I was fine.

    Danke!

  • @903lew You are welcome! ;-) I hope you had a great time in Germany.

  • Ich Spiele Schimme gern! Is that a good sentence?

  • @BiliousPizza I'm sorry, your sentence doesn't sound German. What would you like to say? "I like swimming"?

  • @stschmalhaus Well More like I am swimming, I started German class a week ago or so. What about " I reiten rahd"?

  • @BiliousPizza

    "I am swimming." = "Ich schwimme."

    "I am riding bicycle." = "Ich fahre Rad."

    In German you can only ride animals (horses, donkeys, camels, etc.).. ;-)

  • Your videos are great! Clear and concise :D

  • @stschmalhaus

    Always! It's strange how underrated Germany is as a tourist destination. The Mosel was...simply magical by bike and the best bit was that while me and my father could ride our bikes all day my mother (who isn't such a fan) could take the boat down the river. History, culture, beautiful scenery, great food and of course very nice wine at a very good price. Oh, und alles sprechen deutsch! ^^

  • @stschmalhaus Oh I thought you needed a verb for swimming.

  • @stschmalhaus Sorry, Schwimme

  • @BiliousPizza Eh... what is "Schimme"?
