A Piece Of History Comes To Life - On April 1, 1939, The Tirpitz, Named After Fleet Admiral Alfred Von Tirpitz, Was Christened And Launched In Wilhelmshaven. Since Then, A Larger Battleship Has Never Been Built Again In Europe. Now, 80 Years Later, Boker Is Presenting The Special Edition Tirpitz-Damascus Gold As A Reminder That Western Europe Suffered Through Two World Wars And Has Been Living In Peace And Liberty Since 1945. The Enormous Battleship Was Sunk In 1944 Off The Norwegian Coast. Right After The End Of World War Ii, A Norwegian Company Sent Experts To Salvage The Ship'S Wreck, In Order To Make The Highly Alloyed Steel Available For Civilian Purposes. Boker Received Some Parts Of The Salvaged Armoring Of The Tirpitz. Boker'S Damascus Blacksmith Took These Pieces Of Living History And Forged An Exclusive And Exceptional Steel With A Fascinating History.
