Boker Plus tenshi brass – a compact folding knife brought to life through a collaboration with Japanese knife designer Kansei Matsuno. This beauty seamlessly merges Asian style with modern manufacturing techniques and materials.

The blade is made from vg-10 steel – a highly sought-after Japanese alloy, enriched with cobalt and molybdenum. Its standout feature is its impressive corrosion resistance, and the hardness ensures that the edge remains sharp for an extended period. This steel is commonly found in mid-range knives, thanks to its perfect balance of cost and quality.

The handle is crafted from brass – a metal that holds up well under pressure treatment. It boasts relatively high mechanical properties and satisfactory corrosion resistance. While comparing brass to bronze, it’s worth noting that their strength, corrosion resistance, and friction-reducing properties are notably lower. Brass tends to be less stable in air, seawater, carbonic acid solutions, and many organic acids.
