Boker / Chad Los Banos G4 A First Look

#1

Post by potterma »

Seems to be a serious dearth of pix of the G4, so I thought I'd try to help fix that :)

Presentation (Front) side:

Clip and lock side. You can see here how the liner lock projects above the scale line.

Very nicely centered blade:

Open construction:

Full front side view.

Congrats to Chad and Boker for hitting another one out of the park! This one is going in my pocket for some extended testing. More later!

I'm glad to see that it uses torx screws! Also think its great that they got rid of the old CLB clips-I have an M-Type and I didn't think the clip worked well at all.

Some more nice new knives from Cousin Chad.... haven't seen him around for a while here though. He must be busy in **** :p Will have to drop him a line to find out how things are flying with him in Hilo.

Can't wait to see the reviews guys :)

I just got them as well! I was quite surpised when I opened a box that I was not expecting in the mail to find this knife and a neck knife with an amazing amount of "belly".

Thanks, Chad!!
