The Bker 1906 Castle Burg 113324 is a fancy pocket knife with a remarkable story. According to Bker some things are too nice to be lost in time. The design of this knife is an example of this sentiment. After all, this design has been around for over hundred years! Bker revived this design by producing the 1906. The result? A unique pocket knife with a long story and a nod to the past. Exactly as we have grown accustomed to from Bker, one of the best manufacturers of traditional pocket knives. With this 1906 Bker took another step back in time. The blade is namely made from O1 carbon steel. Not stainless, but like how they used to make it. Even easier to sharpen razor-sharp, which is a great advantage. Carbon steel also forms a patina in time. It changes colour because of fruit acids and moisture. That is why a couple drop of oil once in a while will keep it in great shape. Bker helped the blade out with a coarse etched finish. ## Castle Burg – Schloss edition This is a special edition of the famous Bker pocket knife: the Schloss Burg-edition. . Castle Burg is a centuries-old castle in Solingen, Germany, not far from the Bker workshop. The castle was built on the remains of a 10th century fort and was completed in 1133. It is one of the largest castles in the west of Germany and throughout the centuries the inhabitants of Schloss Burg fulfilled important roles. Take, for instance, Count Engelbert II, arch bishop of Cologne. During the renovations parts of the oak frame of Schloss Burg were replaced, and these centuries-old parts were used by Bker to produce this handle. A real piece of history within reach! Only 1133 pieces of this knife were produced. A reference to the year the castle was finished: 1133. Each piece is adorned with a number and a Bker shield with *Baumwerk* logo completes the whole. You open it with two hands and when opened it is locked by a backlock.
