Boker Magnum Japanese Iris is a sleek, lightweight pocket knife perfect for everyday carry, yet priced higher than most. The name hints at its design roots in the traditional japanese blade known as the kwaiken. This knife features a flip mechanism for rapid deployment, securing itself with a reliable liner lock when fully opened. The handle is crafted from lightweight aluminum, while the blade is made from 440A stainless steel, which is easy to sharpen and resistant to rust. This is an excellent companion for daily tasks.

The 440A blade material is an American-made stainless steel that falls into the mid-range category. With a hardness rating of 54-57 HRC, it boasts good corrosion resistance, making it ideal for use in diving conditions where it faces harsh saltwater environments without issue.

The handle, built from aluminum, is renowned for its strength and is a favorite in the knife and tactical communities. When exposed to oxygen, aluminum forms a protective oxide layer that shields it from environmental damage.
