I found this Boker at a Antique mall today. This mall has lots of nice straights but they are priced about double to triple what they are worth and some even more. This Boker is in very good condition. The leather case is still very readable and not falling apart. No rust, or devils spit. Just patina. It is marked Red Injun No. 301 RP. It's a 11/16 full hollow. The scales are dirty but should clean up nicely.

Nice grab I love the scales! I would just hone it and use it if it were mine! Love the look of using something that looks as old as it is! If you do restore it make sure to follow up with MORE PICS!

Hmm, think I had one in SOTD a while back with 2 of them but my pics suck!
Alright, this was my first, which I had honed by a local knife guy:
My second, with some Ducky company:
No pics of the 3rd yet. There's a crack in one of the scales that needs to be stabilized but I have already shaved with it. Mine are all Square-point 101s.Last edited by thatsilverguy; 05-07-2012 at 07:10 PM. Reason: Pics, as demanded :P

Cool razor. Love those scales. Anybody know how many versions of the injun Boker made? 101, 102, 301 any more?

Nice find, it should polish up nicely. Had a 101 with black scales with the logo on that I sold.

i used to date a chick named patina....a nice walk in the woods helps me relax and relieves tension....
the fact i'm dragging a shovel and a body should be irrelevant...
