SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Boker Plus The Dace Aluminum is a lightweight, high-performance folding knife built for those who value speed, precision, and reliability in a slim EDC package. Designed by knifemaker Brad Zinker, this knife blends modern styling with everyday practicality, offering clean lines and exceptional cutting power in a compact frame. Its Nitro-V stainless steel blade delivers outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness—ready for daily tasks or hard use when the job demands it.
The satin-finished drop point blade deploys smoothly on ball bearings with a quick flick of the flipper tab, locking solidly into place with a secure linerlock mechanism. The action is fast, crisp, and reliable, giving you confidence with every open. Its precision grind and fine tip make it perfect for detailed work while maintaining enough strength for heavier cutting.
The anodized aluminum handle scales reduce weight without compromising durability, creating a sleek, sturdy grip that feels balanced and responsive in the hand. Textured machining adds subtle traction, while the clean silver-gray finish gives it a refined, professional look. A deep-carry pocket clip keeps it discreet and ready for use, and the lanyard hole adds an extra option for customization or carry.
Compact yet capable, The Dace slips easily into a pocket, tool roll, or pack, making it a trusted companion for anyone who values craftsmanship and performance in one refined design.
