6 blades is enough for me. It's like a potato in your pocket.

Tony, what do they wind up weighing with six blades?

I've never weighed one, they are heavy of course but not as heavy as you might think.

A Sowbelly single-blade slip joint w/semi skinner blade....for skinning snakes? (All those S's sounded good together, I couldn't help myself.

)

Actually Tony made this knife for a guy in Great Britain...something about a friend named Chuck, who is a prince of a guy from Wales...something like that

anyway I digress...and the guy is going to use this knife to skin rabbits. I'm serious. I don't make this stuff up folks.

Well, some of it may be a stretch but it's definitely a knife made well enough for royalty. This is going to make one helluva bunny cutter!

That sharp semi-skinner sits satisfied and sassy in that stunning sowbelly!!

I surmise it's a stupendous slicer!!

Sounds like a good Easter present!

To save us from the slippery slope of s-hijacking, I will strive to slide us back to the beauty of that knife!

That bunny-butcher is gonna enjoy working with that beauty! (I am NOT trying to B-hijack!!

)
There is an irony here!! English (Sheffield) knives used to come to us in North America, as the best quality working knives!
I detect a bit of turnabout!!

I have the Tony Bose Single Blade Sowbelly Prototype with Pearl handle, but not that killer semi-skinner blade.(Sorry for the crappy photo) I would love to drop that in the opposite pocket of my pearl sowbelly! I have many Bose knives, my favorite being any with Stag, but I almost always have that Sowbelly in my pocket! The way it feels in the hand...the beautiful shape...it is just perfect. Congrats to whoever ends up with that beauty! Great Job again Tony! You are the best!

I haven't seen many pictures of Tony's knives with pearl, that one is a beauty!

**rickmenefee** · 12-01-2009, 02:57 PM

The sowbelly is quite a knife. Piss on the prince send it to okie-land!

Well, how about a few more then?

And Reese has been known to use mop too:

**wagglebee** · 12-01-2009, 06:03 PM

Thanks raydbonz, those are all gorgeous. I would love to have that doctor's knife.

**duckman1** · 12-01-2009, 06:07 PM

That sowbelly is a beauty. It that called a royal sowbelly? They should knight him for that one. Sir Tony Bose.

**SharpNJ** · 12-01-2009, 07:54 PM

Love the lines on that sowbelly - they really flow!

No Rick, he's an 80 pound lap dog. He follows me everywhere I go.

Yeah, Reese has been known to use MOP on occasion. He makes a pretty good knife, too.

I think that this knife originally belonged to Mike Robuck. It was posted earlier in the thread. I'm posting it again because I like to, and I can still link to Mike's albums (hopefully, with his folksy permission).

The colors in the pearl remind me of the Aurora Borealis.
