Böker Plus Sanjo Gentleman Pocket Knife – VG-10 Tanto Blade, Burlap Micarta

The Böker Plus Sanjo is playful without being gimmicky, exciting without being loud – a refined gentleman’s folder with real daily carry capability. Designed by Guy Poggetti (Marseille, France) and named after the town of Sanjo in Niigata, Japan, the knife follows a clean neo-Japanese aesthetic with carefully balanced materials and details.

The knife features a ball-bearing VG-10 Tanto blade that handles everyday cutting tasks with calm efficiency. The flipper disappears fully between the stainless steel liners when opened, keeping the profile tidy. A robust liner lock secures the blade, while the stonewash-style look is echoed across the build for a coherent, premium feel. The handle scales are made from brown burlap micarta, with a matching micarta backspacer for a warm, understated finish.

Warnings & Safety Information

• Cut hazard: Blades are sharp and can cause serious cuts. Always cut away from your body and keep fingers clear of the edge.
• Risk of slipping: Excessive force or poor technique can cause the knife to slip. Maintain stable grip and controlled cutting.
• Drop hazard: Do not leave knives unsecured near edges or where they can fall and injure someone.
• Dull blades are dangerous: A dull knife requires more force and can slip more easily. Sharpen regularly using proper tools.
• Use as intended: Do not use the knife as a pry bar, screwdriver, or lever tool. Misuse can damage the blade and cause injury.
