Why they keep putting cock screw on everything?
Thank god not ring!
Just for reference, BladeHQ has also made a video introducing various models:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lY8hGNM8V_8&list=TLRLg0Wr-NnNkxODA5MjAxNQ
Can one of you guys that have one of these try to cut a clothing tag with the scissors and report back. This is my test for good scissors...most MTs fail. Thanks!
The weird dislike: The serrated blade. It has a medium-small screwdriver flat blade at the tip and is VERY stout for its length. But it opens to about a 45 degree angle to the knife, making use of the screwdriver tip very iffy, scarily so considering if the driver slips, you're raking a serrated blade across whatever you were driving. The angle makes sense given a primary use of the blade as a cord or strap cutter, but I'm not even going to attempt using it as a screwdriver.
So far the scissors are very disappointing. Anyone else with one have the same experience or did I just get a dud?

Not a patch on Victorinox scissors of course, but at least as good as Leatherman Juice scissors. And way better than the set of SOG scissors that I have.

So having come back to this thread after some time I’ve realised my love for the Boker has gone. It sits in the bowl with my other EDC gear and I tend not to pick it up too much. Thinking about it, my Victorinox tools are being picked up and used as ever, but not the Boker. It’s OK, it does some things well (nice big blade, good clip), but there are other features that is doesn’t (see others comments above!). Don’t get me wrong, it’s a very well made tool, just needs a bit more design to get it spot on right in every way. Considering it’s the MK1 version I think they did well. I really hope that Boker continue and make more tools, and develop the range over time.Maybe we are spoilt by the likes of Victorinox who have been amking tools for some time now, Boker just have a bit of catching up to do.

Not too shabby at all (especially for the price). Nice wide main blade, pocket clip and scales, as well as tool snap and build quality which generally are nice - lots of space between the tools though, seems they wanted to include liners between all the separate tools and these, combined with the wide tool tangs make for relatively inefficient use of space compared to Vic.I haven't read through all the posts above, but none of those I did read mentioned a glass breaker pin at the end opposite the main blade pivot. Might be a recent(ish) addition. If anyone is interested I can post a pic.
