My first Boker plus

Thanks for starting something on this page.
My first Boker was a red bone handled folding hunter (?) that I saw in a hardware store window in Austria when I was on vacation many years ago. I fell in love with the red bone and the size was just right, except the width. It was just too wide for my everyday use.
Later I bought the titanium handled knife with 440c blade and it won't wear out or break so I'm still carrying it. Truthfully I'm getting a little bored with it but still a great knife. Certainly the best I've used (maybe not owned).
I noticed recently that a really beat up double blade knife that I have in my shop is a Boker. It was so covered with glue etc I didn't know what brand it was, just that it had servived many years and terrible abuse. My one question about this knife is, now that I know it's a Boker, do I have to take better care of it?
Thaks again for starting this thread.
