Is that the smaller "Squirrel" model?

It is I've had it about 10 years

Apparently, this is a baker's knife, for scoring bread dough before baking!!View attachment 2420317View attachment 2420319

Cool Böker Atlas, Alan; that knife can support the world on its shoulders!
What's the handle material on that one? Is it the standard black steel handle, or something more exotic (or maybe you "distressed" it?)?

Thanks, but to quote Boker it's " a stainless - steel handle in a gritty dark stonewash finish."

Thanks for the info, Alan.
But I went back to look at your photo again, and I've decided it may be a different Atlas model than I've seen before!
Is it a lockback? All the Böker Plus Atlas models I've looked at previously were slipjoints, I think.
And does the 1066 on the blade refer to a variety of carbon steel? I think all of the Atlas models I was aware of used 12C27 Sandvik stainless.
So thanks for introducing me to a new model!

5K Qs It is a backlock. The wharncliffe and spearpoint are slipjoints. I think the 1066 is a serial number because the blade steel is D2. I think you can see the D2 on the pile side by the pivot pin in this photo which I didn't post because of the pocket clip

Thanks for providing even more info, Alan, including the photo showing the D2 steel marking. Weird coincidence with that 1066 serial number.
Cool and interesting knife!

Cool and interesting knife!

Blame Jack Jack Black he was the enabler when he posted the Slipjoint version in copper.

A Farmer is my only metal knife this week in my "official" carry.


But this recently-arrived brass Coursolle Plowman is readily available on the kitchen table for my inspection and use:
