Description
Timeless engineering meets rich history with the Boker Plus P-51 Damast by Steve Kelly, a designer knife that embodies exceptional character. Inspired by the iconic North American P-51 Mustang, this knife mirrors the material, shape and color of the legendary 1940s fighter plane, almost creating a replica of its historical counterpart. Between 1940 and 1948, approximately 15,800 units of the low-wing aircraft were produced across various versions, making it one of the most frequently built military aircraft in history. The P-51 D Series, the most common variant, accounted for nearly 8,000 of these models. Known for its aerodynamic full-metal design, highlighted by distinctive countersunk studs, the P-51 Mustang's groundbreaking performance was powered by the powerful Packard Merlin V-1650 engine, enabling it to reach speeds of up to 700 km/h and achieve an impressive range of 3,300 km. These innovations played a crucial role in securing air supremacy for the United States Army Air Forces during World War II.
