Overview of the Böker Plus Thunder Storm Satin | 01BO791N
A Compact Tactical Folder Built for Real Work
The Böker Plus Thunder Storm Satin 01BO791N is a manual-opening tactical folding knife with a 2.83-inch satin AUS-8 steel blade and black aluminum handle scales. At 3.6 ounces, it rides in your pocket all shift without weighing you down.
Boris Manasherov, a gunsmith, engineer, and Krav Maga instructor since 1973, designed this Böker Plus knife for fast, secure handling. A pronounced finger choil and ridges on the blade spine and handle keep your grip locked in, whether you hold it forward or switch to a reverse grip.
Ready When Glass Is in the Way
A tungsten carbide glass breaker sits at the end of the handle, so patrol officers, EMTs, and tow operators can break a vehicle window in an emergency without reaching for a second tool. Böker states that the included tool lets you swap the breaker for a flat plate when you don't need it.

Intended Users
Patrol officers and deputies get a light duty-belt or pocket knife with a built-in window breaker for vehicle extractions. EMTs, paramedics, and firefighters can cut straps and clothing and reach trapped occupants faster. Tow operators and security officers carry it for daily cutting tasks and roadside emergencies. Knife collectors who follow Boris Manasherov's designs will value its practical, combat-informed layout.
